Lawo A__line nodes are designed to serve as IP audio stageboxes for mc² consoles, audio extensions for the V__matrix ecosystem, or as stand-alone IP audio gateways.

A__line devices provide distributed audio connectivity that makes it easy to scale audio I/O capacity in a networked system — temporarily or permanently. SMPTE ST2110-compliant, A__line offers a granular audio format selection similar to the flexibility found in baseband modular I/O systems, but eliminates system design limitations like maximum channel count per frame, fixed channel capacity per device interconnect, or fixed overall system size. Audio endpoints connected to A__line nodes can be seamlessly shared on LAN or WAN, and thanks to their fully standardized streaming technology, can interconnect to a wide variety of IP-enabled broadcast devices — A__line nodes are brand-agnostic.

A__line devices boast exceptional audio quality. Discrete, Class-A microphone preamplifiers deliver a superb dynamic range of 119dB(A), ultra low noise at all gain levels and a perfectly flat frequency response. Versatile analog I/O accommodates levels as high as +24dBu before clipping. Insertable, precise sample rate conversion is available on each AES3 input. For multichannel baseband interfacing, A__line features bi-directional MADI access via SFP. All devices employ the ST2110-30/31 and AES67 standards to transport uncompressed audio in real-time on Layer-3 IP networks, with ST2022-7 Seamless Protection Switching with dual-redundant network interfaces and ample receive buffer capacity to meet ST2022-7 class C specs for LAN and WAN deployment. Two redundant power inlets complete the package, along with PPM metering for all Analog and AES3 interfaces and PTP/Wordclock sync and conversion.

The A__line family includes:

• A__stage48 – 32x mic/line in, 16x line out, 8x AES3 in, 8x AES3 out, 1x MADI, 8/8 GPI, 3RU


• A__stage64 – 32x mic/line in, 16x line out, 8x AES3 in, 8x AES3 out, 1x MADI, 8/8 GPI, 4RU


• A__stage80 – 32x mic/line in, 32x line out, 8x AES3 in, 8x AES3 out, 1x MADI, 8/8 GPI, 3RU


• A__mic8 – 8x mic/line in, 4x line out, 8/8 GPI, 1RU


• A__digital8 –8x AES3 in, 4x AES3 out, 8/8 GPI, 1RU


• A__digital64 – 32x AES3 in with SRC, 32x AES3 out, 1x MADI, 8/8 GPI, 3RU


• A__madi6 – 6x MADI, 1RU

When controlled with Lawo’s VSM broadcast control system, A__line stageboxes provide an advanced set of networking options; VSM manages A__line’s AoIP connections, I/O settings, its non-blocking internal routing matrix, and GPIO signals for smooth integration into an overarching operational workflow.

A__UHD Core is the revolutionary new audio engine for Lawo’s mc² audio production consoles. Designed as a network-based, software-defined IP DSP engine with unparalleled processing density: 1,024 mc²-grade DSP channels, which can either be utilized by a single mc² console, or be shared amongst multiple consoles for effective and space-efficient resource pooling: A__UHD Core’s Pooling license allows users to split the massive DSP power across multiple consoles, powering up to four independent audio consoles with 256 fully-featured mc² DSP channels each. As a result, only one A__UHD Core now does what previously required four individual console cores.

Plenty of reliability features are built-in. A__UHD Core features four independent IP audio streaming engines, each with a redundant pair of 10*/1 GbE network ports (SFP). The device is fully based on open standards and supports Audio-over-IP I/O via ST2110-30/-31, AES67 and RAVENNA. Each network interface supports up to 512 Rx & Tx streams with stream sizes from 1 to 128 audio channels. Redundant hot-swappable PSUs are standard, as well as network interface redundancy for all streaming and management ports, allowing redundant IP network paths using ST2022-7 Seamless Protection Switching and adheres to the Class C specification for deployment within LAN or WAN environments, allowing redundant A__UHD Core units to be housed just about anywhere on the planet—and still take over instantly if the need arises.

