A Parent Media Co. Inc. (APMC) is a private Canadian media and technology company founded in 2012 and headquartered in Calgary, Alberta. The company is known for its flagship product, the Kidoodle.TV streaming service. While specific revenue figures are not public, the company had an estimated 101-200 employees as of early 2026.
APMC is an operating company focused on "Safe Streaming™" for children. Its primary service, Kidoodle.TV, is an ad-supported and subscription-based video-on-demand platform offering curated, age-appropriate entertainment and educational content for children. The service is available in over 160 countries and features parental controls, screen-time limits, and content vetted for safety. In addition to Kidoodle.TV, APMC's portfolio includes other streaming services like Dude Perfect Streaming Service, Glitch+, and Victory+™, and it utilizes its own proprietary streaming and monetization technologies.
As a patent litigant, A Parent Media Co. is an operating company that has only appeared as a defendant. The company has been named in two tracked patent infringement lawsuits, both filed by DISH Technologies, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. This posture is consistent with an operating company defending itself against patent assertions rather than initiating them.
Both of the company's tracked cases were filed on the same day in September 2023 by DISH Technologies, LLC and Sling TV, LLC. The lawsuits alleged infringement of eight U.S. patents related to online streaming infrastructure. Court records show that the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the suits in April 2024, ending the litigation without a ruling on the merits of the infringement claims.
