Sugar Pine 7 is an American entertainment company founded by Steven Suptic, Clayton "Cib" James and James DeAngelis in 2017. The company's flagship product is the vlog inspired mockumentary web series, Alternative Lifestyle, featuring the cast as exaggerated versions of themselves. As of November 2017, the YouTube channel has over one million subscribers and over 60 million video views.

Steven Suptic met Clayton "Cib" James in 2012 and the two became friends. He later met James DeAngelis and editor Autumn Farrell while he was working at SourceFed. After SourceFed was cancelled in early 2017, Suptic began a web series on his personal YouTube channel called Alternative Lifestyle, and subsequently co-founded Sugar Pine 7 with James and DeAngelis, who had become regular cast members of the series. Regarding their style, Suptic has described Alternative Lifestyle as a "freeze-frame narrated, hyper-surrealistic, improv-based comedy that uses the vlog format as a vehicle to promote a character-driven story". The name "Sugar Pine 7" refers to the name of the cabin the main group once stayed in. After working independently for several months, Sugar Pine 7 became a part of Rooster Teeth's multi-channel network called the LetsPlay Network.

In 2017, Sugar Pine 7's Alternative Lifestyle won the Streamy Award for Show of the Year. They also attended RTX Austin in 2017, and will attend RTX Sydney in 2018. In late 2017 they released their first short film, entitled The Woods, a "cheesy horror story." Kyle Kizu of The Daily Californian named Sugar Pine 7 "the pinnacle of YouTube content creation."

On January 11, 2018, Sugar Pine 7 was purchased by Rooster Teeth.
