The media & entertainment problems software finally fixes

Every industry has its own gravity well of pain. Here is where media & entertainment teams typically lose the most time, money and trust — and where we focus first.

  • Content sprawl

    Originals, syndicated and UGC live in different CMSes with different metadata.

  • Stream quality at scale

    A bad LCP and stutter-frame loses subscribers in week one.

  • Monetisation mix

    Subs, ads, hybrid and PPV — each with its own checkout and entitlement rules.

  • Recommendation gap

    Generic carousels lose to platforms with personal content engines.

Capabilities purpose-built for your domain

Six things teams typically ask us to build first — each shipped to production, not demo, quality.

  • OTT apps (Web, mobile, TV)

    React, React Native, tvOS, Android TV and Roku apps with shared design system.

  • Streaming back-end

    Ingest, transcode, packaging, DRM, ad-stitch, CDN and analytics.

  • Content management (CMS)

    Metadata, scheduling, rights windows, talent and editorial workflows.

  • Subscriptions & billing

    Subs, vouchers, gifting, family plans, in-app billing and revenue assurance.

  • Personalisation & recos

    Hybrid recommender systems with cold-start, exploration and editorial overrides.

  • Creator & studio tools

    Upload, edit, captioning, analytics and payouts for creator-driven platforms.

Media & entertainment software — questions teams ask us

Can you build OTT apps for Web, iOS, Android, tvOS, Android TV and Roku?

Yes — with a shared design system and platform-native players (AVPlayer, ExoPlayer, Roku BrightScript) for buttery playback.

Do you support DRM and content security?

Widevine, FairPlay and PlayReady, plus token-based authentication, device-binding and watermarking for premium content.

How do you reduce CDN cost without hurting QoE?

Multi-CDN with steering, ABR ladder optimisation, cache-warming for popular content and per-region encoding choices typically cut CDN cost 15-30%.
