thePlatform began as a question in the minds of our founders: How could large volumes of broadband media be handled in a simpler and smarter way?
Digital media didn’t play as big a role in most consumers’ online lives back in 2000, but these guys saw that it wouldn’t be long before demand drove digital media business to search for ways to keep up with consumption. A few years later, thePlatform is helping major digital media companies manage and publish their video and audio, and reach millions of viewers.
Over time, we’ve continued to add technologies and services that help our clients easily get their online content to their customers. Major extensions to our solutions include the Remote Media Processor, which remotely protects, transcodes, and move files; the launch of mpsConnect, a service that makes it easy for content providers to syndicate their media to distribution outlets; and mpsPresent, a suite of media player development tools.
