MyEye is a British iOS/Android live-video streaming app positioned as a rival to Periscope and Meerkat, with streams that expire after 72 hours. The app has been in stealth mode for over a year and is built by founders Mark Betteridge, Lee Musgrave and Paul Kavanagh. MyEye is platform-independent but allows sharing to Twitter and Facebook and registration via Facebook; it emphasizes privacy controls (including geographic obfuscation) and curated broadcast notifications. The product targets sportspeople, pop stars and entertainment personalities and includes features like a Globe search and a proprietary compression/streaming solution that the company says uses significantly less data. Financially, the company has taken approximately £2 million of investment to date; terms and investor breakdown beyond David Beckham’s involvement were not disclosed.
