About Playbook:
Playbook leads at the intersection of the creator economy and digital fitness — our goal is to build the world’s most incredible user experience and marketplace where a user can access the content, knowledge, and community from today’s best content creators in fitness, wellness, and sports for one low subscription cost via the Playbook consumer app (4.9/5 stars with over 20,000 organic reviews)
We accomplish this by building the world's best tools for creators so they can publish content on their terms and have full ownership over their business. We built a “business in a box” via our Playbook Creator app that serves as an end-to-end business tool — content creation, analytics, community engagement, etc.
We believe creators are the most valuable piece of the supply chain in digital fitness and wellness, so we aim to maximize their ownership and income potential by empowering them with world-class technology, data, and services.
