What makes Amagi ON-DEMAND unique

Amagi ON-DEMAND is a unique product in the market that offers an ‘ingest-once-for-multiple-deliveries’ option to content owners. Once a content asset is ingested on Amagi ON-DEMAND, it can be stored and normalized for any number of deliveries in the future, considerably reducing the time taken to bring VOD content assets for viewing.

As a preferred platform partner for many OTT/FAST service providers globally, Amagi has extensive knowledge of platform specifications and the capability to customize the delivery accordingly. This capability is further enhanced through Amagi ON-DEMAND, which tailors content formats to suit each platform’s unique requirements, removing the burden of managing disparate delivery specs for content owners.
