Ateliere Creative Technologies, a leading GenAI media software solutions company, has acquired Agile Live, a cloud-based live TV production platform from Agile Content, a TV platform operations and technology company.
Agile Live offers a significant reduction in production costs by up to 70% by leveraging next-generation software architecture and cloud technology, moving away from traditional proprietary and expensive hardware solutions to more scalable and flexible IP-based systems.
Enhancing Broadcasters’ Capabilities
Dan Goman, CEO and founder of Ateliere Creative Technologies, emphasized the strategic benefits of Agile Live in enhancing broadcasters’ capacities and streamlining live content production. He highlighted that this acquisition aligns with Ateliere’s commitment to innovation and aims to revolutionize the live production content industry by delivering enhanced real-time content to consumers.
Successful Implementation by Top Broadcasters
Agile Live is already in use by top broadcasters, including Sveriges Television (SVT) in Sweden. SVT has utilized this technology for major sports events, which has significantly reduced on-site equipment needs, streamlined workflows, and lowered overall production costs. Dennis Buhr, Head of Production Development at SVT, mentioned their goal to reduce the technical and operational costs per produced hour to half or less and expressed excitement about collaborating with Ateliere to enhance the system’s reach and capabilities.
Strengthening Global Reach
