How it started

History

i.TV was founded in 2008 by Brad Pelo, who is CEO, and Justin Whittaker. Pelo previously co-founded Folio Corporation and was founding CEO of the parent company of Ancestry.com, among other ventures and projects.

In May 2011 i.TV and AOL together re-launched AOL's online destination for TV viewers, AOL TV, based on i.TV's technology platform. AOL TV receives 1.6 million hits per day.

In November 2013 i.TV acquired GetGlue, maker of a leading second screen and social TV check-in platform. Headquartered in New York City, GetGlue reportedly has over 4.5 million registered users.

In January 2014 i.TV launched tvtag, a second screen iPhone app that provides a feed of television moments that users can then share, doodle on and comment on in a variety of ways. These moments in a “tagline” are captured and curated by a team of 50 staffers.

A year later, tvtag was shut down.
