About Overwolf

Overwolf is a platform for in-game content. Developers use it to build desktop apps and overlays for popular games using basic HTML and JavaScript, while gamers browse an app store of apps, mods and addons that extend the games they already play. The company positions itself as a home for creators who make content around existing games.

The platform covers several audiences. Creators can publish and manage mods, monetize their apps, and set up in-game or online stores for game servers. Game studios can add mod support and revenue streams, and advertisers can place in-game marketing in front of players. Overwolf also runs an accelerator program that offers funding to developers. It is a commercial platform run by the vendor, with an app store for gamers and documentation for creators.
