Channel Origination
Fast-track time to revenue.
The days of a single over-the-air channel are long behind us. Media companies are under constant pressure to spin up new channels for multiple platforms — and fast-track time to revenue.
Efficiently reaching a fragmented, anywhere/anytime audience requires rethinking the way you do playout. We’ve got some thoughts on the subject: unified channel origination.
With our software-based solutions, you can operate a single playout environment to generate content for broadcast, OTT, linear, nonlinear, mobile, or any other platform — and tailor a personalized experience to the audience you’re trying to aggregate and engage.
