Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022 (the “Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the information set forth herein. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any future periods. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue, and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: • revenue recognition: determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, variable consideration, determining the stand-alone selling prices of performance obligations, gross versus net revenue recognition, and evaluation of customer versus vendor relationships; • the impairment of intangible assets; • valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations; • valuation of strategic investments; • useful lives of tangible and intangible assets; • allowances for sales returns and sales incentives; and • the valuation of deferred income tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates and assumptions. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Roku, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Two financial institutions managed 20% and 24% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance as of September 30, 2022 and 30% and 27% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance as of December 31, 2021, respectively. Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. They are stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for sales returns, sales incentives, doubtful accounts, and other miscellaneous allowances. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to determine allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. The Company considers historical experience, ongoing promotional activities, historical claim rates, and other factors to determine the allowances for sales returns and sales incentives. Allowance for Sales Returns : Allowance for sales returns consists of the following activities (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Beginning balance $ 4,670 $ 4,515 $ 6,015 $ 5,912 Add: Charged to revenue 4,187 3,082 12,997 10,133 Less: Utilization of sales return reserve (3,294) (3,554) (13,449) (12,002) Ending balance $ 5,563 $ 4,043 $ 5,563 $ 4,043 Allowance for Sales Incentives : Allowance for sales incentives consists of the following activities (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Beginning balance $ 24,893 $ 16,640 $ 48,411 $ 30,838 Add: Charged to revenue 15,661 17,379 47,211 44,953 Less: Utilization of sales incentive reserve (22,848) (14,184) (77,916) (55,956) Ending balance $ 17,706 $ 19,835 $ 17,706 $ 19,835 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts : Allowance for doubtful accounts consists of the following activities (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Beginning balance $ 2,278 $ 3,082 $ 2,158 $ 4,181 Provision for (recoveries of) doubtful accounts 2 (381) 469 (1,480) Adjustments for write-off (97) (1,119) (444) (1,119) Ending balance $ 2,183 $ 1,582 $ 2,183 $ 1,582 The Company did not have any customer that accounted for more than 10% of its accounts receivable, net balance as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards On January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted the guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in October 2021. The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , to require companies to apply Accounting Standards Codification, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The adoption did not have any impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue	REVENUE The Company’s disaggregated revenue is represented by the two reportable segments discussed in Note 16. The contract balances include the following (in thousands): As of September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Accounts receivable, net $ 719,187 $ 752,393 Contract assets (included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets) 39,743 46,952 Deferred revenue, current portion $ 60,101 $ 45,760 Deferred revenue, non-current portion 26,269 28,726 Total deferred revenue $ 86,370 $ 74,486 Accounts receivable are recorded at the amount invoiced, net of allowances for sales returns, sales incentives, and doubtful accounts. Payment terms can vary by customer and contract. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets are created when invoicing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition. Contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to invoice becomes unconditional. The Company’s contract assets are current in nature and are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets. Contract assets decreased by $7.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the timing of billing to customers as well as an overall decrease in the transaction prices in content arrangements. Deferred revenue reflects consideration invoiced prior to the completion of performance obligations and revenue recognition. Deferred revenue increased $11.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to the timing of fulfillment of performance obligations related to platform revenue contracts, offset by lower deferral of player revenue. