What we build

Video streaming app development, end to end

One senior team covering the full streaming stack — from playback and monetization to the native app on every screen.

FAST channel development

24/7 linear channels with EPG, playout integration and server-side ad insertion — the free ad-supported model growing fastest in CTV.

Live TV, catch-up & restart

Gracenote-powered guides, live-to-VOD catch-up and restart — as we built for Univision, TV Azteca Play and Telekom Malaysia.

Subscriptions & monetization

SVOD, TVOD and pay-per-view with Cleeng, Roku Pay, credit cards and e-wallets; AVOD with DAI; TV-provider login via Adobe MVPD.

Multi-platform front ends

Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Vizio SmartCast and web — a shared core with native per-platform apps.

Playback & DRM

HLS/DASH pipelines, DRM, multi-language audio and subtitles, multiple profiles and kids modes — built for the 10-foot experience.

Analytics & QoE observability

New Relic, Conviva, Braze and Datazoom wired in from day one, so you can see quality of experience and act on it.

FAQ

OTT & FAST development, answered

What is a FAST channel?

FAST stands for Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV — 24/7 linear channels with an EPG, monetized through server-side ad insertion instead of subscriptions. We build FAST channels end to end: playout integration, EPG, DAI/SSAI and per-platform apps.

Which streaming platforms do you develop for?

Roku (BrightScript/SceneGraph), Apple TV (tvOS), Android TV and Fire TV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Vizio SmartCast, plus web desktop and mobile — from a shared architecture with per-platform native front ends.

Which monetization models can you implement?

SVOD subscriptions (Cleeng, Roku Pay, credit cards and e-wallets), AVOD with dynamic ad insertion, TVOD and pay-per-view, and TV-provider authentication via Adobe MVPD — often combined in one app.

Can you build live TV with catch-up and restart?

Yes. We ship 24/7 live linear channels with Gracenote-powered EPGs, catch-up and restart, as we did for Univision, TV Azteca Play and Telekom Malaysia.

How fast can your streaming engineers start?

Usually within 1–3 weeks. Our senior LATAM engineers work in US time zones; we handle sourcing, onboarding, payroll and retention while you direct the work.

Who owns the code?

You do. Everything is built custom for you — full IP ownership, no platform lock-in and no licensing fees.
