Solutions

One platform. Four very different businesses.

A broadcaster, a cable operator, a film library and a university all need streaming — but they sell it in completely different ways. Tarang is configured, not rewritten, for each.

Broadcasters

Take your channels direct to viewers

You already produce the content and run the playout. What you need is a direct-to-consumer front end that doesn't require rebuilding the operation behind it.

Linear channels with EPG, alongside an on-demand archive
Catch-up and highlights published from the same library
Advertising carried into the stream — pre-roll, mid-roll and banners
Subscription or free-to-air with ads, per channel
Viewership reporting that stands up to an advertiser conversation

Linear channels and on-demand archive reaching viewer apps

Cable & ISP operators

An app for the subscribers you already have

Your customers expect to watch on a phone. Tarang gives you that app under your own brand — and lets you sell beyond the streets your cable runs down.

Your existing channel line-up, delivered to phone, web and TV
Operator and distributor tier — activate subscribers through your field network
Subscription inventory allocated to each operator, with commission tracking
Device limits that stop one account serving a whole building
Reach customers outside your physical footprint for the first time

Content owners

Turn a library into a business

Licensing your catalogue to someone else's platform is one option. Running your own is the one where you keep the subscriber relationship and the data.

Films and multi-season series with full metadata and artwork
Subscription, pay-per-view or ad-supported — per title
Premieres and event releases with scheduled availability
Your own audience data instead of a quarterly royalty statement
Regional and language targeting for a diaspora audience

Enterprise & education

Private video, delivered securely

Not every streaming service sells subscriptions. Some just need the right people, and only the right people, to see the video.

Closed catalogues visible only to authorised accounts
Courses and series structured the same way as seasons and episodes
Device limits and token-based playback to stop sharing
Viewing records showing who watched what, and how much of it
On-premise deployment where data cannot leave the building

Common questions

Before you ask us

How long does a launch actually take?

Weeks rather than months for a standard configuration — branding, catalogue load, pricing and app publication. The variables are usually content readiness and app store review, not the platform.

Do we have to use your infrastructure?

No. Tarang runs as managed cloud or on-premise in your own data centre or cloud account, and works with your existing CDN and streaming origin.

Can we run more than one brand?

Yes. Tarang is multi-tenant — several independent branded services from one deployment, each with its own catalogue, pricing, branding and admin users.

Who owns the subscriber data?

You do. It lives in your deployment and is exportable at any time.

Can we migrate from an existing platform?

Usually. Catalogue and subscriber data can be imported in bulk via the APIs. Tell us what you are on today and we will be straight with you about the effort involved.

What does it cost?

It depends on deployment model, scale and which modules you need. We quote against a real requirement rather than publishing a number that would be wrong for most people.
