When video workflows operate like a well-oiled machine, teams can stop worrying about security and focus on producing better content, faster and more efficiently. MediaSilo is a video management platform for distributed media production teams that need to manage, share and approve content safely and easily. The Boston, MA-based company works with media companies, advertising agencies and content creators to provide lightweight SaaS software that sits in the middle of video lifecycles, working with existing tools and workflows to keep teams connected, assets secure and stories beautifully and seamlessly presented. With 550+ customers, 100k+ monthly users and 10M+ assets managed, MediaSilo continues to innovate and provide solutions that span media, entertainment and enterprise video, with a focus on security. Most recently, MediaSilo launched SafeStream, an on-demand watermarking technology that acts as a visual deterrant to piracy. Each watermarked video is created in real-time and is personalized to the person requesting or viewing the asset. Because the customized watermark is inserted in near real-time (less than a 20-second delay) – even for a 90-minute video – the speed and cost-effectiveness of SafeStream is unheard of the industry, and is not interruptive to the viewing experience. The content owner remains in complete control of where and how the watermark appears on the video. It can be incorporated directly into workflows so it can be easily used to protect dailies and rough cuts in addition to finished content.