Finally, a flexible licensing model makes A__UHD Core ideal for both mobile applications and facility use. For mobile, the scalable DSP performance with temporary licenses is a great way to turn CAPEX into OPEX, whilst in facility applications, the possibility of resource pooling and flexible allocation of DSP resources to multiple physical and GUI-based mixing surfaces maximizes ROI for your audio infrastructure. This flexible software licensing offers fixed and temporary licenses to provide exactly what you need, when you need it. Licenses are stored on USB dongles and can be conveniently downloaded, allowing for seamless transfers from unit to unit.

Best of all, A__UHD Core’s functionally is defined by its software, making it a future-proof investment with a feature-set that is designed to expand.

HOME is a management platform for IP-based media infrastructures. It is designed to connect, manage and secure all aspects and instances of live production environments. HOME provides the tools and centralized services for swift and effective interaction of engineers with their tools.

HOME is cloud-native by design and ready to run anywhere, irrespective of the system’s size. With HOME, the cloud starts on your campus, private and locally. It turns an array of devices, setups, sites, hubs and data centers into a powerful, agile network — quickly and in a perfectly secure way.

Inside HOME, discovery of devices is automatic, while registering and admitting them to the network is only a button press away.

With the adoption of IP well underway, the focus of operators has shifted from whether to adopt IP to how to use its potential with minimal effort and maximum effect. This is where HOME shines: it addresses all pressing issues real-world operators face today and tomorrow. In one place and via a single, platform-agnostic, intuitive user interface.

Lawo’s HOME platform is based on open standards such as ST2110, NMOS, IEEE802.1x and RADIUS and has been designed and built from the ground up using LUX—the Lawo Unified Experience, a framework for conceiving, designing, and building solutions that put you first and defines the standard for user experience and design across the Lawo portfolio.

Discovery and Registration: HOME solves IP complexity with automatic plug & play discovery of IP audio and video devices, which are registered with their name, location, status and type. This applies not only to Lawo products but to third-party solutions as well via NMOS. Discovered devices are managed in a central inventory list, ready for access and configuration.

Device Management: In today’s hectic live broadcast environments, operators rely on speedy, unified device configuration routines, especially when setting generic device parameters or configuring senders and receivers. The ability to save and recall configurations is key to speed up tasks. HOME provides a centralized “mission control” for these processes, providing fast and unified access to device parameters for easy tweaking, irrespective of the end point being controlled.

Operability: With its simple, user-friendly UI, HOME allows users to organize and access processing services. With all required facilities accessible in one place, operators can set up and change stream configurations, and route them across an infrastructure without the need for a separate controller. For large infrastructures HOME works seamlessly with a broadcast controller in the same set-up and helps to speed up configuration and operation. HOME is based on LUX, a UI language common to all Lawo devices and many of their functionalities. Through HOME’s user interface, operators can access and edit device parameters quickly utilizing integral mechanisms that help get the job done efficiently. With HOME, operators quickly get right to what they’re looking for, without distractions and complications, to focus 100% on the task at hand.

Security: The content created by a production crew and transported over a network is any operation’s most valuable asset and deserves strong protection. While a robust security system needs to cover all aspects of media infrastructure and content creation, the key lies in its simplicity. HOME provides a variety of security strategies, first of which is quarantining unknown devices when they come online. Only after being deliberately approved, via an intuitive IEEE802.1X-based routine, can they begin exchanging signals with the HOME network. Secondly, HOME uses an authentication strategy based on a centralized user management system, with dedicated user roles and groups. The LDAP based service allows users to authenticate either locally – within HOME – or via their own corporate IT infrastructure, e.g. Microsoft® Active Directory. Finally comes the arbitration of devices and individual streams based on pinpointed rights management. HOME’s architecture is prepared to manage services such as transport layer security, network segmentation and other IT security mechanisms such as RADIUS.

Scalable Architecture: Home is cloud-native by design, which means that its architecture is built to run detached from hardware constraints. This does not automatically mean that services must be outsourced to an external service provider whose meter is running 24/7; with HOME, the cloud starts on your campus, private and locally, on COTS hardware. The HOME platform is designed as functional blocks that provide microservices, which are self-contained and supply functionality to operators or other services.

HOME can be expanded with additional services at any time to increase its functionality — the platform scales on demand. Should there be a need for a larger RDS, because the installation grows, additional instances of the required resources can be added anytime. One of the core principles of HOME is its focus on the utilization of open standards wherever possible, for broadest compatibility and future-proof integration. With HOME, flexibility and resource utilization in IP media infrastructure maximizes.

