About TvTak



TvTak is an innovative platform for instant interaction on television shows, games and commercials.

TvTak makes every television interactive. Viewers point their smartphone or tablet at their television screen, TvTak identifies the program in a second and allows viewers to interact instantly. TvTak is available on iOS and Android and works on any television set using unique patent-pending video recognition algorithms.

TvTak is located in NYC, with an R&D lab in Omer Industrial Park in Israel and local offices in Brazil, Mexico, Spain and the United Kingdom.

TvTak was selected from 130 innovative startups as a winner of the PepsiCo10 contest sponsored by PepsiCo. TvTak was voted Best Demo at the Social TV Summit in Los Angeles and Tech Aviv New York in July 2011, and was selected in Technonomy3 in Tel Aviv in April 2011.
