IABM Hosts Industry Initiative Dynamic Software Licensing

Transforming Broadcast Software Licensing and Management

Stan Moote CTO – IABM

Noor Hassan, Worldwide M&E Partner Solutions Architect at AWS

The CFO’s within our industry got all excited about the switch from CapEx to OpEx with the expectation in our everchanging industry of minimizing the risk related to over or under funding CapEx investments, hence providing flexibility. The theory being moving toward software-defined workflows, budgeting for projects on a pay-as-you-go basis would provide improved business flexibility, and implementation of best-of-breed multi-vendor solutions.

The broadcast industry’s adoption of cloud-based and hybrid workflows has highlighted fundamental challenges between traditional licensing models and modern operational requirements. With the transition to software-based and cloud-based technologies, traditional approaches that correlate licenses with hardware create operational friction for system integrators, vendors, and customers.

Customers, system integrators (SIs), and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) are voicing these challenges and the impact when migrating broadcast and live production workflows to software-based, cloud or hybrid ones.

“Today’s broadcast industry requires flexible, transparent licensing models that empower media companies to experiment, scale, and innovate without friction. This collaborative initiative addresses a critical industry challenge by providing best practices for how broadcast applications are licensed and managed, enabling broadcasters to respond faster to opportunities while focusing on what matters most – creating compelling content for their audiences.” – Steph Lone, Global Leader Solution Architecture for Media, Entertainment, Games & Sports, AWS

Current Industry Pain Points

Broadcasters and media companies face numerous challenges with traditional licensing approaches. The operational complexity of managing hundreds of proprietary licensing systems across multiple vendors creates significant administrative overhead and potential points of failure.

Cost uncertainty presents another major challenge, as organizations face significant difficulties in forecasting and optimizing licensing costs across their operations. Technical barriers further complicate matters, with many licenses being tied to hardware identifiers like MAC addresses or hostnames, manual license setups; all create bottlenecks in accelerating software-based deployments. Security is a top concern that must also be considered especially with distributed, hybrid systems.

Back in the day, we all designed around having redundant systems, or at least some type of planned disaster recovery. With software licenses, a continuous audit is required to ensure the license doesn’t expire at an in-opportune time – not really practical! Not unlike in the total hardware days, the SI’s and the hardware suppliers ultimately come under fire when operations cease to work. It is issues like this that the industry is still in build and license for peak mode, rather than taking advantage of shared resources.

The Dynamic Software Licensing Initiative

Reviewing IABM members in the vendor community showed there is no common approach to licensing within the industry, so the Dynamic Software Licensing (DSL) initiative began. This initiative is a collaborative approach aimed at developing a framework of best practices for broadcast software licensing in cloud and hybrid workflows. AWS, System Integrators, vendors, and customers are working together to address current licensing challenges and propose practical recommendations to streamline software application licensing and management.

Core Principles

1. API-First Approach

The initiative implements common APIs for comprehensive license operations across platforms. These APIs provide robust support for automation and programmatic management of licensing workflows. The architecture ensures seamless integration with infrastructure as code tools, enabling modern DevOps practices.

2. Security by Design

Security needs to be built upon a zero-trust architecture framework, addressing various layers of the workflow, from access control and minimum permissions, to license key encryptions

Flexible Consumption ModelsThe system supports dimension-based licensing, where dimensions are parameters defined by vendors for their respective applications, including time-based, feature-based, and usage-based models. The architecture is designed to fully support hybrid deployments, allowing seamless operation across on-premises and cloud environments.
Proposed Technical Architecture

License Control Plane

The license control plane provides centralized management of entitlements and policies, ensuring consistent license governance. It includes comprehensive usage metering and analytics capabilities for monitoring and optimization. Security and authentication services are integrated at the core level. A common API gateway facilitates uniform access across all licensing operations.

Workspace Plane

Within the workspace plane, local license validation ensures continued operation even during network interruptions. The system supports robust offline operation capability for environments with limited connectivity. Comprehensive usage tracking provides detailed insights into license utilization. License renewal is handled through automated processes, reducing manual intervention.

Benefits to the Ecosystem

For Broadcasters and Media Companies

Broadcasters benefit from predictable operational costs through flexible and efficient licensing models and management. The system enables faster deployment capabilities, reducing time to air. Disaster recovery is enhanced through flexible license mobility. Security controls are improved through modern authentication and authorization mechanisms. Usage visibility provides clear insights into license utilization. The system offers comprehensive support for hybrid workflows, enabling flexible operations.

For Software Vendors

Vendors can implement flexible licensing models adapting to various customer needs. With automated operations and API-first approach, vendors reduce operations overhead and provide improved time-to-value for their customers.

For System Integrators

For system integrators, the complexities of licensing processes are reduced through common interfaces and APIs. This provides a more streamlined experience for their end customers, especially for multi-vendor deployments. Additionally, systems become more easily scalable and repeatable across different customers and scenarios as involved vendors use common best practices.

Looking Forward
The Dynamic Software Licensing (DSL) initiative represents a shift in how broadcast software is licensed and managed. As the industry continues its digital transformation, DSL provides the foundation for more flexible, secure, and efficient licensing operations.

Conclusion
Dynamic Software Licensing addresses a critical industry need at a crucial time in the broadcast industry’s evolution. By providing a common, secure, and flexible approach to software licensing, it enables broadcasters and vendors to embrace the benefits of cloud and hybrid workflows while maintaining operational and financial efficiencies.

Tom de Brouwer, Principal Architect, from Merapar summed this up: “We want to change the conversation from ‘what do we own?’ to ‘what can we achieve?’ This cloud-native licensing proposal is the mechanism that enables that shift, turning a static asset into a dynamic service that can respond to an opportunity in minutes, not in months.”

