About us

Fetch TV is all about elevating digital home entertainment and lifestyle experiences for our customers.

Fetch aggregates great content from the world’s biggest and best entertainment providers and delivers it to the TV screen on one simple yet intelligent voice and AI-enabled user interface.

In doing this, Fetch meets the needs of Australian families, bringing them back together in the home to watch and play together.

Since starting out in 2008, we have built Fetch into a world class entertainment product. Our technology platform and UX are built in-house to world-class standards by our talented team of Fetch developers and engineers. Backed by major shareholders including Telstra, Fetch is investing for growth and innovation as we scale to 1 million Australian households and beyond.

Our team, based in Sydney and KL, is passionate about customer experience, content, technology and innovation, and we are committed to providing Australians with a greater choice of localised entertainment experiences in the home.
