Tubi, The Roku Channel and Pluto TV are the top 3 FAST services in the United States, according to a new ranking from Parks Associates.

The research firm said 46% of US internet households now regularly use FAST services to watch long-form video content.

Parks Associates’ first Top Ten US FAST Services list places Tubi in first position, followed by The Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Samsung TV Plus and Xumo Play.

Michael Goodman, director, entertainment research at Parks Associates, said FAST services were “no longer a secondary viewing option” but had become central to the streaming landscape.

He said the gap between leading services such as Tubi and the rest of the market underlined the importance of content breadth, distribution partnerships and user experience.

Parks Associates said the growth of FAST reflects subscription fatigue and rising streaming costs, with advertisers increasingly following audiences into free ad-supported streaming environments.
