HT Labs launched OTTPlay in May 2021, with a single objective of recommending relevant content (series, movies, documentaries, etc.) from all the OTTs out there, thereby saving users’ time. It is a content recommendation engine and an OTT aggregator of sorts. In addition, it also sources entertainment news from reliable sources like Hindustan Times, Desimartini, Film Companion and Live Mint for its users.
Simply put, OTTPlay doesn’t have any content of its own but it gathers the titles from other platforms which the user can then watch. It has partnered with almost all the major OTT Players out there and also made available multiple subscription plans through which a user can watch content of multiple OTTs. Simply put, one subscription on OTT Play is equal to subscriptions to multiple OTT Players. Let us have a look at all of OTTPlay’s Premium Plans:
