What is this Media Platform?

Our solution is a white-label digital news and media platform for publishers, broadcasters and media startups. It brings written journalism, live television, on-demand video and audio together in one branded experience, managed from a single newsroom CMS.

The platform was originally developed as a pan-African digital media service designed to serve audiences across many countries and languages. That makes it well suited to any publisher that needs to reach diverse, multilingual audiences on every device.

What Our Clients Say

Platform FAQs

What is a white-label OTT platform?

A white-label OTT platform is ready-built streaming software that you rebrand and launch as your own service.

How is this different from a Netflix clone script?

Clone scripts usually copy the look of a single app and stop there. This is a complete streaming platform with a CMS, DRM, multiple monetization models, analytics and Smart TV apps.

How much does it cost to launch an OTT platform?

The cost depends on the platforms, features and level of customisation you need. Custom-built streaming platforms often cost $100,000 or more, and ours starts at a fraction of that.

How long does it take to launch?

Timelines depend on how many apps you need, the amount of customisation and how quickly your content and branding are ready.

Which devices and Smart TVs are supported?

The platform supports iOS and Android phones and tablets, web browsers and connected TV platforms including Samsung, LG, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Apple TV and Roku.

Do I own the source code?

Yes. You receive the source code for your deployment, and your brand, content, subscriber data and revenue remain yours.
