Five ways to watch

Every story is built around choice points, and each one uses some of these. The same story can feel personal one night and like a premiere the next.

  • You choose

    The story pauses and the choice is yours. Each path has its own scenes and endings, and you can go back for the ones you missed.

  • Live vote

    At watch parties and premieres, everyone votes when the story pauses. The room’s choice plays for everyone at the same moment.

  • Vote on what’s next

    Watch today’s episode, then vote on what happens in the next one. The audience decides where the story goes.

  • Predict

    Call the outcome before the reveal and win coins if you’re right. Coins are free and have no cash value. You can’t buy them, sell them or cash them out.

  • Starring you

    Verified members 18 and over can cast themselves in a personalized edition of a story. Every edition is clearly labeled AI-generated.

Only you can put your face in a story, and you decide who else can cast you.

  • Verified, live, adult

    Members 18 and over verify with a live check in the app. Uploaded photos are refused.

  • Your call who casts you

    Choose “Only me” or “Friends I approve”, and revoke your likeness at any time.

  • Always labeled

    Every personalized edition says AI-generated in the picture, in the app and in the file’s Content Credentials.

Questions

What is Banjo?

Banjo is short, cinematic stories told in episodes that pause at choice points. You decide what happens next on your own, vote with everyone at a watch party or premiere, or predict the outcome for coins.

Where can I watch?

In your browser at bnjo.tv and in the Banjo app for iPhone and Android (coming soon to the stores). One account works everywhere. A few titles are licensed for the app only; their page says so.

Who can join?

Anyone 13 or older. While Banjo is invite-only, new accounts need an invite code: sign in and enter yours. Starring you is for verified members 18 and over.

What are coins?

Coins are free and have no cash value. You earn them by watching and playing, and use them to predict what happens next and for Starring you. They can’t be bought, sold or cashed out.

How is my face protected in Starring you?

Your likeness is set up with a live check in the app, never from an uploaded photo. You choose who may cast you and can revoke it at any time. Read the biometric data policy.

How do I report something?

Choose Report on a message, profile or personalized edition in the app. To report intimate imagery shared without consent, including AI-generated imagery, use the takedown form: no account needed.

Can I publish my own stories?

Yes. Studios and independent creators apply through Banjo Studio. See how publishing works.
