About Marathon
What is Marathon?
Marathon is a social TV platform that makes watching shows a shared experience. It solves the problem of watching alone by syncing playback across devices so you and your friends can enjoy episodes together in real time, with built-in chat, reactions, and spoiler controls.
Who is it for?
Marathon is perfect for friend groups, long-distance couples, or anyone who wants to binge-watch together while staying connected. It is not for single viewers who prefer solo streaming without social features.
Real use cases
Start a rewatch of your favorite series with synchronized episodes, use custom lists to track what everyone wants to watch next, filter by genre to find common ground, and use release reminders so no one misses a new episode. Skip episodes together, add spoiler tags, and discuss in threaded comments.
