About 1001

1001 is Iraq's leading legal streaming platform, launched in Baghdad in March 2023 by a team of Iraqi media entrepreneurs. It became the second most-used streaming app in the country within two weeks of launch and has since grown to more than 2.5 million unique users, built on a localization-first strategy: alongside international content from partners like OSN+, Starzplay and Rotana, it carries thousands of hours of Arabic series produced specifically for Iraqi audiences in the Iraqi dialect, including an exclusive partnership with leading broadcaster Al Sharqiya.