“Cloud-native licensing is not just a technical shift – it’s a strategic enabler for the media industry’s digital transformation. By aligning business models with modern cloud architectures, we open the door to scalable innovation and lasting partnerships.”

— Thomas Pister, VP Solutions, LOGIC media solutions GmbH

IABM members are driving this initiative, and its success will depend on continued industry collaboration and commitment to developing and accepting a common best practice towards licensing.

BCNEXXT – From Rigid Rules to Adaptive Systems – Liberate Your Playout

Graham Sharp, VP of Sales and Marketing at BCNEXXT

Playout has long been weighed down by fixed, overprovisioned infrastructure designed to handle peak demands based on rules often set years ago. This model was built for reliability, but it locks broadcasters into paying for resources they rarely use. Large amounts of compute power, storage, and bandwidth sit idle for much of the day, creating operational inefficiency and inflating costs. Today, there is a smarter path forward. Static infrastructure can now be replaced with flexible, intelligent systems capable of scaling up in real time.

From Fixed Rules to Adaptive Logic

Modern playout is moving away from rigid, rules-based architectures toward adaptive logic driven by machine learning. This new approach behaves more like a system that analyses and thinks for itself. By examining the schedule and classifying each event according to its complexity, the system can automatically deploy containerized microservices and activate the required compute, storage, or graphics resources, then release them when they are no longer needed.

Leveraging machine learning, the system can pre-label upcoming content based on its requirements. Complex graphics or DVE effects can be routed to GPU instances, while simpler events such as static branding can be processed using CPU. This intelligent allocation ensures that every resource is used to its full potential while avoiding unnecessary overprovisioning.

This is a fundamental change in how playout is provisioned. Instead of preparing for the rare peak, capacity is assigned on demand, reducing idle time and freeing budgets from high fixed costs. For broadcasters and streaming operators, that means agility: the ability to adapt instantly to a breaking news stream, a live sports feed, or a temporary event channel without overhauling the infrastructure.

Only Pay for What You Play

At the heart of this model is a simple idea: resources should only be paid for when they are in use. This “only pay for what you play” approach severs the traditional one-to-one relationship between channels and servers, ensuring that resource usage is kept to a minimum while maintaining broadcast-grade quality.

In practical terms, high-compute tasks like rendering bumpers or promos can be centralized, processed ahead of time during regular office hours, and distributed to multiple channels. This pre-assembly of file-based content well before airtime not only reduces operational pressure but also enables smarter scheduling and staffing models. Once completed, the associated rendering resources can be powered down until needed again.

The same principle applies to live content, where extra capacity is activated only during the event itself and then released. For example, a live concert on Saturday might require an upgrade in capability for a single day. With adaptive logic, that upgrade can be switched on just for the duration of the event, using existing infrastructure more efficiently. On-premises setups benefit as well, since operators can average resources across multiple channels and time periods instead of buying servers for the absolute maximum load.

Agile, Resilient, and Future-Ready

This flexibility extends beyond compute resources to the entire user experience. Even the interfaces adapt to the content type: when live events are scheduled, live monitoring and control tools appear, then disappear when the schedule returns to file-based playback.

Automation plays a critical role. Tasks that once required constant human oversight, such as ingest checks, scheduling alignment, and compliance verification, can now be automated. This frees teams from repetitive manual work and allows them to focus on high-value operational tasks. It also reduces the risk of costly on-air mistakes by ensuring that routine processes run consistently in the background.

The result is a playout ecosystem that is not only leaner and more efficient but also inherently more resilient. By using resources more intelligently, broadcasters can implement smarter redundancy strategies, reduce operational risk, and respond quickly to changes in programming.

For broadcasters, streaming platforms, and media networks, the benefits are immediate: lower infrastructure costs, better use of existing hardware, more agile workflows, and staffing models built around efficiency and adaptability. This is playout designed for the realities of today’s media landscape — flexible, intelligent, and ready for whatever comes next.

Amagi – Engineering Resilience: How Cloud-Based Disaster Recovery Is Future-Proofing Broadcast Operations

In a digital-first broadcasting world, resilience is no longer a reactive capability – it is a strategic imperative. The modern broadcaster operates within an unforgiving landscape: a single minute of downtime can translate into millions in lost revenue, compromised reputations, and a fragmented viewer experience. For an industry that still benchmarks uptime in “five 9s,” the margin for error is vanishingly slim.

As broadcasters expand globally across linear, FAST, OTT, and hybrid delivery ecosystems, traditional disaster recovery (DR) paradigms, built on mirrored infrastructure and hardware redundancy, have begun to show their age. What the industry needs is not just continuity, but continuity with agility, scalability, and cost-efficiency. This is where cloud-native disaster recovery is redefining the blueprint for operational resilience.

Systemic inefficiencies in legacy infrastructures

Traditional DR strategies are typically rooted in physical replication, duplicating on-premise infrastructure in geographically dispersed locations. This approach is relatively expensive, complex to scale, and largely reactive. Tier-1 channels may receive dedicated backup systems, but Tier-2 and lower channels often operate without adequate protection. Moreover, DR infrastructure is usually underutilized, consuming resources while sitting idle until catastrophe strikes.

Operational limitations are further compounded by the rigidity of hardware-based systems. Maintenance is manual, scalability is difficult, and recovery is sluggish, often taking hours to resume playout during an outage. Testing cycles, if they exist at all, are sporadic and labor-intensive. The demands of continuous, cross-platform broadcasting are beginning to outstrip the capabilities of traditional continuity models.

