Tubi primarily targets a diverse audience, including budget-conscious consumers and those who prefer streaming over traditional cable TV. Currently, Tubi operates in the United States and is working on meeting GDPR requirements to expand into European markets. The company's goal is to offer accessible entertainment while generating revenue through advertising partnerships.
