Platform Services

A complete cloud broadcast chain

The platform behind 90,000+ live broadcasts also moves, converts, captions, distributes and monitors feeds for the world's leading sports properties, with or without commentary on top.

One platform from venue to viewer

Contribution transport, cloud mixing, master control, distribution, captioning and monitoring run on the same infrastructure, managed from the same dashboard and the same API, so adding a capability never means adding a vendor.

Capabilities

Everything the platform can do for you

Each of these runs standalone or alongside your commentary production, on the same infrastructure and the same dashboard.

VOD delivery

Recording and retention

SIP and telephony

Why Spalk

Why teams consolidate on Spalk

Every capability shares one control plane, one entitlement model and one bill, with a documented developer API across events, teams, inputs and outputs.

Fewer vendors, fewer seams

Transport, production, captions and distribution hand off inside one platform instead of across contracts.

Pay for what you use

Capabilities are switched on per organisation as entitlements when you need them, with no re-platforming and no new contract cycle.

Proven at scale

The same infrastructure has delivered 90,000+ live broadcasts in 52 languages across 30+ sports.

Built to integrate

A public, versioned developer API fits Spalk into the workflow you already run.