Cloud as the catalyst

Cloud technology introduces a paradigm shift by embedding resilience into the very fabric of broadcast workflows. Rather than treating DR as a bolt-on fail-safe, cloud-based disaster recovery transforms it into an agile, integrated system – one that supports proactive planning, seamless failover, and cost optimization.

Solutions like Amagi CLOUDPORT exemplify this evolution. Operating as a cloud-native platform for automation and playout, CLOUDPORT enables broadcasters to virtualize every link in the content chain, from ingestion and scheduling to live and VOD delivery while building DR capabilities directly into the core architecture.

The DR Spectrum: Configurations that scale with need

One of the key advantages of cloud DR is the ability to tailor configurations based on channel criticality and budget. Amagi categorizes its DR models into four tiers:

Hot DR: Offers real-time synchronization and dual-site playout for near-zero downtime failover. Ideal for Tier-1 channels where even seconds of disruption are unacceptable.
Warm DR: Maintains live automation with on-demand playout spin-up, balancing fast recovery with lower operating costs.
Cold DR: Activates automation and playout only during emergencies, minimizing cost for channels with less stringent uptime requirements.
On-prem Survivability: For broadcasters maintaining hybrid workflows, this option allows up to 48 hours of localized playout in the event of cloud/network outages.

This graduated model empowers broadcasters to apply granular resiliency, ensuring each channel receives the right level of protection without blanket CapEx outlays.

Resilience by design: Key cloud advantages

At the heart of Amagi’s DR strategy is a Kubernetes-based self-healing architecture, enabling automated isolation and recovery of faulty components. This design not only reduces the blast radius of failures but also simplifies operations by minimizing manual intervention.

Further differentiators include:

Automated Failover: Sub-minute recovery in Multi-AZ deployments and 10-minute recovery in Multi-Region setups.
Global Coverage: Cloud deployments across time zones eliminate the constraints of location-bound infrastructure.
Periodic Testing: Scheduled DR drills and test endpoints help verify readiness, adapt configurations, and maintain compliance with evolving SLAs.

These features coalesce to deliver a resilience posture that is not only robust but intelligent, adapting in real time to operational conditions.

Strategic implications for Broadcasters

The move to cloud-based DR isn’t just a technical upgrade – it’s a business transformation lever. By replacing CapEx-heavy infrastructure with scalable OpEx models, broadcasters gain the financial agility to invest in content and audience strategies rather than sunk infrastructure costs.

Beyond safeguarding operations, cloud-based disaster recovery functions as a strategic catalyst for broader cloud transformation. By virtualizing essential broadcast infrastructure in pursuit of resilience, organizations establish a foundational layer upon which full-scale migration to the cloud can be methodically built, enabling a phased, low-risk transition from legacy systems to agile, scalable architectures. Crucially, this evolution is in lockstep with the industry’s transition from SDI to IP-based workflows, positioning the cloud not merely as a failover environment, but as the core enabler of next-generation playout, distribution, and monetization strategies.

Reinventing Resilience: From Compliance to Competitiveness

DR has traditionally been seen as an insurance policy – essential, but dormant. Today, it is emerging as a competitive differentiator. In an era of climate volatility, geopolitical risk, and escalating cyber threats, broadcasters must engineer resilience not around the probability of failure, but the assumption of it.

Amagi’s cloud-first disaster recovery model exemplifies how resilience can be embedded into the core of operations, not just protecting business continuity but enabling it. It is a call to reframe DR from an obligation to an opportunity, to not just survive the storm, but to broadcast through it.

MRMC – Automated Camera Motion and the New Economics of Scalable Production

Paddy Taylor, Head of Broadcast, Mark Roberts Motion Control (MRMC)

As the boundaries of modern content creation continue to expand, production teams are searching for smarter ways to achieve the consistency and creative control once reserved for the most sophisticated studios. The demand for premium content is no longer isolated to broadcast networks or large media organizations; it is now a critical component of direct-to-consumer strategies across esports, gaming, corporate communications, education, live events, and branded entertainment. In this rapidly shifting landscape, content is monetized, scrutinized, and expected to perform. As a result, production capability itself has become a core economic driver and a key source of competitive differentiation.

The economics of content today hinge on a simple reality: audiences gravitate toward experiences that feel polished, dynamic, and creatively intentional. For organizations operating outside traditional broadcast, this presents both an opportunity and a challenge. They recognize the value of adopting broadcast level production standards but often lack the technical staff or budget structure historically required to achieve them. What emerges is a growing need for solutions that democratize access to professional workflows, enabling teams of any scale to produce content that supports stronger brand engagement, diversified revenue streams, and sustainable business models.

This is where automation and robotic camera technologies are reshaping the media equation. As production becomes increasingly multi-platform, serving linear, OTT, social, in venue screens, and interactive experiences, efficiency is no longer a cost saving measure but a prerequisite for agility. Robotic motion platforms, PTZ based automation, and software driven control systems are allowing teams to scale output without scaling crew, enabling them to produce more consistently and with higher creative ambition.

From a revenue perspective, this shift is transformative. Production teams are no longer simply supporting marketing or broadcast functions; they are building content engines that power sponsorship packages, subscription models, personalized viewer experiences, and real time engagement strategies. In esports, for example, high fidelity automated coverage enhances the viewing experience for both in venue and remote audiences, directly influencing tournament value, monetization potential, and the ability to attract premium partners. In the corporate world, elevated internal and external communication unlocks measurable value: clearer messaging, more captivating brand storytelling, and the ability to maintain a consistent visual identity across global operations.

