TAIPEI,
TAIWAN – Media OutReach -
24 June 2021 – KKStream, a
leading provider of B2B video streaming solutions, today unveiled its
BlendVision modular streaming platform with three software solutions. They
include KALEIDO, a one-stop streaming platform; MOMENT, a high-quality live
streaming service; and LOOM, an AI-powered video encoding solution.
BlendVision’s Streaming-as-a-Service model is built on KKStream’s extensive
experience helping global companies establish streaming applications. Designed
to be quick and easy to set up, the new services empower businesses of any
scale to deliver world-class videos to their audience in no time.
The Asia-Pacific OTT media streaming
market is growing fast: it is expected to be worth nearly US$88.3 billion by
2025, according to Statista. Companies across a wide range of industries are
adopting streaming and online video as part of their digital transformation
efforts. For those with no prior experience, it can be difficult to know where
to begin. BlendVision aims to demystify the process and offer a flexible,
ready-to-run service that is adaptable to the needs of individual businesses,
from startups and SMEs to large enterprises. “Through the
Streaming-as-a-service business model, our BlendVision solution enables
companies to build their own video platform in an instant and shorten their
time to market,” said Eric Tsai, President of KKStream. “We hope to make
streaming a standard business tool that is accessible to everyone.”
BlendVision’s
KALEDIO, MOMENT, and LOOM positioned to advance the streaming market
KKStream’s BlendVision video streaming
service can help companies solve their streaming challenges. The modular
Steaming-as-a-Service model is supplemented with professional consulting
service to allow customers create a second growth curve by leveraging the
following three products:
- KALEIDO is a tool for
companies of any scale to build their own streaming platform. Featuring AI
video encoding, it enables effortless migration of content to cloud-based OTT
platforms and cross device viewing via different applications. It also
integrates monetization and recommendation systems. - MOMENT makes it
possible for viewers around the world to watch and participate in live
performances, competitions and other events through premium quality,
low-latency streaming technology across various platforms. - LOOM uses patented
per-title-encoding (PTE) technology to encode videos in the most efficient
manner as AI technology analyzes each frame, resulting in high quality videos
at the smallest file sizes. This saves bandwidth and storage to lower the
operational cost of streaming platforms.
In addition, KKStream highly values
digital copyright protection. All BlendVision products are equipped with
complete DRM protection. The intellectual property of all content creators can
be fully protected through features such as geo-lock, playback device
limitations, and content encryption.
BlendVision trusted
by key customers in Taiwan and Japan for their streaming solutions
BlendVision has helped customers
across diverse industries in APAC, spanning telecoms, media, online events and
ticketing, online education, and home fitness. It helped cut bandwidth usage
and operation cost for one of Taiwan’s top telecom operator’s own OTT video
service and enabled Foxconn Group to present an online celebration in 4K

“TELASA” with 4K VOD content, AI recommendation, and event live streaming, in
conjunction with TV Asahi. The service amassed over 100 thousand subscribers at
