TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - November 14, 2016) - Keek (
"We are very excited about this opportunity as it provides both our users with the highest quality content while also allowing us to demonstrate Peeks' ability to generate new transactional and advertising revenues for sophisticated content creators. As the Peeks service grows, we want to ensure we have a strong foundation for user engagement and retention. Providing access to relevant recent video content from major media outlets is a large part of this, however we are also focused on attracting the internet's top content producers and bringing professionally produced interactive live content to the platform," said Mark Itwaru, CEO of Keek.
The licensed content is expected to begin appearing inside the Peeks apps in January 2017, following the completion of a user interface ("UI") upgrade. The new UI will bring improved categorization to the platform and will replace the "explore" tool with a "discovery" tool to allow for improved content recommendation and additional featured content space. In addition, the new UI will include other changes to maintain and improve the user experience following the recent increase in activity on the service. The upgrades will take place in stages over the coming weeks.
The Peeks app can be downloaded in either the Apple or Google app stores, or by visiting www.peeks.com.