For gaming publishers, content production can directly influence title adoption, community development, and fan engagement. Automated camera systems help create rich developer updates, cinematic patch notes, behind the scenes features, and influencer collaborations, all with repeatability that accelerates production workflows and supports direct to consumer ecosystems. As game worlds and live services continue to evolve, so does the demand for real time content that complements gameplay experiences, marketing campaigns, and community activations.

At the same time, adjacent sectors are beginning to converge with media and technology in ways that further increase the value of accessible, high precision robotics. Venues, brands, universities, houses of worship, and cultural institutions are all developing content strategies that mirror professional broadcast environments. Yet these organizations often operate with limited crew or hybrid roles, where operators must manage multiple tasks simultaneously. Automated motion control becomes a force multiplier, enabling a single operator to manage multi camera setups, maintain consistent shot libraries, and deliver repeatable, professional grade camera moves typically associated with a full studio team.

This is where decades of engineering R&D, such as that pioneered by companies like MRMC Broadcast, play a significant role in shaping accessible, democratized solutions. The expertise that once powered high end film and broadcast robotics has now been distilled into scalable platforms suitable for emerging markets. What was once specialist equipment used solely in top tier applications is now driving efficiency across a much broader segment of the industry. The influence of this engineering heritage is evident in the precision, reliability, and interoperability that modern robotic systems deliver, ultimately enabling organizations to adopt production technologies that directly support new business models.

The convergence between media technology and these parallel markets is accelerating. Esports productions increasingly resemble sports broadcasts; corporate studios resemble hybrid newsrooms; educational institutions are building content hubs that parallel entertainment workflows. The motivation behind these investments is not simply to modernize infrastructure, but to capture economic opportunities: sponsorship integration, tuition competitiveness, remote participation, enhanced fan experiences, employer branding, and improved stakeholder communication.

As this convergence unfolds, automation plays an increasingly vital role in bridging the skill gap between traditional broadcast and new content creators. Features such as automated presets, programmed motion sequences, and repeatable camera moves reduce the reliance on specialist operators, enabling teams to maintain professional standards regardless of staffing availability or experience. This reliability translates to reduced setup time, lower risk of error, and consistent visual output that strengthens brand credibility and viewer engagement.

Another significant factor is the shift toward hybrid and remote production models. Cloud based control, remote operation, and integrated multi venue connectivity are enabling distributed teams to manage complex productions with reduced on site presence. Automated camera robotics reinforce this trend by allowing remote operators to manage dynamic shots with the same precision they would achieve in person. This contributes directly to cost control as well as revenue potential, as organizations can scale coverage of events, offices, venues, or activations without geographic constraint.

The economic implications of this shift extend beyond operational efficiency. As organizations adopt more advanced production capabilities, they unlock new creative formats that were previously unattainable. Virtual studios, mixed reality environments, interactive live streams, and personalized viewer experience all benefit from the precision and consistency delivered by robotic systems. For businesses pursuing direct to consumer engagement, these formats are increasingly essential to staying relevant in a fragmented attention economy.

The broader industry trend is clear: production is no longer an isolated function, but a strategic asset embedded within revenue generation, brand differentiation, and consumer experience design. Teams that leverage automation can produce more content at a higher quality and with greater reliability—without the overhead traditionally associated with broadcast production. This creates a level playing field, enabling emerging creators, growing organizations, and new market entrants to compete alongside established media companies.

Ultimately, engineers and directors of technology are building production ecosystems that support long term sustainability and future proof growth. Automation and robotic motion control are not being adopted for novelty; they are being integrated to enhance resilience, unlock new creative possibilities, and position organizations to meet the rapidly evolving demands of modern content consumption. The democratization of high precision production tools marks a significant shift in how media is created and monetized, enabling teams across every sector to reimagine what is both achievable and economically viable in the next era of content driven experiences.

Grass Valley – Enterprise AV: Where MediaTech Finds New Growth

Jon Lyth, Product Director Enterprise Media, Grass Valley

The world has changed the definition of “production.” For many years, only broadcasters and studios needed to think in camera chains, multiviewers, or live production switching. Today, every company, university, hospital and government body is a media organization in disguise. The stories they tell customers, employees, or citizens, now rely on the same visual language once reserved for professional broadcast.

That shift exposes a fascinating contradiction: the audience expects broadcast quality, but the environments producing it rarely have broadcast resources. Enterprise AV is where this tension plays out. It’s a space where ambition outpaces infrastructure, and where MediaTech has a chance to lead a new creative revolution.

Raising the Segment, Not Lowering the Standard

When an event stream from a corporate stage or a university lecture looks cinematic, no one calls it “enterprise video.” They simply call it good. High-end imaging and fluid production are now baseline expectations across every domain. The question isn’t whether quality matters; it’s whether it’s accessible.

The irony is that the demand for professional results is rising fastest where professional training is rare. The world wants the reliability and aesthetic of live broadcast, delivered by teams that may have never set foot in a control room. That’s the contradiction Grass Valley has spent decades preparing to solve.

Grass Valley’s heritage was built in environments where precision meant everything; live sports, breaking news, entertainment at global scale. Bringing that DNA to the enterprise space isn’t about scaling down; it’s about scaling intelligence. The same principles of timing, image quality and operational resilience now empower organizations that never considered themselves part of the media industry.

AMPP OS makes this translation possible. It takes the depth of broadcast engineering and expresses it through software-defined simplicity. The result is a creative infrastructure that anyone can deploy, but that performs at a professional level. In other words, we’re not descending into a new market… We’re elevating it.

Compute That Adapts to the Moment

Enterprise AV demands agility. One day it’s an internal CEO address, the next a global product launch, the next a hybrid classroom. Static systems can’t justify that variability. With AMPP OS, every compute node can become what’s needed in the moment; a production switcher, a multiviewer, a recorder, or a playout engine.

