cin is now live at cin.1ar.io.
A private screening-room platform for independent filmmakers selling directly to their audiences.
What makes cin different
- Your commercial relationship: Your Stripe account processes viewer payments and cin takes no percentage of normal rental revenue
- Your frontend: Keep and customize the audience experience on your domain
- Rental that respects time: Window starts on play, not purchase. No wasted hours
- Pre-purchase campaigns: Gated extras for early supporters. Behind-the-scenes, director notes
- Managed delivery: cin operates checkout, access, playback, encoding, hosting, and release infrastructure while the subscription is active
Who it’s for
Independent studios and filmmakers releasing one film (or a few) directly to audiences. You’ve probably shown at festivals. You’re probably tired of distributors taking 50%.
Your film doesn’t belong in a content library. It doesn’t need an algorithm to find its people.
cin is managed infrastructure, not a marketplace. The filmmaker owns the domain, frontend, audience relationship, and Stripe account.
