Built to remove gatekeeping

WatchVIM is designed as a filmmaker-first platform that helps creators package, submit, promote, and report on their titles with clear requirements and accessible pricing.

Free distribution path
Eligible filmmakers can submit for WatchVIM platform consideration and receive Amazon Prime Video submission support with no upfront distribution fee. Final publication, storefront acceptance, and go-live timing are subject to each platform’s review, technical requirements, and approval process.

Extended distribution for $39.99/year
Creators who want wider reach can choose annual extended distribution support for iTunes / Apple TV, Tubi, Roku, and Google Play. This option is built for indie filmmakers who need affordable platform delivery without losing control of their work.