This shape-shifting capability is more than technical elegance… It’s economic sense. Organizations pay for what they use, when they use it, without locking into hardware footprints that sit idle between events. Whether deployed on-prem, or in the cloud, this elasticity aligns perfectly with enterprise rhythms being unpredictable, fast-moving and cost-sensitive.

Enterprise AV isn’t just about infrastructure; it’s about identity. As communication becomes visual, video turns into a strategic language. Training, marketing, investor relations, crisis response, all rely on real-time storytelling to build trust and clarity. Yet, few enterprise systems were designed with that responsibility in mind.

MediaTech brings discipline to that chaos. It introduces the rigor of timing, the safety of redundancy and the beauty of composition to environments that desperately need them. And when these qualities meet the speed and accessibility of software-defined workflows, something powerful happens: professionalism becomes invisible. The technology disappears; only the story remains.

A Future Without Tiers

There’s a temptation to see this expansion as a new market conquest… “Broadcast enters enterprise.” But the truth is subtler. It’s a convergence. As storytelling becomes universal, the lines between media and enterprise dissolve. Hospitals broadcast training sessions. Universities run multi-camera live events. Corporations build in-house studios. What used to be “adjacent markets” are now parallel storytellers on the same continuum.

Grass Valley’s role is to make that continuum seamless, connecting the proven reliability of our hardware with the adaptive intelligence of AMPP OS, all within the open framework of the Grass Valley Media Universe. Scale and sophistication no longer live on opposite ends of the spectrum. Enterprise AV is not a step sideways; it’s a step forward. Both for the industry and for the craft. As the tools of professional media become accessible to all, the visual standard of communication rises everywhere. The result is not dilution, but evolution: an expanded definition of what it means to “go live.”

For Grass Valley, this evolution is both opportunity and obligation. We’ve spent decades refining the tools of professional storytelling. Now, we have the privilege to share them more widely and to help every organization, in any sector, communicate with the clarity and emotion once reserved for broadcast studios.

In the future, there won’t be “broadcast” quality versus “enterprise” quality. There will only be good storytelling. And the technology that enables it. The boundaries between industries are dissolving. The language of media has become universal. And as that convergence unfolds, one thing becomes clear: the world doesn’t need lower standards… It needs broader access to excellence.

wTVision – Mobile-First AR: A Strategic Frontier in the Next Media Economy

Daniel Gonçalves, Director Innovation Officer @ wTVision

Abstract:

Mobile-first AR is emerging as one of the most strategic enablers in the new media economy. By merging accessibility, interactivity, and monetization, it empowers broadcasters, media enterprises, and brands to turn passive audiences into participants. This article explores how mobile-first AR reshapes production workflows, business models, and audience engagement.

Augmented Reality (AR) has long promised to transform how audiences consume and interact with content. The latest evolution, mobile-first AR, is turning that promise into performance. In a world where content is increasingly consumed through personal devices, mobile-first AR is not just a creative format but a structural enabler of new business models across media, advertising, and live entertainment.

From Access to Engagement: A New Economics of Attention

The media economy has always been defined by how audiences access content. Linear viewing created a single revenue model based on mass attention. Digital streaming diversified it through subscriptions and targeted ads. Now, as attention migrates again, this time to mobile and interactive environments, mobile-first AR offers a hybrid model that merges participation, data, and monetization into a single ecosystem.

Unlike traditional broadcast graphics or VR experiences, AR content delivered directly through a smartphone browser (WebAR) removes friction for both producers and users. There’s no app installation, no headset barrier, and no dependency on closed platforms. The same experiences can also extend to AR glasses, unlocking a deeper level of immersion for advanced users. For media enterprises and brands, this accessibility translates into scale, a crucial factor in the new attention economy where participation equals value.

The economics of attention are shifting again: it is no longer about how long audiences watch, but how deeply they interact. Mobile-first AR converts passive viewership into measurable actions — clicks, gestures, movements, and shared moments — each of which can be monetized or tied to data-driven insights.

Democratizing Immersion

One of the most significant shifts enabled by mobile-first AR is the democratization of immersive technology. In the past, AR and VR required expensive hardware, complex integrations, and niche audiences. Today, the combination of powerful mobile devices with advanced 3D rendering capabilities and widespread 5G connectivity allows interactive AR to run smoothly on virtually any smartphone. These devices evolve at a pace rarely seen in the tech industry, continuously expanding what is possible in terms of performance and visual quality.

This accessibility reshapes the economics of production and distribution. Broadcasters and media operators no longer need to invest in heavy infrastructure to deliver AR content; they can leverage the same creative workflows used for on-air graphics or live playout. Meanwhile, brands can launch immersive campaigns without relying on app stores or proprietary platforms.

The result is a new tier of creativity that is both scalable and cost-efficient, an inflection point where innovation meets practicality.

Beyond Storytelling: Participation as Product

What sets mobile-first AR apart is its ability to redefine what “media product” means. Content is no longer just watched; it is co-experienced. Viewers become participants who explore a 3D layer of the story, engage with branded elements, or trigger data visualizations that mirror what happens live on-air.

For producers, this interactivity does not imply losing control. With AR experiences synchronized directly with live workflows, such as those managed through graphics or automation platforms, every interaction remains editorially guided. Broadcasters decide what appears, when, and how. Audiences feel empowered, while producers retain the precision of storytelling and timing that professional broadcasting demands.

This balance between participation and control makes mobile-first AR viable at scale. It brings the spontaneity of social media into the structured world of live production.

New Monetization Layers

From a business perspective, mobile-first AR introduces new monetization layers that complement existing revenue streams.

