SportVot claims to have streamed over 5 lakh matches across 30+ countries, reaching an audience base of more than 100 million viewers. The platform is also seeing growing traction across international markets, including North America, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.
The startup follows a multi-revenue model, offering production and streaming solutions to tournament organisers, leagues, and sports associations, while also generating revenue through subscriptions, pay-per-view access, and advertising partnerships.
SportVot had previously raised ₹9.4 crore in a pre-Series A round led by Omidyar Network India in 2024.
The company competes with platforms like CricHeroes and FanCode in India’s growing sports-tech and grassroots sports ecosystem.
