Metacafe

Metacafe is a community based video sharing web site, that specializes in short-form original entertainment, where users upload, view and share video clips.

The company is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with offices in Tel Aviv and New York. Metacafe is privately held and its investors include Accel Partners, Benchmark Capital, DAG Ventures and Highland Capital Partners.

In its early years, Metacafe was similar to other video viewing websites such as YouTube or Dailymotion, but has since transformed itself into a short-form video entertainment site with several differences. Core differentiators include duplication elimination, a different type of Adult content filtering, a community member reviewer panel and VideoRank as well as the production and sourcing of exclusive video clips and the programming and curation by editors of relevant video clips. The site focuses on and features short-form videos in a variety of entertainment-related categories, including Movies, Video Games, TV, Sports and Music. In addition to its own production, original content is uploaded to the site by independent video creators, small to mid-sized production groups, and major media companies.
