Our Story

Built by curious people, for curious people.

tonboTV was founded on a stubborn belief: edutainment shouldn't sit behind a paywall. The best documentaries, the most useful explainers, the most human storytelling — all of it should be free, supported by advertising done right.

The why.

Streaming got expensive, fragmented, and forgettable. Curiosity got pushed to premium tiers. We built tonboTV to put it back where it belongs — in the open, free to anyone with a screen.

The how.

A 50/50 non-exclusive revenue split with creators. A multicultural editorial team. A linear channel and an on-demand library. And the discipline to keep saying no to subscription fees.
