We Make Your OTT Dreams Come True

We push the boundaries of design systems, colour tokens, and UI libraries to maintain and seamlessly innovate our suite of products.

Simplestream is at the cutting edge of what’s new in the OTT design space, disrupting product roadmaps to keep applications fresh and polished.

Our Work
Ethos

Technical
approach

We understand that every customer is different. As part of the initial discussions, detailed requirements gathering will always take place between relevant teams. You can highlight any key integrations, integral to your project, and learn about Simplestream’s technology in-depth to make sure it’s the right fit for your needs.

Architecture
and integration

Once we fully understand your requirements, we document the solution — be it an “out-of-the-box” deployment or a service with multiple 3rd party touchpoints. The documented solution includes complete architecture for video, authentication, APIs, and integrations, from ingest to playback.

Technical support
and service expansion

When your service goes live, our dedicated technical account team is on hand to provide the latest training on Simplestream products and new features. As your services grow and expand, new integrations or features may be required. These will be scoped by our solutions architects and seamlessly incorporated into your customer roadmap.

Don’t take our word for it. Hear from our customers

Since we joined forces with Simplestream, the content management systems have allowed us to better commercialise an archive of over 100,000 videos, and distribute live streams at over 1,000 race-meetings a year. They proactively help us improve the services we can offer – both B2B and B2C – with speedy and efficient support when required.

It was critical for Channel 4 to be able to offer our live streams to OTT viewers in an accessible environment. Simplestream’s platform was easy to integrate with our services, it satisfied our requirement of flexibility to work with third parties and high levels of stability throughout the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.

We undertook a rigorous procurement process which validated the technical robustness and flexibility of the Simplestream solution. A very pleasant additional benefit was the ‘can-do’ and positive attitude displayed unfailingly by the Simplestream teams towards what was certainly not the least challenging set of tasks.