Branded activations: Sponsors can occupy immersive spaces in natural and interactive ways, extending their presence beyond traditional ad breaks.
Data-driven advertising: Every interaction generates insights, enabling personalized and measurable campaigns.
Gamified experiences: Polls, challenges, and AR mini-games tied to live broadcasts create engagement and commercial value.
Fan participation: In sports or entertainment, fans can interact with live stats, 3D replays, or augmented camera views, monetized through sponsorships or subscriptions.

AR becomes more than a storytelling tool; it evolves into a business engine that turns engagement into tangible revenue.

Convergence and Parallel Markets

The strategic potential of mobile-first AR also lies in how it bridges industries. Media technology is converging with gaming, e-commerce, and experiential marketing. Each of these sectors is built on participation — the same behavioral foundation that AR amplifies.

Broadcasters can partner with advertisers to create second-screen experiences that link live events with mobile commerce. A racing broadcast might overlay interactive 3D track maps or offer instant product tie-ins. A concert stream can turn a phone into a stage extension, offering exclusive angles or unlockable virtual rewards. Enterprises can also deliver these experiences through their own mobile apps, enabling direct engagement with users via notifications or personalized calls to action.

This convergence signals the rise of the experience economy, where consuming media and participating in it become inseparable.

A Strategic Imperative, Not an Experiment

In today’s market, innovation is not optional — it is operational. Audiences already expect interactivity as part of their everyday media experience, and mobile-first AR provides a practical and cost-effective way to deliver it.

For media enterprises, the strategic value lies in control and scalability. Mobile-first AR integrates into existing broadcast and digital workflows with minimal friction, leveraging existing teams and infrastructure. It is a democratized innovation that rewards those who evolve early rather than those who wait for maturity.

AR should no longer be viewed as an experimental add-on, but as a core layer in the evolving media stack — connecting storytelling, audience data, and monetization in a single, interactive framework.

wTVision’s Perspective

At wTVision, this evolution represents more than a technological milestone; it defines a new chapter in the relationship between real-time graphics and audience engagement. Our ongoing R&D focuses on bridging creative storytelling with operational efficiency, and mobile-first AR is a natural extension of that vision.

The recently introduced HoloGfx, unveiled at IBC 2025, embodies this vision: a cloud and browser based, mobile-first AR platform that empowers media producers and brands to transform passive viewers into active participants while maintaining full control of the experience through their existing production graphics workflow. It is not merely an innovation but a blueprint for how media can future-proof engagement, generate new revenue, and redefine the connection between content and consumer.

Witbe – Winning the Fight for the CTV Home Page: Why Prime App Placement Drives Real Streaming Revenue

Noemie Galabru, CMO at Witbe

Connected TV (CTV) platforms have become the most strategic discovery surface in today’s media ecosystem. Whether on Roku, Fire TV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, or Google TV, the home page is now the first and often the only place where viewers decide what to watch. As fragmentation grows and advertising supported streaming accelerates, visibility on these home screens has become a powerful revenue lever for content owners, FAST channels, and streaming platforms.

Yet despite the importance of prime placement, very few companies can actually verify what their users see at home. Sponsored tiles, hero banners and featured carousels are negotiated with platforms, but teams rarely know whether these placements appeared consistently, behaved correctly, or guided viewers toward the intended content. In an environment where attention is scarce and switching is easy, this lack of real-world validation has significant economic impact.

A crowded Home Page and an Overwhelmed Viewer

The average Smart TV home screen now greets users with a maze of tiles, ads, trending rows, app promotions, and recommendations. This complexity is not just a UX challenge. It directly impacts subscriber retention.

Recent consumer research highlights how discovery fatigue now shapes streaming behavior:

32% of streaming users feel fragmentation negatively affects their TV experience.
Viewers in the United States spend 14 minutes searching for something to watch. In France, this average rises to 26 minutes.
66% want a unified guide that aggregates content across all services.
19% abandon viewing entirely if they cannot quickly find content.
Nearly half of all users say they would cancel a service because they cannot easily find what they want to watch.

These findings from Gracenote’s 2025 State of Play report confirm a simple reality. Most viewers discover content through whatever appears first. When the home screen is confusing or overloaded, frustration leads to abandoned sessions and eventually to churn. According to the report, the feeling of being overwhelmed affects around 40% of viewers aged 25 to 54, the demographic most valuable to advertisers.

Why Home Page Real Estate Drives Revenue

For streaming services, the home page functions like premium retail space. Platforms decide which apps appear in the top row, which shows receive hero placement, and which promotions dominate the first screens. These choices influence:

which app is opened first
which show viewers discover
what content earns initial watch time
which ads are served
which subscription is chosen or reactivated

In many cases, platforms promote apps or programs even when those apps are not installed. This is increasingly visible on Google TV, Fire TV, and Smart TV’s interfaces. For example, a viewer searching for “Severance” on an Android TV will often be prompted to install Apple TV. This cross-service promotion means the platform home page can redirect viewing before the user ever enters a streaming app’s interface.

As AVOD and FAST services grow, home page placement has become even more valuable. TiVo’s Q2 2025 Video Trends Report shows that Smart TVs are now the dominant device for long form video, that 75% of households use their TVs daily, and that 55% of Smart TV owners consider the platform itself an important purchase factor. These findings reinforce how much influence the home page has on the beginning of every viewing session.

Smart TVs and Streaming Sticks: a Dual Discovery Economy

TiVo’s data reveals a clear split in how viewers approach content discovery.

Smart TVs

Smart TVs account for more than half of global big screen streaming, and their OS driven home pages shape mainstream household consumption. Promotions on Samsung, LG, and Vizio frequently outperform in app recommendations because they intercept users before browsing fatigue sets in.

