Founder's Office - Strategy & Operations

About Rooter

Rooter has emerged as a category-defining platform at the intersection of mobile gaming and creator-led commerce in India. With a compelling dual-platform model—streaming (à la Twitch) and in-game purchase marketplace (à la Steam)—Rooter serves over 14Mn MAUS and boasts 85 Mn+ registered users. It achieved a 7x YoY ARR growth to $24M while slashing its burn rate by 58%, indicating strong operational leverage. Notably, Rooter's monetisation flywheel—wherein 77% of revenue is now user-generated—demonstrates a shift towards scalable, low-CAC income. Its unique monetisation stack (IAPs, gift cards, and brand revenue) positions it as a high-velocity player in India’s digital gaming economy.

Rooter’s competitive moat lies in its “Watch + Buy + Play” funnel, underpinned by robust user retention (56.4% revenue retention as of Mar'25) and a 19x ROAS. Unlike game publishers or standalone marketplaces, Rooter builds a community-first ecosystem that integrates live-streaming, discovery, and commerce—thereby unlocking high-margin, repeatable transactions. If realised, Rooter’s vision to become India’s largest game discovery engine with a projected ARR of $504M by FY28 would create an irreplicable digital gaming infrastructure and a monetisation layer akin to the "Steam for Mobile Gaming."
