  • Media Jobs Interviews: Laugh.ly The Digital Comedy Play

    21 JUL 2016 · We talk with Dave Scott, the CEO of Laugh.ly about how he expects to turn comedy into a lucrative business. Listen in to learn about how profitable a laugh can be. "The reason I started Laugh.ly was because I actually did stand-up comedy for a year. After I sold my last company, I did open mics and then worked my way up to big headliners and I realized how much people love comedy. In fact, of the 160 people that actually have accounts on Facebook, 91 million of them actually say that stand-up comedy is one of their top five interests. Over 50 million tickets were sold last year to comedy clubs in the United States. That means it's lot of people who love to laugh, and so what we wanted to do was to create a built-from-the-ground-up streaming app focused primarily on stand-up comedy."

Current "talk" solutions utilize body movements however they do not truly enable the individuals to actually speak. Talkitt is unique in that it is an inexpensive smart phone app that will use the users own voice to communicate. Imagine having something to say but no way to communicate it. Talkitt’s Chief Executive (CEO) Danny Weissberg came up with the idea in Israel back in 2012 after his grandmother had a stroke that severely impaired her speech. We spoke with Talkitt's US head of Business Development, Sara Smolley to learn more about this yet to be released product.
