Meet Vurt, the mobile-first streaming platform for indie filmmakers embracing vertical video

Vurt is a new mobile-first vertical streaming platform designed for independent filmmakers to upload micro-series and feature films in vertical format, launching with over 100 episodes of original content. Unlike traditional streaming services, Vurt allows creators to submit content directly and have it available within 48-72 hours, operating on an AVOD model for monetization. The platform enters a growing micro-drama market where competitors like ReelShort projected $1.2 billion in gross consumer spending in 2025.