Streaming Sticks

Devices like Roku, Fire TV Stick, and Chromecast still dominate younger, high engagement households. Their layouts surface more personalized rows, making prime placement especially influential for younger consumers.

Regardless of device type, one truth holds. The home screen determines what viewers watch first and what they might never see.

The Measurement Gap and the Need to Verify Real Behavior

Despite the financial stakes involved in home page placement, many companies still have limited visibility into whether their promotional efforts actually work for real viewers. Beyond questions of exposure, there is also the fundamental question of whether the user journey behaves as intended.

Teams regularly struggle to validate essential points such as:

Did the sponsored placement actually appear on the devices and profiles that matter
When the user clicks on the promoted tile, are they taken to the correct app or title
If the promoted content requires an app installation, does the system correctly surface the install prompt
Do device level differences or OS variations affect how the promotion behaves
Does the featured content remain visible after a device restart, profile change, or UI refresh
Are there UI conflicts where competing system recommendations override the sponsored item

With home page layouts in constant evolution, it becomes difficult to ensure that the full promotional path works end to end. A placement may appear, but the click through path might fail, return the wrong content, or behave inconsistently across platforms. These gaps affect both marketing performance and the viewer experience.

This is why the ability to verify real behavior on real devices is becoming essential. Observing the entire flow directly on physical CTV devices ensures that:

the promotion appears where it should
the tile is visible and accessible
the click leads to the correct app or correct content page
the installation suggestion appears when needed
the overall experience reflects what users truly encounter at home

Few technology providers now offer real device testing and monitoring systems capable of validating these critical viewer journeys. Instead of relying solely on platform reported data, these tools confirm that the promotional path behaves correctly from the moment the TV is turned on to the moment the content begins to play. For streaming platforms, studios, and FAST operators, this technical verification is becoming just as important as measuring exposure.

Real device testing and monitoring technology capable of remotely and automatically validating critical viewer journeys from the discovery home screen.

Conclusion: In a Fragmented World, Visibility is Everything

As streaming becomes more complex and competitive, the CTV home page has evolved into one of the most influential and expensive touchpoints in the viewer journey. With half of consumers willing to cancel a service because they cannot find what they want, discovery has become a direct driver of satisfaction and revenue, ensuring promotions behave correctly and guide viewers to the intended content is a strategic necessity.

Real device visibility into home page behavior provides confidence that promotional investments deliver the expected value. It ensures that viewers see what they are supposed to see, and that the journey from tile to playback works seamlessly.

In the fight for the home page, the advantage goes to those who can validate the experience end to end.

Vianeos – The Next Evolution in Connected Entertainment: How V.comm for TV is Redefining Viewer Engagement

Media companies today face constant pressure to find new ways to engage audiences, build loyalty, foster deeper interaction, and reduce churn. As viewing behaviors continue to evolve, the television, once the most passive screen in the home, is ready for reinvention.

That’s where Vianeos’ V.comm for TV comes in: a breakthrough that merges communication and entertainment into one seamless experience, turning traditional viewing into a meaningful connection.

From Watching to Connecting

For decades, television has been a one-way experience, something people watch, not something they participate in. V.comm for TV changes that paradigm.

Built on Vianeos’ proven communication ecosystem, it transforms any connected television into a hub for social engagement, collaboration, and real-time interaction.

Imagine joining a live show and chatting with other fans as the episode unfolds, video-calling your family directly from the big screen, or sharing reactions in real-time during an event. With V.comm, those experiences move from concept to reality.

What Makes V.comm Different

Developed initially as a Super-App for operators and enterprises, combining chat, video calls, payments, loyalty programs, news, games, and much more in one ecosystem. V.comm now extends that universe to the television, pairing a mobile-first platform with the immersive power of the big screen.

By linking a user’s mobile application to their set-top box via a simple QR code, the TV becomes an integrated node in their V.comm network. From there, users can:

Chat and share messages directly on-screen,
Make video calls through a simple USB camera connection,
Join channel-specific discussions with others watching the same program,
Utilize the TV as a collaborative space at home, in the office, or during live events.

“V.comm has always pushed the boundaries of how people communicate,” says Frédéric Fellague, Head of Products & Marketing at Vianeos. “With STB-to-STB chat and video calling, we’re creating an interactive hub that lets people connect naturally, face-to-face, wherever the TV is.”

Why It Matters for the Industry

As the media landscape shifts toward personalized and participatory experiences, the opportunity lies in transforming passive viewers into active participants.

For operators and broadcasters, V.comm for TV unlocks new engagement models, ranging from interactive shows and community chats to brand-integrated discussions, all within a secure and controllable environment. This not only strengthens user engagement but also opens new monetization paths through loyalty, gamification, and sponsored interactivity.

Looking Ahead

Television is only the beginning. Vianeos envisions a multi-device future where V.comm extends across tablets, laptops, and browsers, creating a unified communication layer for every screen in the home and beyond.

As connected entertainment evolves, one thing is clear: engagement will no longer stop at watching ; it will live in the connections viewers make along the way.

TMT Insights – Turning Complexity into Competitive Advantage: Navigating the Future of the M&E Content Chain

Kristie Fung, SVP, Product & Solution Management, TMT Insights

Streaming platforms and content owners are facing immense pressure to acquire, localize, and distribute content rapidly across numerous territories and platforms. In other words, do more with every asset, and do it faster than ever before.

Audiences now expect content to be available everywhere, in their language, on the device of their choice, and often in multiple versions or formats. At the same time, media and entertainment (M&E) leadership is asking tough questions (and rightfully so) about return on investment, margin, and which titles really justify additional budget.

