Meet the founder

Built and led by Jacklyn Dallas.

Most coverage of technology runs on fear. Jacklyn built NBT to do the opposite — informed optimism, showing why the future is worth being excited about. She goes inside the labs, factories, and HQs where it's being built, sits down with the founders behind it, and brings the audience into rooms they'd never see.

Jacklyn started the channel at just 13 years old. Today she's a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree — sitting down with the most interesting CEOs in technology and explaining the things that matter most, in a way everyone can understand.

What we actually do

A field trip to the future.

NBT isn't filmed in a studio. Jacklyn is the audience's proxy — going where the next big thing is actually being built and putting it to the test herself, so millions of viewers see the future first and leave fired up to build their own next big thing.

Why it works

What makes it an NBT video.

Before a story becomes a video, it has to make it through our greenlight process. Every idea is tested against the same standard. This approach has helped us build a community of incredibly curious people!

01

You have to see it to believe it.

Every topic is inherently visual — there's a reason it's a video and not an essay. Seeing the key moment is what unlocks the whole story for the viewer.

02

A future worth being excited about.

The tech unlocks a genuinely optimistic, exciting future for millions of people.

03

The "oh, that's how it works" moment.

A deeply satisfying explanation that rewires how you see the world — and leaves you feeling smarter and energized.

04

Wait… that's real?

It has to sound a little insane — the kind of thing you hear and immediately think "what in the world, I need to know more."

The conversations

Conversations you won't see anywhere else.

Hundreds of hours of research per interview. Jacklyn watches every interview a guest has ever done, notices the exact moments their face lights up that no one followed up on, and then crafts her questions around those topics — so they get questions no one's ever asked, and you see a side of them you've never seen.

Interviewer was born for this. Knocked it out of the park. Outstanding questions and great energy

That was a brilliant set of questions. Thank you for NOT asking the same tired questions. I really believe you did watch all the previous interviews

Probably the best interview I've seen with Tim Cook in the tech YouTuber sphere. You're the perfect person to be doing these tech interviews, Jacklyn…

The partnership

Our partners become characters in the NBT cinematic universe.

Not placements. Not banner ads. Partners are built into the narrative — the way a character is written into a film.

We work meticulously to tell every partner's story — showing how their technology is changing the world in ways that feel as creative and energizing as the work itself. Every partner moment is researched, scripted, and shot to the same standard as the rest of the show.

How we work
  • Meticulous storytelling, creative craft
  • Researched, scripted & shot like the show
  • A small number of partners per year
  • Direct access to our team
  • The most optimistic corner of tech media
