The Mission.

KINO was started with a mission: to make the film/tv industry more equitable for all. Hollywood is broken and by opening doors through technology we can forge a better film/tv industry for filmmakers and fans alike.

Storytelling changes the world and innovation is the key to unlocking the stories the world needs to hear. We’re here to make film and television more efficient, equitable and engaging.

What is KINO?

KINO is an app that lets you enjoy a Hollywood premiere from the comfort of your home. You're not just watching the movie before it hits streaming; you're also interacting with the stars themselves. No one else does this.

KINO’s interactive dual-screen experience lets you watch the film on your Smart TV... while using your mobile device to submit questions, enter giveaways, and participate in a live Q&A after the show!

“Film and TV loses billions yearly to bloated distribution, guesswork decisions, weak sales funnels, marketing waste, and shady accounting.”

DARIL FANNIN, CEO/CO-FOUNDER

What is ScreenKey?

KINO’s B2B offering: ScreenKey is the next-generation secure streaming platform designed for the film industry. With piracy costing the industry tens of billions, ScreenKey helps filmmakers, distributors, and studios securely share films without sacrificing convenience. Built by experts who have developed software for government agencies (DHS, TSA, etc.), ScreenKey delivers industry-leading security, instant screeners, and seamless streaming across 19,000+ supported TV devices—even on in-flight WiFi.

Its user-friendly interface allows screeners to be shared in just two clicks, balancing convenience with security. Additionally, ScreenKey offers a multi-device connect mode, enabling users to stream on one device while taking notes on another, facilitating efficient collaboration.

THE FUTURE OF FILM ⋆

Film Security.

Industry Leading Security.
Built by experts who’ve built secure systems for top-tier government agencies (Dept of Homeland Security, TSA, etc.) That same rigor and attention to detail now protects content on KINO. From encrypted livestreams to hardened infrastructure, every layer is designed to keep your assets locked down. In an industry where leaks can cost millions—or careers—we make sure they’re not even a possibility.

AI.

Smart Discovery for Fans. Smart Insights for Studios.
KINO helps fans find exactly what they’re looking for—even if it’s a 1970s Korean indie sci-fi romcom. Our AI-powered discovery engine makes it easy to surface hidden gems based on mood, genre mashups, or niche interests.

On the B2B side, ScreenKey turns viewer data into real insight. If 5,000 Americans watch your screener, we’ll show you what resonated—scene skips, replays, watch drop-offs, and sentiment signals—so you know what’s working, what’s not, and why. No guesswork. Just actionable takeaways.

Interactivity.

Engagement That Goes Beyond the Screen.
KINO turns passive viewing into a shared event. Fans can submit questions live, vote in polls, enter giveaways, and join Q&As with talent—all from their phones. Studios can tailor the experience to fit the film, the audience, or the moment. Want cast commentary? Fan trivia? Exclusive behind-the-scenes content? It's all built in. This isn’t second screen—it’s next screen.

ScreenKey brings that same dual-screen power to industry workflows. Filmmakers can collect live feedback during test screenings, festivals can streamline judging, and film schools can turn screenings into interactive learning. From dubbing sessions to awards voting, ScreenKey makes collaboration real-time and effortless.

White Labeling / OTT

Want a fully branded streaming experience without building it from scratch? KINO’s white-label OTT solution lets you launch your own secure, high-performance platform—fast. Custom branding, content control, and user analytics come standard. Whether you're a distributor launching a festival or a studio building your own hub, KINO delivers the backend. You own the experience.
