Rivals charge $20 a screen and make you buy hardware. Yodeck charges $8 and mails the player free.
Will it work? · our read
Cheapest wins here. Yodeck undercut a $20 market at $8 and threw in the hardware. Two Inc. 5000 years and 350,000 screens say it worked. It has never shown a revenue figure.

Yodeck has never published a revenue figure, so the headline is its own screen count from yodeck.com/about (page opened 19 Jul 2026), not revenue. Inc. 5000 ranks No. 1412 (2025) and No. 1621 (2024) come from Yodeck's own newsroom pages, which we opened; Inc. ranks on revenue growth that companies self-report, and Inc.'s own profile pages returned HTTP 403 to us, so the underlying revenue was not readable and is not asserted here. The 317% three-year growth and No. 252 rank are read from Deloitte's official 2025 Technology Fast 500 rankings PDF, which lists Yodeck under a San Francisco, CA entity, the US arm of a company founded and headquartered in Athens. IMPORTANT: we could NOT confirm Yodeck is bootstrapped. No funding round appears anywhere in its 130-post newsroom and no page we opened states its funding structure, so this card does not label it bootstrapped in either direction. Customer, screen and staff counts are company self-reported and unaudited. All prices were read live from the vendors' own pricing pages on 19 Jul 2026. Founding year 2015 is from Yodeck's own milestone timeline; note a 2024 CEO quote instead says 'Since 2016'. Founder links include only the product site, as no personal profile for Mihalopoulos was confirmed on a page we opened. We never score you.