Lawo’s new V__matrix IP broadcast video core infrastructure product will change your idea of what a broadcast facility looks like from legacy to future, quickly transforming any broadcast installation into a flexible, future-proof production facility, addressing a wide range of workflows and supporting your transition to a totally IP-based environment.

V__matrix is the first of its kind. Free from the restrictions of legacy hardware platforms, it offers a completely virtualized real-time routing and processing infrastructure. Instead of connecting single purpose modular products in elaborate production chains, V__matrix employs data center principles of flexibility, fabric computing and COTS economics and makes these available to any live production broadcast environment. Whether an OB truck, a TV studio or a broadcast operation center, V__matrix creates a fully virtualized facility infrastructure. The V__matrix ecosystem is based on generic high capacity FPGA-based processing blades upon which Virtual Modules (VM) are loaded to create the functionality required. Multiple cores are connected through redundant 40GE (or 4x 10GE) Ethernet interfaces to an IP network to form a distributed IP routing and processing matrix that provides frame-accurate, clean switching just like a legacy baseband matrix.

The V__matrix ecosystem scales linearly from tens to thousands of I/O and processing functions which make it ideal for any size live broadcast facility, small or large. Capabilities easily scale as well. An entire production workflow can be remapped in minutes when requirements change from production to production. The functionality of any processing blade can be exchanged, enabling system capabilities to easily be modified or upgraded to address your constantly changing business requirements. The V__matrix pool of generic processing blades provides ultimate flexibility; with software-defined functionality they can be configured and called upon to handle the peaks and troughs of seasonal production demands and with Lawo’s innovative licensing model, Virtual Modules can be assigned to a particular processing blade or be stored in an on-site license server allowing for unprecedented flexibility.

The V__matrix ecosystem can be divided into two parts: physical and virtual. The physical consists of the C100 processing blade and associated hardware which provides the compute and processing capacity of the platform; the more compute power you have the more functions you can run. Since V__matrix is a fully IP-based platform, the C100 processing blade can be placed anywhere there is an IP network. It can be decentralized and spread over one or more facilities or centralized in a core facility or OB truck. A hybrid approach is also possible where some core equipment is kept on-site while a pool of processing power is kept in a remote data center. This decentralized approach allows the technical operation center to be situated in a purpose-built data center outside of town where space, power and cooling is inexpensive, while talent and studios can be in another area.

The virtual world is centered around the software which defines the functionality of the platform. The software packages are called Virtual Modules (VM) and in the V__matrix they allow the function-agnostic core processing hardware to build complex workflows by simply running the appropriate VM. Combining VMs allows the creation of complete production chains fulfilling all broadcast requirements in a fully virtualized environment. As all functions of the V__matrix ecosystem are software-defined it is the ultimate future-proof platform. Changing the functionality of your broadcast plant is as easy as changing the software modules loaded onto the processing blades. By cascading multiple VMs together, the V__matrix scales linearly up to thousands of SDI I/O and audio/video processing functions for unparalleled scalability, flexibility, versatility and cost-efficiency. The current line-up of V__matrix Virtual Modules include:

• vm_streaming – SDI-to-IP Gateway


• vm_udx 4K/HDR Format Converter – IP Up/Down/Cross and Color Space Converter


• vm_mv16-4, vm_mv18-4 & vm_mv24-4 — 4K Multiviewers


• vm_dmv – World’s first expandable distributed 4K IP Multiviewer

V__matrix multiviewer VMs are controlled by Lawo’s groundbreaking touch operated configuration system “theWALL”. This unique HTML5 based GUI makes mosaic configuration with borders, colors, UMDs, tally etc. a simple case of drag and drop.

Lawo's V__remote 4 is designed to provide a one-box solution for all the requirements of video and audio signal transport and processing in WAN-based remote productions. It includes everything from Video-over-IP coding to various monitoring and processing tools. All designed for one purpose: to provide a tool that increases the flexibility of any broadcast application, while saving valuable rack-space, set-up time and production costs. With its virtual cabling capability, V__remote 4 leverages IP infrastructure advantages and cost savings to provide an unparalleled degree of flexibility and scalability.

