Blerp, an audio expression start-up out of Salt Lake City, recently closed on an undisclosed seed round with notable investors from the Alexa Fund, Kickstart VC, Konvoy Ventures, The Fund VC, and Voice Punch. Blerp was conceptualized after their founder created the viral Shia Lebouf “Just Do It” soundboard, which boasted over 50,000 app downloads in its first month. From there, Blerp has grown into a leading soundbite database with over 1M+ user-created sounds, which range from popular memes to sound effects and more.&nbsp; Blerp’s primary integrations have focused on livestreaming and gaming, allowing streamers to add Sound Emotes to their stream to amplify engagement and offer exclusive content to their subscribers. From pranks effects, soundboards of the creator’s voice, and user-generated sounds, Blerp is a bottomless resource for streamers and creators. How does it work?&nbsp;Viewers can search and preview sounds from Blerp’s expansive library and share them in-stream, in-chat, or in real life for hilarious results.

Everything You Need To Know about Blerp on Twitch

Thousands of Twitch Streamers are making money with Blerp – but how can Blerp help you turn your passion for streaming into a lucrative career?&nbsp; Blerp is an audio expression platform that allows you to enhance every moment and engage with your audience while you stream. When you stream with Blerp extension enabled, your viewers can click and share audio clips live on your stream. They’ll pay bits to play each Blerp, and those Twitch Bits go straight into your pocket. To get started, the first thing you need to do is add Blerp to your stream (<a href="https://youtu.be/OOXvCYNXJbU" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: black;">click here to learn how</a>). Next, set the bit price that best matches your stream: a good rule of thumb is to set your bit price close to your number of concurrent viewers. For example, if you have 10-15 concurrent viewers, we recommend setting your bit price around 15, and for streams with 100+ concurrent viewers, we recommend 150+ or more. The key is a balance, so your community is excited to share their hilarious and perfectly-timed Blerps. Once you’re all set up, you can start to really customize Blerp to really get your community engaged and sharing bits: 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Create your own soundboard. You can create Blerps from your best Twitch clips, YouTube content, and more, or you can upload your own video file to use. Once you’ve made your soundboard, you can feature it for everyone, or keep it exclusive for Subscribers and top fans. 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Add !Blerp to your stream title with a chat command explaining what Blerp is and how to use it. 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Install Blerp on your component as well as your panel. Streamers who have Blerp accessible with a stream overlay see 30-40% more shares on stream. 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Feature content you know your community will love. In addition to your own custom-made soundboards, you have the entire Blerp soundboard database at your disposal, so take the time to find fun and engaging content. 5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lastly, we recommend having your mods create a soundboard of their own to feature on stream. This will allow them to add and approve sounds from the community, which can be an incredible resource. Your next stream with Blerp is going to be a blast, with hilarious clips and excellent viewer engagement that will help your stream thrive. So, install Blerp, sit back and watch the donations roll in.&nbsp;To learn more, check out blerp.com/twitch or hit us up on the Blerp Discord channel.&nbsp;(Be aware, you will need to be at least an affiliate streamer before you can receive bits).&nbsp;

Introducing Developer Updates

The transition into 2020’s new teaching style was abrupt, unexpected, and definitely not easy. Students across the world were sent home and expected to “log in” for class every day, while teachers were thrown into the Wild West of online classes, materials, and subject matter. It hasn’t been easy for either side, but it seems that teachers got the short end of the stick, especially when dealing with more difficult students, passive parents, or more “dense” subjects.&nbsp;To be honest, I don’t think anyone actually enjoys having classes over Zoom, but all you educators out there have done an excellent job trying to make it fun. For those of you who’ve hit your stride, we salute you. But, for those still struggling to find a means of better engaging their students, there’s Blerp: an audio enhancement tool full of audio memes, funny movies and TV clips, high-quality sound effects, and more.&nbsp;Using a Blerp during an online lecture is more than just playing a sound – it’s getting your class to laugh, or bringing them back into the moment. You can use them to tease, to express disappointment, to praise, or simply to educate – the possibilities are limitless with Blerp. Teachers are already utilizing Blerp in this way, and many have created their own “starter” boards for all-around use during class.&nbsp;Creating a Blerp account is easy and gives you access to soundboard creation, where you can not only gather your favorite Blerps for use, but create your own using your favorite teaching tools, your own voice, or anything else you think would add to your classes. You can work Blerp into your regular teaching schedule, use it as an assignment resource, or just use it for fun – whatever you end up doing, Blerp is sure to put a smile on your student’s on-screen faces.&nbsp;Check out some of our favorite teaching boards:<a href="blerp.com/soundboard/5fbbf05278ae7f000ce63f26" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Acornsoundsquirrel’s Board</a><a href="https://blerp.com/soundboard/5f3b6f7a128a2e0005f5de43" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Onsite Sass’s Board</a><a href="blerp.com/soundboard/5f97840bef336d004d84af6b" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Anthony_ingargiola’s Board</a>

The Best Meme Soundboard on Discord 

Earlier this year, we started a new marketing campaign that involved making Blerps from clips of top creators who found success using our platform. The goal of the campaign was to help viewers and broadcasters see the power of creating new content for their channel.&nbsp;As part of this campaign, much of the created content was unsolicited and some was rightfully received poorly by our users. We created content for broadcasters as a form of outreach without consent, which was clearly a mistake. When we were made aware of how this was impacting creators, we took down this content as quickly as possible. In the future, we will help users make unique content only when they actively reach out to us for assistance. The users themselves will review the Blerps with us and have the final say before they can be made public. We are working harder to make sure Blerp is a safe place for your content. Our first step towards this path is a new unlisted mode that allows you to create a soundboard that only you and your community can view on Blerp. The next step will be adding even more options for you to control which communities can share your content. We absorbed feedback related to both our outreach campaign as well as our initial response to the criticism. We are shifting resources from outreach to focus on building the success and partnerships of our current streamers. This has been a time for major learning and reflection for us as a team. We are grateful for those who rightfully pointed out how we can do better and who hold us accountable.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We apologize to all who have been negatively impacted by our actions and have sent direct apologies to individuals. Because many of our users are in the streaming community, this shortcoming was a tough pill to swallow; we want to be advocates for you and we did not succeed in doing so.&nbsp; We will continue to address these topics internally and want our community to know that we welcome your feedback. That communication is vital in helping us continue to learn and be better now and in the future.&nbsp;
