A NEW PROGRAMMING FORMAT FOR LIVE CREATORS
Where fans help decide what happens next.
Syde turns a live stream into a shared decision. The creator opens a bounded choice, fans pick a Syde, the vote locks, the Reveal lands — and the consequence changes what happens next. Run it every show and you have a Syde Stream.

Live pre-alpha demo environment. Demo Room activity is synthetic.
The problem
Billions of hours watched. Almost nothing decided.
Live audiences are enormous — and audience agency is still the exception, not the format.
Chat scrolls past.
Reactions vanish in seconds. Almost none of it counts for anything.
Outcomes fans never shape.
The moments people watch most are decided without the people watching.
Participation is a widget.
Polls and predictions sit in a sidebar. Nothing about the content changes because of them.

The Syde Moment
One decision. The whole audience makes it.
A bounded decision the creator opens beside the live stream — voted, revealed, acted on.
01
Pick a Syde
Fans choose inside the space the creator defined. One free vote each.
02
Suspense
The vote locks. Results stay masked — only the count of Syders is shown.
03
Reveal
The winning side lands, live, for everyone at once.
04
Consequence
The creator acts on it. The content changes. That's the payoff.
05
Next Moment
Each Moment sets up the next. Repeated, they become a Syde Stream.

“Creators define the possibility space. Fans decide inside it.”
Repeated Moments become a Syde Stream — a repeatable programming format a creator can run every show.
The product · working pre-alpha
Built end to end — from discovery to Reveal.
Discovery surfaces live decisions. The Room puts the vote beside the stream. The Moment Engine lets a creator author, queue, open and Reveal Moments in seconds. Identity persists across all of it.
The Room. Vote beside the stream — results masked until the Reveal; only the participation count is shown.
Discovery. Live decisions, not just live streams — across gaming, action sports and music.
Moment Engine. Creators author, queue, open, close and Reveal Moments live.
Identity that travels.
Every Moment you join builds a profile that follows you into every Room — XP, levels, avatars and cosmetics. Participation stops disappearing when the stream ends.
All screenshots are from Syde's live pre-alpha demo environment. Demo Room activity is synthetic; no creator affiliation implied.
Creators & fans
A format, not a widget.
For creators
A programming format you can run every show.
- Author, queue, open and Reveal Moments in seconds — no setup between shows.
- Your audience decides inside the space you define, never outside it.
- Every Reveal is a moment worth clipping; every clip carries the format.
- Status and identity compound in your Room — the audience that shows up keeps showing up.
For fans
A real say in what happens — and an identity that travels.
- One free vote in every Moment. Your pick counts the same as anyone's.
- Results stay masked until the Reveal — no bandwagons, no buying the outcome.
- XP, levels and cosmetics that follow you across creators.
- No signup wall to participate; signing up saves your progress.
The vote is free
Free to participate. Depth is the business.
One person, one vote — always free.
Core participation is never paywalled.
Money never changes vote weight or outcome.
Revenue is designed to surround participation — identity and cosmetics, creator-linked goods, and community-funded content unlocks — never to buy influence.
The economy runs in virtual currency today; real-money features come only after legal review.
Why now
Live is massive. Participation is going mainstream.

Decision-native entertainment is becoming expected behavior. Platforms have participation mechanics; none offers a format creators own, or an identity that travels across them. That seat is open.
For brands · eventually
Sponsored participation, without ever buying the outcome.
Down the road, brands will be able to sponsor Moments — clearly labeled, and never able to change a fair vote. It isn't live today; it comes after creator pilots prove the format.
Audiences want a say. We built where they get one.