In remote live production, IP is becoming a fundamental requirement, and getting reliable, low latency and high-quality video from venues back to studios at reasonable cost is an absolute necessity. The Lawo V__remote 4 achieves this by combining a bi-directional, four-channel Video-over-IP interface, four local SDI inputs and outputs, and all the processing tools usually needed when contributing video and audio via WAN or LAN to a broadcast production, into a compact 1RU devices.

V__remote 4 provides four 3G / HD/ SD SDI inputs and four 3G / HD / SD SDI outputs for interfacing to external video equipment, and converts these signals into IP streams (and vice-versa). These streams can be transported via standard Layer 3 IP LANs or WANs. V__remote 4 provides parallel encoding in multiple streaming formats, making the same signal available to different applications – e.g. RAW for local production, JPEG2000 for remote sites, MJPEG and H.264 for monitoring applications, and H.264 for internet distribution. The IP-based approach allows easy signal routing via Lawo’s VSM control and monitoring system or other external master control systems. No rewiring is needed as long as all devices are connected to the network. Since the device is based on real network technology with multicast capability, it allows easy transmission of signals to multiple outputs within the network.

The V__remote4’s coding engines are designed to meet the highest demands for video quality and signal transport reliability. The extremely robust J2K codec (with a special protection algorithm for signal transport even on unreliable WAN connections) and ST2022-7 port redundancy ensure signal availability and quality. Lawo’s EPS technology for enhanced protection switching goes even further, enabling system designs with true hardware and network redundancy. Format and quality of the IP video streams can be configured individually to provide the optimum balance of picture quality, latency and bandwidth. Its 6 Ethernet ports are connected to an internal switch allowing “tunneling” of IP traffic such as camera control, RAVENNA streams or even office and Internet IP, through the 10GBit interface.

vm_dmv is a true revolution in multiviewer technology. Leveraging the power of IP using Lawo’s advanced V__matrix IP video routing & processing platform, vm_dmv lets you build a true 4k UHD multiviewer that can easily grow and adapt to suit your unique requirements. Build a system as small as 24 inputs and 4 control heads, or as large as 768 inputs with 128 heads – and beyond.

The secret lies in the pairing of Lawo’s unique LiveView™ technology and V__matrix architecture. vm_dmv “virtual module” apps run on C100 blades inside a Lawo V__matrix rack unit, which accepts SDI and 40GbE connections. Combining LiveView™ with the ability to “cluster” C100 processing blades keeps bandwidth requirements low, while enabling incredible scalability. Need more inputs or more control heads? Simply load another vm_dmv module to increase system capacity.

vm_dmv takes full advantage of modern network design. It utilizes a distributed architecture, with multiple software modules running on C100 blades within V__matrix frames connected via IP. Individual modules can be hosted in the same frame, or located in different frames within your facility — even in an entirely different location altogether. Which means you can also have multiviewer heads wherever you need them: Master Control, remote production facilities, even OB vans. No other multiviewer system can give you this kind of flexibility.

Traditional multiviewers require massive amounts of bandwidth because they generate control head PiPs using incoming video signals at full-scale. vm_dmv solves the bandwidth problem with cutting-edge LiveView™ MIP-mapping technology. Each incoming signal is optimized and downscaled, then served as four simultaneous streams of differing sizes. These streams become the PiPs used in each multiviewer head; once a source is present, it can be displayed by any (or every) head in the system. LiveView™, coupled with V__matrix’s 40GbE IP backbone, provides true bandwidth efficiency, ultra-low latency, and one-to-many source distribution.

vm_dmv is space-efficient, too. Each V__matrix rack frame accommodates two C100 blades, making it possible to deploy a 48-8 vm_dmv multiviewer system using only 1RU of space. And because the system is built on a true-IP backbone utilizing the ST2110 and ST2022 standards, you can build a distributed architecture, with V__matrix frames placed adjacent to source inputs and connected via Ethernet —instead of running cable bundles to the central rack room.