That intersection between rights, scheduling, and monetization defines the current M&E playing field and has become the heart of the modern content chain. The rapid transition from linear broadcasting to on-demand content consumption has heightened the urgency for speed and flexibility, but also for something more fundamental: a mindset shift focused on agile, rapid-response operations across the entire media supply chain.

In the modern-era M&E industry, finding new ways to effectively manage rights, scheduling, and monetization will truly define competitive advantage.

For years, these three domains lived in separate silos, governed by disparate teams, systems, and metrics. Rights lived in one system managed by legal and business affairs. Scheduling was handled by programming and planning teams, often using manual tools like spreadsheets. Monetization and financial performance sat completely disconnected within another department of the business.

In a linear, channel-centric world, this separation was tolerable. There were fewer endpoints, longer planning cycles, and relatively stable windows. In today’s complex, multi-faceted supply chain, that model simply doesn’t work.

Distribution has exploded across streaming apps, FAST channels, global SVOD and AVOD partners, social platforms, and more. Every title can live in dozens of permutations at once. One title may have different cuts, ratings, formats, languages, and packages, and each with its own rights and revenue profile.

If you can’t pivot quickly and adapt to the changing landscape, then you risk customer dissatisfaction, which leads to brand erosion, which leads to lost revenue.

A perfect example revolves around audience demand. When a piece of content spikes, maybe it’s a classic film suddenly enjoying a second life with a younger demographic, you no longer have months to respond. You might have weeks or even days to spin up a campaign, release an extended version, or repackage the title for a seasonal event. If your rights data, localization assets, and scheduling tools are in different systems, you’ll struggle to answer the basic questions: Do we have the rights to do this? In which territories? In which formats? And how quickly can we get it to market?

That’s why real-time visibility into content readiness, localization assets, and rights availability has become such a difficult but critical problem to solve.

In most organizations, the challenge is not lack of data. Plenty of data usually exists but it’s scattered across legacy rights systems, email threads, in shared drives or spreadsheets. Every update becomes a manual process, and decisions are made using incomplete or outdated information. By the time a team has “guesstimated” what to do first, the moment of opportunity has probably already passed.

The next-generation content chain has to move from reactive management to proactive execution. Instead of teams shuttling incomplete information back and forth, organizations need a connected, integrated ecosystem where the state of each asset is visible and data-driven, all the way from acquisition through localization and packaging to delivery.

That means being able to see, at a glance, which titles are cleared for which regions, what versions and languages actually exist, what still needs to be produced, and how those choices relate to projected revenue.

It also means moving toward a more predictive model that can flag when new markets or platforms could unlock incremental value, and then trigger the operational workflows required to capitalize on an opportunity.

Supporting this market shift are technology resources like TMT’s Focus, a platform designed to bridge strategic content planning with operational execution through a “single pane of glass” dashboard view.

Focus was built based on years spent inside leading media organizations working shoulder to shoulder with their teams. We saw the same pattern repeatedly: everyone was working hard, but separately. There was no foundational layer connecting every department around a single version of the truth so they could orchestrate complexity rather than fight it.

Companies like Crunchyroll are leading the charge in modernizing their content supply chains using tools like Focus. As the global leader in anime content, streaming, and fandom, Crunchyroll leverages Focus to enhance cross-functional collaboration among Programming, Content Operations, and Distribution. The software solution strengthens communication and alignment across these groups, increasing opportunities to streamline the content supply chain.

Focus gives teams real-time visibility across the entire content library by analyzing programming strategy and aligning it with inventory availability. This drives localization planning, informs the overall content delivery process, and optimizes operational costs – enabling faster, smarter decisions. As they will continue to grow globally, having this depth of insight and automation is essential to effectively reach their fans and support dynamic regional strategies.

By centralizing data on content availability, localized assets, and readiness, Focus provides a solution that Crunchyroll can utilize to efficiently align content with regional demand.

Traditional tools do a good job within their lane: a MAM manages assets, a rights system tracks contracts, a scheduling tool builds grids or slates, and a financial system models revenue. What they don’t do is give cross-functional teams a shared canvas where planning, rights, operations, and finance can all see the same data and act on it together.

Focus acts as that unifying layer for the entire content chain. It integrates with existing systems but pulls users into a shared environment where decisions about rights, windowing, packaging, and scheduling are made with the benefit of market-based context.

One of the most powerful shifts we see when organizations adopt this model is the change in cadence between planning and day-to-day operations. Traditionally, scheduling and operations have been tightly linked in theory but disconnected in practice. Programming might build a slate in a spreadsheet or point tool, then email it to operations and hope everything lines up. In Focus, that handoff becomes a real-time painless collaboration. As soon as a programmer assembles a schedule, it kicks off a structured series of checks and tasks: confirming rights, validating which assets exist, triggering localization work orders, and surfacing any gaps long before a launch date is at risk.

When teams trust that they’re working from accurate, unified data, they’re willing to be more ambitious with their content strategies. They can experiment with limited-time events, regional stunts, or cross-platform campaigns because they know the organization can execute. And when the data shows that an older title is gaining traction in a new market or demographic, they can quickly act before the spike fades.

The future of our industry is driving toward data and automation, but not at the expense of replacing human creativity or editorial judgment. The real opportunity lies in giving those teams better tools and clearer visibility so their creative decisions land in the market faster.

Rights, scheduling, and monetization can no longer be thought of as sequential steps handled by different departments. The organizations that win will be those that treat their supply chain as a strategic asset, not a back-office function. By unifying data and connecting workflows, M&E organizations can turn complexity into a competitive advantage.
