  • Company Description
    OpenCandy was started by founding and early members of DivX, at which we were responsible for distributing hundreds of millions of DivX software downloads, and now we want to use what we’ve learned to help the software community. Software distribution is of immense value but largely untapped, so we started OpenCandy to democratize this value. Now we’re backed by top-tier investors and partnered with some really great software creators.
