Bent Pixels is a creator-economy media company founded in 2009 by 📝Mike Pusateri, with offices in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. It helps video creators, esports teams, agencies, and networks run and monetize multi-platform businesses through channel management, content strategy, and rights and revenue operations, and it sells brands premium advertising placements and campaigns inside creator content.
Bent Pixels began in digital rights management before building a multichannel network around gaming and lifestyle creators; by 2014 it reported more than 2,100 content partners and over 5 billion annual video views. In fall 2018 it launched an esports division serving teams including 100 Thieves, FaZe Clan, TSM, and Cloud9 (PRWeb). It has since opened a Singapore arm, Bent Pixels Asia, and added brand products such as reserved media inventory in creator content (Net Influencer, July 2025). The company has described itself as profitable every year since inception, without debt or outside funding.
