Thank you 🙏 @pollock for hunting Hearo 🎯. Three years ago we had a simple idea. Watching should be as social as playing. Two billion people love talking and playing games together. Now everyone with a phone or PC can talk and watch games, sports, TV shows, movies or YouTube together too, like watching together on a cozy couch. 🛋 The idea was simple, but the engineering was hard. We had to build one of the first 100% software based smart TVs. Then we had to customize it to be the first #MultiplayerTV, with crystal clear voice chat and echo cancellation, so you can watch and talk without feedback. Our group audio might remind you of ClubHouse, but instead of just talking about music, shows, games or sports, you can also see and hear what you’re talking about. Hearo = ClubHouse + !Apple-TV. And it’s free! 💸 Thankfully we’ve gotten great support from our early investors, particularly the ~2,000 investors on https://republic.co/hearo-live. Our equity crowdfunding campaign ends soon, on Jan. 15 2021. You can invest from $100 to $100,000. 💰 We hope you like Hearo and we want to hear from you. Share your comments and feedback here in Product Hunt, email me at Super@Hearo.Live, join our Discord server https://discord.gg/FAjjSF2 or connect with me on Hearo. I'm Ned#4868 🦸‍♂️ Thanks @chiyeuk @dwight_k @reihearo @vlhaseman and the whole Hearo team 😅

Hello Hunters. I'm Victor and I lead marketing for @hearo working with @chiyeuk, @nedlern and the rest of the team. Online video is a professional passion of mine. And I've worked on some truly memorable projects. But 9 out of 10 times I've concentrated on content creation, playback quality, discovery, sharing, and measurement. At Hearo we're focused on an entirely new challenge: transforming video and TV consumption from a passive, solo-watching experience to a truly social one that connects you to friends across the country and the world with the same realtime immediacy of playing Call of Duty War Zone. That's why we call Hearo #MultiplayerTV. We think you'll like the way we've combined the utility of a smart TV with flawless voice chat so you can watch, talk, and in listen all in sync. Kick the tires on your own with friends or reach out to me for a quick demo. Meanwhile, tell us your questions? What would you like to know about the product?

What do people think of Hearo versus Clubhouse? I see Clubhouse as next generation radio, and Hearo as next generation TV. Both are great, global markets.

We're going to host an inauguration party. So if you haven't tried Hearo yet, join us for a big party on Jan 20th at 3pm Eastern time. It's easy. Download and install Hearo. Enter your user name, and tap on our party - it should the top listing. :) https://washington.org/dc-guide-...

How does this product differentiate from scener.com?

Hey @william_gendron, if I'm not mistaken, Scener is primarily a Chrome extension and recently debuted their beta mobile app (iOS only). So, they are a limited cross platform product with geo restrictions. Hearo launched globally (except for China), fully cross play and cross platform on mobile (android and iOS), desktop, and it also offer a plugin for businesses. Another thing I should point out is that most watch party apps are text-chat and co-watch or watch (mini hollywood square for participants) and co-watch... people mostly end up watching other participants' faces than the show/movie itself and could be distracting. Picture, Zoom conference for movies. So in short, while some of the use cases overlap, our application can be very different. Hearo is a platform agnostic hub, Scener is a limited standalone platform. We are all learning to become better, but I hope you like Hearo better! PS.

@william_gendron To echo what @dwight_k said. We're full screen, TV, live streams and VoDs, mobile first (though now with Mac/PC/web too) and state of the art echo cancelation. Scener has competing videos/screens - so part screen video, no TV or livestream support, is purely a browser extension (either doesn't work at all or drains your mobile batteries), problems with echo cancellation. That being said Scener is best of class for a Chrome Extension. We're built off a custom smart TV stack - a lot more engineering, a lot more power, a lot more interesting to partners who want a virtual theater or stadium.

Great points, Dwight. 🙏🏽 Here’s a few notable differentiators. We work on Windows and macOS PCs. All of our app experiences are native experiences. This let’s us capitalize on delivering a HD-quality, full screen experience and optimize voice chat to eliminate echo. Also keep in mind that we support live U.S. TV: ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, NBCSN, TNT and more. They all are supported in Hearo. All you and your friends need to do is login with your cable sunscription to watch the NFL playoffs, NBA basketball, and college sports. Keep the questions coming. We’d love this forum to he a helpful FAQ for other Hunters who discover us.
