StreamZilla
StreamZilla Broadcasters
Video for broadcasters, under European control
Your programmes stay on air. Your viewers stay yours.
Broadcasters, and public broadcasters above all, carry a responsibility that goes beyond reach: independent, reliable information for everyone, and for regional broadcasters often an official role in emergencies. That task cannot depend on a video platform that someone outside Europe can switch off.
StreamZilla is built and run in Europe by Jet-Stream, which has been streaming for broadcasters and media companies since 1994 and has supported live streaming since 2003. Our founder served on the supervisory board of a regional public broadcaster, so we know what is at stake from the inside. Our own infrastructure has capacity for millions of videos and millions of viewers, and a European CDN with a global network delivers them fast worldwide, also to viewers outside the EU.
Free during the beta. For organisations. Nothing to pay.
No kill switch
No American owner, cloud or technology in the chain that can be ordered to cut you off.
Viewer data stays home
No trackers, no foreign access to who watches what. Statistics are not shared with any third party.
Accessible to all
Automatic subtitles, transcripts and translations, and a player built to WCAG 2.2 AA.
What is at stake for broadcasters
- Sudden death. A non-European provider can be forced to cut off a service overnight, through sanctions, export rules or a policy change elsewhere. Your programmes and archive go dark with it.
- Your core task. For an emergency broadcaster, video that does not play during a crisis is a failure of a public duty, not an outage.
- Personal data. Viewing behaviour is personal data. On a platform under foreign law, it can be demanded by foreign authorities, outside European legal procedures.
- Fines and reputation. A data breach can lead to a fine, and an independent broadcaster depending on a foreign platform makes headlines of its own.
European rules point the same way: the GDPR for viewer data, the European Accessibility Act for access to audiovisual media services, and the European Media Freedom Act for the independence of public service media.
Live and on demand
StreamZilla handles video on demand today. For live streaming, Jet-Stream already supports broadcasters, and once live is part of StreamZilla you can switch to one platform. See live streaming.
Frequently asked questions
Can StreamZilla run on our own infrastructure?
Yes. Broadcasters can license StreamZilla and run it in their own data centre. See self-hosted video platform.
What happens to our archive if we leave?