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, from amounts included in total deferred revenue as of December 31, 2021, was $7.9 million and $41.6 million, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, from amounts included in total deferred revenue as of December 31, 2020, was $9.3 million and $49.0 million, respectively. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents estimated contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Estimated contracted revenue for these remaining performance obligations was $1,113.2 million as of September 30, 2022 of which the Company expects to recognize approximately 50% over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter. The Company reversed revenue of $8.7 million and $0.5 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and recognized revenue of $4.5 million and $29.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, from performance obligations that were satisfied in previous periods due to changes in the estimated transaction price of its revenue contracts. The Company did not have any customer that accounted for more than 10% of its total net revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Business Combinations	BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Nielsen’s Advanced Video Advertising Business On February 28, 2021, the Company entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement to purchase the Advanced Video Advertising (“AVA”) business from Nielsen Holdings PLC (“Nielsen”). The AVA business consists primarily of video automatic content recognition and dynamic ad insertion technologies. On April 15, 2021, the Company closed the transaction, acquiring from Nielsen the AVA business, consisting of certain assets and liabilities and all of the equity interests in a subsidiary associated with the AVA business (the “Acquisition”). In conjunction with the Acquisition, the Company and Nielsen entered into a strategic commercial arrangement under which the parties will provide certain advertising measurement solutions to each other. The Company acquired Nielsen’s AVA business to accelerate its launch of an end-to-end linear ad replacement solution and to further integrate Nielsen’s ad and content measurement products into the Company’s ad platform. The total purchase consideration for Nielsen’s AVA business was $53.4 million, which consisted of (i) $38.5 million paid in cash and (ii) $21.4 million of non-cash consideration related to obligations to deliver services to Nielsen, offset by (iii) $6.5 million of services to be received from Nielsen. The obligations to deliver services to Nielsen were recorded at fair value using the incremental cash flow method. The services to be delivered to Nielsen are recognized within Other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the six year service period. The services to be received from Nielsen represent contract terms that the Company entered into for future goods and services that were recorded at fair value using the incremental cash flow method.

Fair Value Disclosure	FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value are as follows (in thousands): As of September 30, 2022 As of December 31, 2021 Fair Value Level 1 Level 3 Fair Value Level 1 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents: Cash $ 1,415,038 $ 1,415,038 $ — $ 1,130,172 $ 1,130,172 $ — Money market funds 603,578 603,578 — 1,015,871 1,015,871 — Other non-current assets: Restricted cash, non-current 1,735 1,735 — 1,627 1,627 — Strategic investment 43,556 — 43,556 — — — Total assets measured and recorded at fair value $ 2,063,907 $ 2,020,351 $ 43,556 $ 2,147,670 $ 2,147,670 $ — Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market, in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and utilizes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company measured money market funds of $603.6 million and $1,015.9 million as cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, using Level 1 inputs. Level 2 —Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. The Company did not have Level 2 instruments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Level 3 —Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. As of September 30, 2022, the Company measured the Investment using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the Investment on the date of purchase was determined to be equal to its principal amount. The Company recorded an unrealized gain of $3.6 million in Other income (expense), net related to the adjustment to fair value of the Investment for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The Company did not have Level 3 instruments as of December 31, 2021. The Company classifies the Investment as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs. The fair value of the Investment was estimated using a scenario-based probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Significant assumptions include timing of subsequent redemption events, once converted into equity, the timing of any liquidity event, and probability weighting of the various redemption scenarios that can impact the settlement of the Investment. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis Non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and content assets are evaluated for impairment and adjusted to fair value using Level 3 inputs, only when impairment is recognized.

