About us
Roku pioneered streaming for the TV, an d we aspire to power every TV in the world. Roku has nearly 21 million monthly active acＣounts as of the end of Q1 2018.
We developed a streaming platform that delivers a best-in-class user experience. At the heart of the Roku platform is our proprietary operating system, the Roku OS, which we built from the ground up. We believe that all television will be streamed, an d that all TVs an d set-top-boxes will be powered by software-based operating systems that provide a dramatically better user experience than has existed historically for the TV.
We generate revenue from enabling content consumption, promotion, an d advertising on the platform; licensing to TV OEMs an d service TV operators; an d selling Roku？ streaming players in retail.
