Mumbai: Flixbox Solutions, a new technology company, from Assam, India has announced its platform Skara that slashes the cost and time required to launch a streaming service by 100x. This platform looks to empower entrepreneurs, creators, and businesses of all sizes to enter the booming video streaming industry.
India’s OTT market is experiencing explosive growth and is expected to reach 108.4 million users by 2027. However, launching a streaming service remains a hurdle for many due to its high infrastructure costs, technical complexity and slow time-to-market challenge.
Skara the company said aims to revolutionise the process of building and launching streaming services by reducing the costs by up to 100x compared to traditional methods. With its interface and no-code technology, Skara looks to eliminate the need for complex coding while enabling its users to launch their streaming service in minutes instead of months or years.
“The current landscape for launching streaming services is riddled with complexity and high costs. Our mission is to democratise the video streaming industry by providing a user-friendly and affordable solution that removes the traditional barriers to entry”, said Ankita Saikia, co-founder Flixbox Solutions.
According to Skara, many video creators on social platforms have to compromise on the content they put out to ensure they can monetise those videos. And even when they do that, they only get paid a portion of the earnings based on the platforms’ monetisation policies. With Skara, users get paid directly by their subscribers while retaining full control and ownership of their content and subscriber data, scaling their streaming service effortlessly as their audience grows.
Currently in beta phase, Skara is available to a limited group of users only. Interested video creators and businesses can join the waitlist to enroll for the beta version and contribute to its development by providing feedback while availing perks.
