OurScreen

What OurScreen does

OurScreen is a private, for-profit company founded in 2014 and headquartered in Campbeltown, United Kingdom, that operates an online platform enabling users to find cinemas screening the specific films they want to watch. The product is a consumer-facing cinema-discovery service that addresses a niche demand-signal problem: matching audiences to venues showing particular titles outside of mainstream blockbuster marketing channels. The company is structured with a co-CEO leadership model, with David Kapur and Ian Cartwright listed as co-founders, and the organization is micro-scale with 1-10 employees.

No product architecture, technology stack, monetization model, or revenue mechanics are disclosed in the available input data. The platform's website (ourscreen.com) is referenced, but the only associated source content is a generic, unrelated third-party article about white screens in business events (dot-services.org), which the source itself flags as not being OurScreen company material. There are no disclosed pricing models, no named customers or customer segments, no partnerships, no funding rounds, no acquisitions, no regulatory actions, no patent activity, no certifications, and no app or API offerings in the data set.

The business model is therefore not explicitly identifiable from the sources provided. The addressable market is cinema goers seeking niche or hard-to-find film screenings, a fragmented long-tail audience. With no monetization signals, no investor activity, and a 1-10 person headcount 11 years after founding, the available evidence is consistent with either a low-revenue lifestyle business, a dormant project, or a small operation lacking disclosed growth capital.

Direct peers

• Tugg: Tugg (now part of Eventive) pioneered the crowd-sourced, demand-driven movie screening model — users request a film, gather ticket pre-sales, and a local cinema hosts the screening. It is the closest historical analogue to OurScreen's core offering.
• Eventive: Eventive is a virtual cinema and in-theater event ticketing platform serving independent cinemas, film festivals, and distributors. Its demand-driven screening and festival/event ticketing capabilities directly overlap with OurScreen's curated-cinema-finding use case.
• Gofobo: Gofobo is a U.S.-based platform for free and discounted movie screenings, advance screenings, and group bookings. It directly competes in the curated-screening-discovery space OurScreen occupies, though primarily in the U.S. market.

Broad incumbents

• Cineworld: Cineworld is one of the world's largest cinema chains (including the former Regal in the U.S.), directly relevant as a potential OurScreen partner and as an incumbent with its own ticketing and showtime discovery systems.
• Atom Tickets: Atom Tickets is a U.S.-focused social movie ticketing app allowing groups to buy tickets together and pick showtimes. Its group-buy and cinema-discovery features overlap with OurScreen's audience-coordination angle, though at much greater scale.
• Fandango: Fandango is the largest U.S. movie ticketing platform and aggregator, showing where and when films are playing. While its scale and breadth far exceed OurScreen's, it occupies the same 'find a cinema showing this film' user job, making it a relevant broad incumbent comparator.
• Showcase Cinemas: Showcase Cinemas is a UK-based multiplex chain and likely OurScreen partner candidate. As a cinema operator with its own ticketing platform, it represents the venue-side counterpart of OurScreen's marketplace.

Emerging players

• Letterboxd: Letterboxd is a film-discovery and social-review platform where users track films they want to see. It overlaps with OurScreen's discovery use case (helping users decide what to watch) and shares an enthusiast, cinephile user base.
• MUBI: MUBI is a curated film streaming service with a strong theatrical and screening-programming arm. Its focus on curated, arthouse film experiences intersects with OurScreen's demand-driven, niche-tilted positioning.

Regional players

• Film Hub Scotland: Film Hub Scotland is a Scotland-based film exhibition network supporting independent and community cinemas. Relevant as a Scotland-region (near OurScreen's Campbeltown base) infrastructure peer that supports audience development for curated screenings.