A groundbreaking multiviewer deserves an equally groundbreaking control and configuration system. vm_DMV is controlled with Lawo’s “theWALL”, a unique HTML5-based GUI that makes mosaic configuration with borders, colors, UMDs, tallies and more a simple case of drag-and-drop. Configure any monitor wall, route signals, change mosaic layouts, save and load user presets. theWALL does all this and more, with a smart, intuitive touch interface that’s a snap to use. Ideal for EICs, line producers and operators, theWALL gives every member of your production team the power to change their monitor wall layouts on-the-fly in seconds flat.

Define your surround mix

Surround Suite delivers all the control needed to define, enhance and fine-tune your surround mix to perfection. Achieve natural and coherent upmixing from stereo to 5.1 and 7.1 via Halo Upmix, take advantage of ISL's transparent True Peak limiting and SEQ-S's linear phase EQ in surround modes, and complement your surround workflow with Halo Downmix's precise and tweakable downmixing.

Natural extension

With unique centre channel management, including switchable dialog extraction, Halo Upmix is perfect for all types of production from archive restoration and TV through to the full 7.1 feature film experience. With surround delivery requirements becoming more and more common, a tool like Halo Upmix can be indispensable. Unlike legacy upmixing practices, Halo Upmix offers full downmix compatibility. For those working in Dolby Atmos, Auro 3D and Ambisonic environments, a 3D immersive audio option is also available.

Complement your workflow

Precise surround control, versatile downmix balancing and mix monitoring for accelerating and enhancing your surround productivity. Halo Downmix is the glue that brings your workflow together, allowing you to deliver in surround and stereo with ease and without compromise.

Transparent, reliable

No need to second guess your sample-peak limiter time and again, or deliberately increase headroom to avoid a downstream problem. Just dial in your True Peak limit and let ISL take care of the rest. Unlike traditional limiters, ISL provides a TPlim control, automatically adjusting transfer curve parameters for minimally invasive brick-wall protection.

Unparalleled flexibility

SEQ-S gives you EQ matching up to 7.1, with stereo mid/side operation and automated spectrum analysis. Automated EQ morphing allows for controlled scene transitions and creative sound design possibilities.

For post and broadcast

Surround delivery requirements are becoming more common, making a consistent surround workflow indispensable for anyone in post production. Expand your existing stereo and 5.1 mixes with zero artificial reverberation or chorusing effects, tweak and refine with True Peak limiting and powerful EQ sculpting/matching/morphing, and then fine-tune your downmix to ensure the best possible stereo fold-down.

Powerful stereo widening

Stereoizer is a stereo width plug-in with a clear difference - your mix will still sound great in mono. Add natural sounding width and depth to any recording, mono or stereo, leaving the character of the source intact. Or go super wide - the choice is yours.

Achieve a more coherent sound with polish and spatial balance, without adding artificial reverb, chorusing or delay. Total mono compatibility and no unwanted artefacts.

Add clarity & focus

Expand your stereo image. Mono to stereo, stereo to super-wide and everywhere in between. Natural extension or extreme effects, Stereoizer provides it all, with plenty of presets & detailed control for the expert.

• Natural panoramic extension


• No unwanted artefacts


• Retains original character


• Highly mono compatible


• Band limited precision


• Dynamic visual feedback

Detailed stereo extension

Each of Stereoizer's algorithms adapts the characteristics of your audio using techniques based on the way the human ear perceives width. The IID (Interaural Intensity Difference), ITD (Interaural Time Difference) and Linear Width algorithms work independently of each other, giving you maximum flexibility. For more lively adjustments, use the IID and ITD controls; the Linear Width control is more subtle and, crucially, leaves the 'centre space' of your mix untouched.

Highly mono compatible

Mono compatibility is easily overlooked, but is as important now as it has ever been. Many club and PA sound systems are still set up for mono playback, and the majority of portable radios, smartphones and many TV sets are mono.

Stereoizer does not add any artificial reverberation, which means no disruptive artefacts such as doubling/chorusing effects or phase cancellation affecting your mono signal. The 'Collapse output to mono' option allows you to check mono compatibility on the fly for your own peace of mind.

For post production and restoration

Stereoizer is a gift for subtle enhancement of ambience sounds, clearing space for dialog in the centre, or even injecting stereo liveliness into formerly mono recordings.

Whether restoring old recordings or optimising new recordings for louder playback, Stereoizer allows for natural-sounding extrapolation of your existing stereo image. This can be used to re-introduce natural ambience which may have been lost during other stages of the production process.

