WatchMojo.com is the leading producer and supplier of premium, professionally-produced factual infotainment video content to media companies, marketers and academic organizations. The company has streamed 1.9 billion videos since 2006 and was founded and funded by Ashkan Karbasfrooshan in 2006, a finalist for Ernst & Young's Media Entrepreneur of the Year in 2012. Profitable since November 2010, WatchMojo was privately-funded and today has no outside institutional investors.

As of December 1 2013, WatchMojo had over 1,250,000 subscribers, up from 100,000 as of January 1 2013. In 2011: - Digiday chose WatchMojo as a finalist for Best Entertainment Website alongside HBO and CBS. - Marketing Magazine selected WatchMojo as a Digital Media Company to Watch Out For. In September 2012, FlipBoard selected WatchMojo in its 'Three Things We Love' feature, stating: 'Few YouTube channels are as prolific as WatchMojo, which uploads as many as 10 videos per week about 'the people, places and trends viewers are passionate about.' Turns out that’s a pretty eclectic mix—it’s not unusual to flip from a biography of pop star Pink to a history of the CERN Large Hadron Collider.” Through the 'This Day In Video' initiative, WatchMojo covers pop culture and infotainment across a variety of categories, covering the People, Places and Trends that have shaped history, sports, entertainment, business, the arts and much more.
