Ludovic Bostral

Streaming Analyst · Fractional CTO · YC S15

I analyze streaming markets, build data-driven playbooks, and help teams execute them.

Founder of Streaming Radar. 25 years hands-on, from M6 Replay to emerging markets.

What I do

I publish streaming intelligence reports on Lens: Vertical Invasion, Africa Streaming, Africa Landscape, Vertical Drama Market. All data accessible via the MCP server. This data feeds into concrete playbooks - launch strategy, positioning, pricing, distribution - that I help teams deploy on the ground.