Stereo frequency analysis

Stereoizer's visual analysis displays how your stereo field deviates from the centre. This is measured against frequency from 20Hz to 22kHz, allowing for frequency-conscious adjustments without the need to refer to a separate analysis plug-in.

Typical applications

• Expanding a narrow stereo image


• Introducing width to mono recordings


• Adding movement


• Taming eccentric material


• Creating 'centre space'


• Avoiding unnecessary EQ

Pan control for the 21st century

Stereoplacer is an advanced fine-tune parametric balancing control. You can tune each band into specific frequencies and move the frequency content around in the stereo sound stage. Just choose the position you want, and let Stereoplacer take care of preserving the balance of the original sounds.

Choose the frequencies you want to fix and move them anywhere, leaving the rest of the stereo image intact. Make improvements in any area of the sound stage without causing problems elsewhere. Stereoplacer gives you precise control you just can’t get within a traditional mix setup.

Enhance recordings

Focus in on the frequencies you want to move using the intuitive solo controls and then tweak/fix/align them in the stereo panorama without affecting any other regions - simple, quick and effective!

• Fix poor recordings


• Ideal for restoration


• Reposition complex audio


• Reconstruct mono image


• Dynamic visual feedback


• Harmonic capture

Flexible controls

With fully adjustable curves (bell, high and low shelving and even additional linked-harmonic overtones) you can redistribute stereo information with subtlety, or make powerful corrections – even moving hard-panned frequencies from one side to the other – without affecting the overall level balance of the material.

'Panning' the bass

Sometimes a mix calls for a bass element, say the bass guitar track, to be panned away from the centre. Often this is best avoided as off-centre high energy in the low frequencies can create more problems than it resolves. Using Stereoplacer, however, the low frequencies can be kept in the centre whilst higher frequencies (i.e. the attack component) are moved across the stereo field with a shelving band. This gives the impression that the bass part has been panned, when really only the high, directional frequencies have been affected.

You can also achieve the opposite effect, pulling stray low frequencies back into the centre without affecting the entire sound.

With each node it is possible to add a number of additional harmonically linked bell curves, all referenced from the one ‘root’ control point.

For post production and restoration

Re-position specific elements or achieve gentle linear phase adjustment of your entire mix. Extrapolate and re-balance poorly positioned instruments whilst leaving the rest of the soundfield intact. You can even add stereo detail to previously mono recordings, leaving the original character intact.

Typical applications

• Panning sounds in sample loops


• Fixing poor microphone placement


• Shifting problem frequencies


• Double tracking stereo distribution


• Extrapolating poorly panned sounds

Ad Insertion Platform's DAIConnct SSAI platform functions as an enhanced solution to manage server-side-ad-insertions for live and on-demand content. Our technology enables dynamic and personalized insertion of video advertising via HLS and Mpeg-DASH protocols, guaranteeing a best-in-class end-user experience without buffering or latency issues.

DAIConnect Suite is composed of 4 independent components working together to fulfil exact customer needs.

• Ad Break Composer


• DAI Manifest Manipulator


• DAI Optimizer


• DAI Insight

The Ad Break Composer:

The Ad Break Composer is the core component of the solution.

It is in charge among other features to:

• Create, edit and apply rules for each ad break and each user based on multiple parameters.


• Mix ads coming from one or more ad server/SSP combined with optional ad bumpers, interstitials or promos


• Add external and contextual data to target your audience


• Validate creatives and adapt creatives video formats, apply or change tags/categories


• Benefit from the various ad inventory split features (volume, device, SCTE35 event ID ...)


• Adapt the insertion workflow as needed day per day or minutes per minutes without interruption or downtime


• Manage dynamically ad parameters from player query parameters or with default values, per channel, time period, VOD catalogs


• Configurable Ad server prefetching

The DAI Manifest Manipulator:

This component is the processor in charge of the manifest manipulation for SSAI. It is executing the following tasks: 

• Manipulate the HLS or MPEG-DASH manifest for each user to enable one-to-one targeting ad insertion; the Ad Pod created by the Ad Break Composer is inserted for each user session


• Manage multiple HLS tags for ad insertion (#EXT-X-CUE-OUT/IN, #EXT-OATCLS-SCTE35, #EXT-X-DATERANGE-)


• Support HLS versions v3 and higher


• Push on storage ad trackers information for server-side ad tracking


• Insert additional information in the manifest (for client-side tracking for example)


• Provide a monitoring interface to detect any issue coming from the sources, the system itself or third components like ad servers

The DAI Insights

Data is critical for customers and our DAIConnect is the bridge between these two words. This position is ideal to be able to store, analyze and process data coming from the Adtech components or the video delivery part.

