Designed by broadcasters for broadcasters, LiveU Matrix is an essential tool that works for the newsroom; making live content management simple and affordable. Combining powerful front-end with a reliable IP cloud-based transport layer, LiveU Matrix seamlessly integrates into daily workflows, allowing news teams to share live feeds with multiple internal and cross-organizational end-points.

LiveU Matrix offers cost-effective and reliable live content distribution over the public internet with significant cost savings compared to traditional contribution and distribution methods.

The dynamic cloud platform makes it simple and cost-effective to curate content through one interface. Users can easily search, filter, preview, and distribute live feeds to one station, multiple stations, or thousands of end points within their entire network. The flexible interface can also be customized based on the user’s role. LiveU Matrix gives full visibility into all feeds available and puts the broadcaster/production crew in the driver’s seat to manage and send content anywhere.

Used by tier 1 broadcasters and leading content creators worldwide, Matrix has been built from the ground up to support well-established content sharing models with intuitive, broadcaster-oriented modes of operation. These include large affiliate networks or press agencies, media/ownership groups, national broadcasters as well as smaller local loop or event pools, and local/global content syndicators. Major news broadcasters including CBS, CNN, Cox Media Group, Fox Sports, Meredith Corporation, Quincy Media, and Sinclair Broadcast Group are curating their content with LiveU Matrix. During the COVID-19 pandemic, governors in several US states are also using LiveU Matrix to deliver their daily live briefings directly to stations and networks from remote locations.
