Our Story

We're Building the Future of Interactive Streaming

Tangia started with a simple belief: a live stream should feel like a conversation, not a performance.

How We Got Here

From Frustrated Streamers to a Platform That Fixes It

Tangia was founded in San Francisco by a team of streamers who kept running into the same wall. The tools available for live engagement were either too clunky, too expensive, or too disconnected from how real communities actually worked on stream.

Dan Goodman spent years streaming before starting Tangia. He watched countless creators pour their energy into content that audiences consumed passively — showing up for a broadcast the way they'd watch pre-recorded video. The chat was alive, but nothing in the tools actually used it.

The insight behind Tangia was straightforward: the most engaging moments in live streaming happen when the audience has agency. When they can affect the stream. When their voice — literally — gets heard.

So we built the platform we always wanted. Venture-backed and headquartered in San Francisco, Tangia now serves over 50,000 active creators across Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok.

What Drives Us

Our Mission

"To make every live stream an experience worth being part of — for creators and audiences alike."

We believe interactive streaming is still in its early innings. The tools that exist today barely scratch the surface of what's possible when a creator and their community are truly in sync. Tangia is our answer to that gap — and we're just getting started.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Innovation

We ship features that didn't exist yesterday. The streaming landscape changes fast and Tangia moves faster — not for the sake of it, but because our creators deserve tools that match where live content is actually going, not where it was two years ago.

Creator-First

Every decision at Tangia starts with the creator. Not the platform. Not the algorithm. When something we build doesn't make a streamer's life easier or their audience more engaged, we don't ship it. Full stop.

Community

The best feedback we've ever gotten came from our own Discord. We build in public where we can, respond to DMs, and treat the streamers using Tangia as partners in making it better. Community isn't a channel for us — it's the whole point.

Transparency

We tell creators what we're working on, what broke, and why. No jargon, no spin. When we make a mistake, we own it publicly and fix it fast. Trust is the hardest thing to earn and the easiest to lose — we don't take it lightly.
