The online video industry is abuzz with major production houses, broadcasters, TV networks, Cable Companies and creatives shifting to online video to showcase and monetize their work. The lure of being able to watch TV anywhere, anytime and with any device has caught the fancy of the audiences and the industry alike.

However, steep startup costs can cut short the ‘stream-dream’, with Muvi Studio onboard, a challenge like this can be dealt with more realistically or as Muvi defines it, ‘Zero CapEx VoD Platform’. When the startup budget becomes more realistic, it allows businesses to invest more in content and target larger audiences with precision. 

“Most online video startups fail due to inability of investing in the right kind of content and lack of proper monetization strategy. It is therefore wise to keep startup costs low and choose the right mix of revenue models suited for their content instead of following third party streamers. Going forward, Muvi Studio looks to embolden and empower such players who, despite budget constraints, aspire to be the next Netflix or Hulu,” says Viraj Mehta – Head International Business at Muvi.
