Idilio TV

Idilio TV is a Latin American microdrama streaming app that produces original vertical series with episodes roughly 90 seconds to 3 minutes long, blending the melodrama of telenovelas with the format of TikTok. Founded by Gabriela Tafur and Esteban Ramirez and legally operating as Latido TV SAS, the company uses an AI-assisted production pipeline to make short-form drama faster and cheaper than traditional studios. Available free on iOS and Android, it passed 1.3 million-plus downloads across 50-plus countries within months of launch and raised a $5.5M seed round led by a16z Speedrun with backing from Jeffrey Katzenberg's WndrCo, Goodwater Capital, Precursor Ventures and Nubank founder David Velez.