Since those amounts cannot be determined, they are not included in the obligations above. Letters of Credit As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had irrevocable letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $38.0 million related to operating leases. The letters of credit have various expiration dates through 2029. Contingencies The Company accrues for loss contingencies, including liabilities for intellectual property licensing claims, when it believes such losses are probable and reasonably estimable. These contingencies are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events. The resolution of these contingencies and of other legal proceedings can be, however, inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, and investigations in the ordinary course of business, including claims relating to employee relations, business practices and patent infringement. The Company is involved in litigation matters not listed herein. Although the results of these proceedings, claims, and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any matters that it is currently involved in are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any loss contingencies that were material. Indemnification In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into contractual arrangements which provide indemnification provisions of varying scope and terms to business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company’s breach of such agreements and out of intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. The Company’s obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time or amount, and in some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain of its officers that will require it, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES Income tax expense was $2.0 million and $6.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and was primarily attributable to changes in the Company’s year over year taxable earnings mix in the U.S. and state operations, and earnings in non-U.S. operations. Income tax benefit was $0.3 million and $4.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and was primarily attributable to non-U.S. tax benefit associated with the Company's non-U.S. operations. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized through future operations. As a result of the Company’s analysis of all available objective evidence, both positive and negative, as of September 30, 2022, management believes it is more likely than not that some deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its U.S. and certain foreign deferred tax assets. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was enacted in the U.S. The IRA introduces a 15% alternative minimum tax based on the financial statement income of certain large corporations, effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The IRA also includes a 1% excise tax on the net fair market value of stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. The Company considered the applicable tax law changes, and there is no impact to the Company’s tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of these tax law changes on future periods.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share	Sep. 30, 2022
Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income (Loss) Per Share	NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE The Company’s basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company uses the two-class method to calculate net income (loss) per share. Except with respect to certain voting, conversion, and transfer rights and as otherwise expressly provided in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or required by applicable law, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock have the same rights and privileges and rank equally, share ratably, and are identical in all respects as to all matters. Accordingly, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share are the same for both classes. For purposes of the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, options to purchase common stock and restricted stock units are considered common stock equivalents. Dilutive shares of common stock are determined by applying the treasury stock method. The dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share in the period of net loss, as their effect is antidilutive. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share data): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Numerator: Net income (loss) $ (122,183) $ 68,935 $ (260,810) $ 218,698 Denominator: Basic net income (loss) per share: Weighted-average common shares outstanding — basic 138,571 133,685 136,997 132,036 Net income (loss) per share — basic $ (0.88) $ 0.52 $ (1.90) $ 1.66 Diluted net income (loss) per share: Weighted-average common shares outstanding — basic 138,571 133,685 136,997 132,036 Effect of potentially dilutive securities: Restricted stock units — 2,641 — 3,007 Stock options — 5,960 — 6,550 Weighted-average common shares outstanding — diluted 138,571 142,286 136,997 141,593 Net income (loss) per share — diluted $ (0.88) $ 0.48 $ (1.90) $ 1.54 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, equity awards to purchase 13.8 million shares of common stock are excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because of their anti-dilutive effect during the period of net loss. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, equity awards to purchase 0.1 million shares of common stock are excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because of their anti-dilutive effect.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022 (the “Annual Report”).
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue, and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include: • revenue recognition: determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, variable consideration, determining the stand-alone selling prices of performance obligations, gross versus net revenue recognition, and evaluation of customer versus vendor relationships; • the impairment of intangible assets; • valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations; • valuation of strategic investments; • useful lives of tangible and intangible assets; • allowances for sales returns and sales incentives; and • the valuation of deferred income tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates and assumptions.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Roku, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Two financial institutions managed 20% and 24% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance as of September 30, 2022 and 30% and 27% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance as of December 31, 2021, respectively.
Accounts Receivable, net	Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. They are stated at invoice value less estimated allowances for sales returns, sales incentives, doubtful accounts, and other miscellaneous allowances. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to determine allowances for potential credit losses and doubtful accounts. The Company considers historical experience, ongoing promotional activities, historical claim rates, and other factors to determine the allowances for sales returns and sales incentives.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards On January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted the guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in October 2021. The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , to require companies to apply Accounting Standards Codification, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The adoption did not have any impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value	Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market, in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and utilizes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company measured money market funds of $603.6 million and $1,015.9 million as cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, using Level 1 inputs. Level 2 —Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. The Company did not have Level 2 instruments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Level 3 —Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. As of September 30, 2022, the Company measured the Investment using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the Investment on the date of purchase was determined to be equal to its principal amount. The Company recorded an unrealized gain of $3.6 million in Other income (expense), net related to the adjustment to fair value of the Investment for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The Company did not have Level 3 instruments as of December 31, 2021. The Company classifies the Investment as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs. The fair value of the Investment was estimated using a scenario-based probability weighted discounted cash flow model. Significant assumptions include timing of subsequent redemption events, once converted into equity, the timing of any liquidity event, and probability weighting of the various redemption scenarios that can impact the settlement of the Investment. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis Non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and content assets are evaluated for impairment and adjusted to fair value using Level 3 inputs, only when impairment is recognized.
