Streamline is a managed codec migration and video infrastructure service. We re-transcode your library to royalty-free codecs, deliver through your existing CDN, and run the entire stack — cutting 30–50% of total video cost. First library live in 7 days.
Capabilities
Every component you need — encoding, packaging, delivery, DRM, monitoring, operations — in a single managed service.
Re-encode your entire VOD library to VP9 primary with AV1 additive tier. Per-title and per-scene bitrate ladder optimisation for maximum compression at your quality target.
Deploy shadow encoders on live channels without carrying traffic. Validate quality and latency before staged cutover. Designed around your release calendar.
Widevine (L1/L3), FairPlay, PlayReady — built in. Single orchestration layer across all device tiers. No separate vendor or integration project.
Deliver through your existing Akamai infrastructure. Same edge config, same contracts. CloudBridge handles egress optimisation across providers.
Automated QA on every re-encoded asset. VMAF delta flagging catches anything below your quality floor — no manual re-screening at library scale.
Real-time dashboards: egress savings, storage delta, codec coverage by device tier. 24×7 NOC with <15 min P1 response. Quarterly SLA reports.
THE SOLUTION
VP9 powers YouTube at multi-billion-hour scale. AV1 powers Netflix. Streamline brings both to your library — without touching your Akamai CDN, your DRM, or your player.
VP9 primary • AV1 tier
AVC fallback retained
DASH + HLS • Multi-DRM
Widevine • FairPlay • PlayReady
Multi-CDN (Akamai)
Edge cache • Player SDKs
24×7 NOC • SLAs
Cost telemetry • VMAF QA
Runs in parallel alongside your existing pipeline. Fallback ladder stays live. No weekend cutovers. Staged traffic shift: 1% → 10% → 50% → 100%.
Hooks into your CMS, ad server, DRM, billing — no rip-and-replace. Developer-friendly documentation and custom integrations.
You buy savings and SLAs — not encoder seats or compute hours. Committed-savings clause: if we miss the number, you pay less.
THE ECONOMICS
These numbers are modeled for a typical tier-1 Indian OTT platform. Actuals are calibrated against your library during the 30-day audit.
| Cost line | Before | After | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Codec royalties (AVC + HEVC) | $1.2M | $0 | –100% |
| CDN / bandwidth egress | $18.0M | $12.6M | –30% |
| Storage + transcode | $5.0M | $3.6M | –28% |
| Total annual run-rate | $24.2M | $16.2M | –$8M / yr |
Payback
Annual Savings
Actuals modeled against your library size, device mix, and delivery volumes during the 30-day audit phase.
THE PROBLEM
If your VOD library runs on H.264 or H.265, you're carrying three costs that compound every quarter — and your current encoding platform doesn't fix any of them.
New H.264 annual cap
Via LA replaced the flat $100K/year streaming cap with a tiered structure. Large OTT platforms now face up to 45× higher AVC royalties.
HEVC rate increase
Access Advance raised H.265 royalty rates for new licensees from January 2026. The deadline to lock old rates expires June 30, 2026.
Tool + Licensing + CDN
Your encoding vendor charges per-minute. Patent pools charge per-user. Your CDN charges per-gigabyte. You're paying for compression three times.
SPEED
Not months. Not quarters. One week from kickoff to your first re-transcoded library streaming in production.
days go live
From contract signature to your first VP9-encoded library segment streaming through your existing Akamai CDN — with VMAF validated, fallback ladder active, and zero disruption to your current delivery.
Connect your library, configure your CDN endpoints, and set quality targets. Our platform handles the rest.
Cloud-native parallel workers re-encode thousands of titles simultaneously. No queues, no bottlenecks.
Every asset passes VMAF validation against your baseline. Nothing goes live until quality is proven.
Traffic shifts progressively — 1% → 10% → 50% → 100%. Fallback ladder stays active throughout. Roll back in seconds if needed.
24×7 NOC, SLA monitoring, cost telemetry, and ongoing optimisation — all operational from the moment you go live.
INDUSTRIES
From VOD-heavy OTT to live sports concurrency spikes — Streamline adapts to your content mix and delivery economics.
For VOD-heavy platforms at 500K+ DAU. Eliminate codec royalty exposure, cut CDN egress by 20–30%, and consolidate your video stack into a managed outcome.
Concurrency spikes blow up CDN bills. Streamline cuts bits-per-stream at equal quality, turning every tentpole event into a lower-cost delivery operation.
Launching direct-to-consumer? Start on royalty-free codecs from day one. No legacy licensing debt. Full pipeline in a single managed service.
24×7 linear delivery on tight margins. VP9 encoding reduces per-channel cost while maintaining sub-2s startup latency.
