CuriosityStream Inc. (NASDAQ:CURI) announced that its flagship factual‑entertainment platform is now available on Amazon Prime Video Channels in Germany, a move that extends the company’s reach into one of its largest non‑English‑speaking markets.
The launch deepens CuriosityStream’s partnership with Amazon, following earlier expansions into Finland, the Netherlands, and Sweden in April 2025. Germany has long been a priority for the company, having previously partnered with SPIEGEL TV and Autentic to bring German‑dubbed programming to its SVOD service. The new channel gives German viewers a seamless way to subscribe and access CuriosityStream’s award‑winning library, positioning the company to capture a larger share of the growing European streaming audience.
CuriosityStream’s financial performance underscores the strategic value of the expansion. In Q3 2025 the company reported revenue of $18.4 million, a 46% year‑over‑year increase, and a record gross profit of $10.8 million with a positive adjusted EBITDA of $3 million. Earlier, in Q4 2023 revenue was $14.8 million, up modestly from $14.5 million in Q4 2022. The company has also been growing its AI licensing business, which is expected to become a significant revenue stream as it supplies training data to large‑language‑model developers.
By making its content available through Amazon Prime Video Channels, CuriosityStream is expected to boost subscriber growth and revenue in Germany, while strengthening its competitive stance against other niche streaming services. The partnership leverages Amazon’s established customer base and distribution infrastructure, reducing acquisition costs and accelerating market penetration. The move also aligns with CuriosityStream’s broader strategy of expanding distribution through high‑profile platforms to drive scale and profitability.
CEO Clint Stinchcomb has repeatedly highlighted the importance of strategic distribution partnerships for global expansion. While no new quote accompanies this announcement, his past statements emphasize that such collaborations are key to maximizing shareholder value and accelerating growth. The company’s focus on returning capital to shareholders and investing in AI licensing further signals confidence in its long‑term business model.
The launch follows a pattern of Amazon‑based expansions across Europe, reinforcing CuriosityStream’s commitment to leveraging Amazon’s platform to reach new audiences. Combined with the company’s growing AI licensing activity, the German launch is a strategic step that is likely to enhance both subscriber numbers and revenue streams in the near term.
