Migrate from Builder ai to Muvi

As Builder.ai has declared insolvency, customers are now seeking suitable alternatives to run their businesses. If you’ve been using Builder.ai to set up your video streaming platform but feel limited in scalability, monetization, or end-to-end control, it may be time to consider a better alternative. Muvi offers a robust, fully managed, and feature-rich OTT platform that not only eliminates technical complexities but also empowers you to launch, manage, and scale your streaming business effortlessly.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through why you should migrate from Builder.ai to Muvi for content owners, broadcasters, and enterprises seeking more control, scalability, and monetization options.

What Builder.ai Offers

Builder.ai was an AI powered app builder that proclaimed to take care of the entire app development process from idea, to prototype, to build. The platform allowed users to build custom apps without deep programming knowledge. It offered a generalized app development service for businesses of various types—including eCommerce, service delivery, and video streaming.

When it comes to streaming, Builder.ai enabled you to:

  • Create custom Android and iOS apps

  • Include basic content management features

  • Integrate basic payment gateways

  • Add UI customization options

  • Offer simple user authentication and user management features

Builder.ai provided a decent starting point for a streaming solution, especially for businesses just exploring OTT. However, as your streaming business scales, you may find it lacking in key areas.

Where Builder.ai Falls Short

As your platform grows, the need for industry-specific features becomes unavoidable. Builder.ai, while customizable, is not purpose-built for video streaming and misses out on key functionalities critical to OTT success.

Here’s what Builder.ai lacks:

    • Built-in DRM & Studio-Grade Content Protection

    • End-to-End Platform Infrastructure (CDN, Cloud Hosting, etc.)

    • Multiple Monetization Models (SVOD, AVOD, TVOD, Freemium)

    • Multi-Screen Native Apps (Smart TVs, Gaming Consoles, Roku, etc.)

    • Integrated Live Streaming & Live Chat Support

    •  AI-Based Content Recommendations (like Muvi’s Alie)

    • Automated Subtitles & Multilingual Support

    • Analytics & Viewer Insights Tailored for Video Consumption
    • Limited Tech Stack options
  • Budget Constraints

If you’re serious about growing your streaming business, having a platform purpose-built for video streaming is a must. This is where Muvi leads the game.