DAI Insight provide so features like:

• Validate / Analyze your ad insertion number regarding ad servers


• Get insights on your ad performance and fill rate


• Analyze data regarding audiences even if the CDN delivery is not done by yourself


• Easy dashboard to get insights on audience, device split, ad insertions, etc.


• Transparent data view, available to different parties (Device Manufacturers, Broadcasters / Publisher, Content owner…)


• Allow data storage activation to be able to generate graphs and reports

DAI Optimizer

The main function for this component is to provide services allowing:

• Optimizing the value of the ad inventory by enabling unified header bidding auctions with AIP ad Network.


• Connections to multiple demand sources to retrieve the highest revenue for each opportunity.


• Work with multiple ad partners to sell your unsold inventory at the best price.


• Increase programmatic revenues and fill rate.

Why we are different

For broadcasters and video content providers, an inherent tension exists between the need to deliver a premium viewing experience – complete with start-over and time-shifted TV functionality – and to monetize streaming video offerings and services. The challenge of monetizing over-the-top (OTT) video content will only continue to grow as viewership on connected devices increases.

Ad Insertion Platform goes beyond SSAI and offers an end-to-end solution to meet market demands:

• User Interface, many SSAI solutions are API managed. At AIP, we decided to provide a full-feature platform. It can of course be managed by API, but it has a user-friendly interface allowing not only technical DevOps to work on the platform but also staff coming from the Adtech universe.


• Workflow and orchestration management through the “Ad Break Composer” application. All SSAI have quite basic features, managing ad bumpers, one call to an ad server and a final filler. Our solution provides a workflow editor to create events on a calendar. Each event contains the workflow that the SSAI will do when detecting an ad break. Many features are included as for example Volume Split, that allows to do a specific action or call for x% of the simultaneous viewer and another process for the rest. Or device split, to define what to insert for mobile users for example and what to insert for CTV users that will be different.


• Monitoring: DAIConnect includes a monitoring view allowing to detect any issue on production regarding the input streams, the platform itself or the third parties’ elements like ad servers.


• Statistics and data: Our DAI Insight component allows our customer to retrieve data and statistics about their service. All data can come from the video delivery part (like audiences) or from the Ad tech third parties, like the number of ads inserted, fill-rates, number of missed opportunities, etc.


• One solution for FAST and AVOD. The platform is managing from a simple interface live and VOD offers allowing the customer to have a central solution for both services


• Complex encoding workflow. The solution is natively multi-CDN, DAIConnect proposes a user interface to define the encoding workflow and ad delivery processes.


• Ad reviewing, as the system can call multiple ad servers and can also add ads coming from programmatic, if the customer wants to guarantee that the ads are compliant with their rules, the platform can block non-reviewed ads and is providing an interface to make a visual validation by the user.


• Multi-cloud deployment. The solution runs on multiple public cloud infrastructures like AWS and Google Cloud Platform but can also be deployed on-premises for operators willing to do SSAI on their own infrastructure and CDN.


• Simplicity: we take care of the complexity of ad insertion and bridge the gap between the video delivery infrastructure and the AdTech components, so you can focus on your content.


• Fully agnostic: as we serve as an abstraction layer, we can work with major ad servers, SSPs and DSPs assuring retrieval of all the market demand for your inventory.


• Independency: with our DAIConnect platform your ad pod management is not linked to your ad server, giving you flexibility for the ad break composition rules and logic.


• Transparency: instead of using the “blackbox” SSAI component from your ad server, you can have full control and transparency.


• Cost optimization: changing parameters if your inventory sales are not performing is easy and does not require additional technical integration costs


• Monitoring: we offer full insights and access to aggregated data regarding audiences and ad insertion statistics to analyze your KPI.
