Solve creates interactive, gamified crime-mystery content distributed on social platforms such as Instagram and Snap, and is expanding into podcasts. Its episodes blend narrative storytelling with clues delivered via leaked audio, voicemails, courtroom testimony and other evidence to engage audiences. The company produces roughly 18 original episodes per month and has accumulated about 30 million interactions over a year-and-a-half of distribution. Solve is launching a 10-episode true crime podcast produced in partnership with SALT audio and iHeartMedia, distributed on iHeart and Apple. For now the business operates as an ad-supported studio distributing content to platforms including Apple, Snap, Facebook and iHeartMedia. Tom Wright leads the company, which began as a series developed within Vertical Networks.
