Cloud playout services of Singular.live to be optimized through partnership with Akta, for the improvement of broadcast graphics.
In a groundbreaking move, Akta and Singular.live have joined forces to bring next-generation workflows to the live linear TV industry. This collaboration aims to provide adaptive and data-driven interactive overlays, revolutionizing the way broadcast-quality graphics are integrated into cloud-native broadcast workflows.
At the heart of this collaboration are FLEX channels, live linear TV channels scheduled entirely in the cloud. The scheduling of these channels is facilitated by artificial intelligence (AI) in the cloud, ensuring efficiency and flexibility.
The Akta platform, enhanced with Singular.live's graphics engine, offers significant cost savings compared to a traditional on-premises broadcast workflow. This is achieved by streamlining media workflows from ingest to playback and monetization, reducing the need for expensive on-premises hardware.
Singular.live, a leading provider of cloud-based graphics solutions, offers the ability to produce graphics for any live workflow in the cloud for both traditional linear broadcast and digital productions. With this collaboration, Singular's dynamic graphics are now accessible for live linear or FAST channels on any screen through Akta's FLEX offerings.
Akta's video SaaS platform, renowned for its scalability, has delivered some of the largest live sports events in history. With the integration of Singular.live's graphics engine, it promises to deliver premium video channels or live linear events with stunning, crisp graphics, all with ultra-low latency.
The CEO of Akta, Alper Turgut, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating that it delivers next-generation workflows requiring adaptive and data-driven interactive overlays. Similarly, Steven Heimbold, CEO of Singular.live, expressed his enthusiasm about the compatibility of the two solutions.
This collaboration expands the combined capabilities of both Akta and Singular.live to a global roster of sports and entertainment clients. FLEX channels can be distributed as both Free Ad-Supported Television (FAST) channels and traditional broadcast channels, providing flexible distribution options for content creators.
The AI used in this collaboration generates dynamic metadata for the channels, ensuring a seamless and intelligent broadcast experience. This new process saves 80% of the cost compared to a traditional on-prem broadcast workflow, making it an attractive solution for broadcasters and content creators alike.
