The short video creating platform invites all gamers and gaming companies to claim their free “personal AI Highlights Producer”.
What if any gamer who streams could create immediate highlights from their livestreams and feed their social channels with the best and most captivating moments of their playthroughs? While this sort of capacity is typically available only to the resources of established streamers, companies and esports teams with the help of experienced media teams, Replai is offering a solution to passionate content creators who balance their streaming with jobs, families and day-to-day life looking to grow their follower base through their AI-based automated highlight creator platform.
Replai is a real-time content production platform that offers massive time and cost savings by rapidly creating high-quality video highlights from thousands of hours of live streams, streamlining all the needed editing, clipping, rendering and sharing of video in just 3% of the time. Following a successful funding round in June, Replai has been quickly expanding its user base: “In September, Replai users produced over 15 000 highlights from around one million hours of streams processed. We estimate that these served an audience of around 11 000 000 people in social channels”, explains Diogo Pereira, director of marketing and community for Replai. “Only recently we opened the access to Replai beyond our previous enterprise-exclusive level as we’ve seen the massive demand for a solution like this from end users.”, he adds. Irina Pencheva, Head of Social at SK Gaming, testifies to such efficiency: “The projects I created with Replai are definitely something that helps the team’s operation to release content as games are happening”.
Replai was born from the context of increasing importance of community content as a powerful marketing strategy for brands in gaming, together with the rise of short-video platforms like Tik Tok. After partnering with major companies across the globe like PUBG, SK Gaming or GamersClub to help them automate content creation, the team witnessed a rapid demand from everyday streamers. “Replai can be an absolute game changer for millions of streamers who don’t have the time, resources or money to scale content as they struggle to balance streaming with their life”, João Costa, Replai CEO, explains. “We help them save their time editing highlights dramatically. Replai enables them to do in one minute what took at least one hour.”
Such usage comes from all types of streamers, from those with thousands of followers to aspirational ones who want to grow their channels by stimulating the virality of their content. “It’s been fantastic to witness the enthusiasm of the community.”, Diogo says. “We think of our Discord as a place to celebrate live streaming, where our users and ambassadors come together to exchange ideas, tips, and play together”. Nikolarn is one of such streamers that at around half a million followers who found Replai to unlock potential for all types of content creators: “Short-video content is essential for me to keep my viewer base engaged and growing across all of my social outlets. It’s next to impossible being efficient in producing that type of content daily, especially after long streaming sessions. Replai solves a major bottleneck for professional streamers, and as such the impact is even bigger for streamers who don’t have dedicated staff at their disposal or simply lack the editing skills or time to produce that type of content.”
What’s next for Replai? “We keep expanding our strategic partners in the industry, but we have a strong belief in the importance and improvement of our streamer community.” Diogo adds . “We’ve seen an unbelievable adoption of Replai from every type of streamers: from firefighters who stream in-between emergency calls, to VR-enthusiasts who are conquering new audiences. That excitement fuels our ambition to make Replai a platform that every streamer in the planet will want to use. We want to put Replai in the hands of every streamer who wants to create more exciting content but doesn’t have the time or resources to do it.
“We invite everyone to try Replai for themselves – all it takes is a sign-up and inserting a stream URL – and become a part of our community.” The team is also committed to improving the product continuously, encouraging user feedback for new feature developments in their Discord.
Replai is currently free to use on a 14-days trial, after which users can simply refer friends to join Replai in order to keep the account fully unlocked. The Replai Partner & Ambassador Program allows top Replai users to receive perks and have access to beta features.

  • Chiliz Group acquires 51% of OG Esports, investing to grow the team, expand operations, and strengthen fan and player engagement.

  • Xavier Oswald, a former co-founder and shareholder of OG, becomes CEO, while OG co-founders Johan “n0tail” Sundstein and Sébastien “Ceb” Debs launch a new strategic project consolidating the team’s competitive foundation.

  • Socios.com becomes the exclusive platform for $OG Fan Tokens, $OG will act as the showcase for blockchain-based utility.

The Chiliz Group, the world’s leading blockchain provider for the sports and entertainment industry and operator of Socios.com, today announced it has acquired a 51% controlling stake in OG Esports, one of the most iconic and innovative names in global esports.

Founded in 2015 by legendary Dota 2 players Johan “n0tail” Sundstein and Sébastien “Ceb” Debs, OG is the first team in history to win back-to-back titles at The International. Since then, OG has expanded into Counter-Strike, Honor of Kings and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, building one of the most successful and culturally significant organisations in esports.

OG has a track record of delivering a fan-driven culture through innovation and launched the $OG Fan Token in 2020. The $OG Fan Token recently became the first esports Fan Token to surpass a $100 million market capitalization, driven by surging global demand for digital fan assets. Having delivered exclusive voting rights, VIP experiences, merchandise, and direct access to the team for fans worldwide, $OG represents a thriving $100m+ digital fan economy.

As part of the acquisition, Xavier Oswald will take on the role of CEO of OG, guiding the organisation into its next chapter, while co-founders Johan “n0tail” Sundstein and Sébastien “Ceb” Debs will lead a new strategic project consolidating the team’s competitive foundation, driving innovation at the intersection of esports and Web3.

The token will now showcase how fan assets can evolve – serving as the blockchain layer for tickets, merchandise, in-stadium perks, and digital content, while also integrating real-world assets and club revenues through mechanisms like buybacks to deliver deeper influence and tangible value to supporters.

Through The Chiliz Group’s global network of more than 80 leading sports properties, OG will now be able to expand into new countries and markets, building a larger international footprint and new commercial opportunities. Backed by the financial strength of a global group, OG will become more resilient and sustainable, ensuring long-term stability while focusing on what matters most: players, fans, and innovation.

More details about the acquisition will be released in the coming weeks.

“OG has always been about community and innovation, and since 2020 it has demonstrated that Fan Tokens can create genuine economic value and meaningful engagement,” said Alex Dreyfus, CEO and Founder of Chiliz. “With a $100 million fan token economy already established, OG represents the perfect case study for what’s truly possible when we place Fan Tokens at the centre of the fan economy. This acquisition allows us to showcase the next evolution – Fan Tokens 2.0.”

“This marks the start of a bold new era for OG,” said Xavier Oswald, incoming CEO of OG. “With Chiliz as our majority partner, we can scale our teams, grow our global community, and unlock a new dimension of engagement through the $OG Fan Token. We’ve always believed that fans should be at the centre of everything we do, and now we have the tools and the backing to make that vision a reality.”

“With Chiliz, we share a common vision based on strong values: passion, transparency, and the power of communities.” said Johan “N0tail” Sundstein, co-founder and historic figure of OG Esports. “From winning back-to-back Internationals to competing against OpenAI Five in a world-first showcase of human-AI collaboration, OG has always been about pushing boundaries. This alliance will allow us to stay true to our identity while continuing to grow.”

“This agreement marks the beginning of a new competitive cycle,’ added Sébastien “Ceb” Debs, two-time world champion with OG. “We want to once again become a major force on the international stage and inspire a new generation of players and fans. With the support of Chiliz, we now have the means to build an ambitious and sustainable project.”
