Description: CURI Curiositystream October 26, 2025

CuriosityStream Inc. (NASDAQ:CURI) is a U.S.-based media and entertainment firm that produces factual, documentary-style video and audio content across science, history, society, nature, lifestyle and technology. The library is delivered directly to consumers via its subscription-video-on-demand (SVoD) platform on internet-connected devices, and indirectly through distribution partners that bundle CuriosityStream titles into larger streaming or linear packages, as well as through bulk-sale licensing, educational talks and courses.

Key operating metrics as of the latest filing show roughly 5 million global subscribers with an average revenue per user (ARPU) of $4.90 per month and a churn rate near 8 % annually-both in line with niche streaming peers. The company’s growth is tied to macro trends such as continued cord-cutting, rising demand for ad-free, niche-content subscriptions, and the expanding global broadband penetration that fuels device-agnostic streaming. Margin improvement has been driven by a low-cost, in-house production model and scalable licensing agreements, allowing EBITDA margins to edge above 15 % in 2023.
