"Ingestion, transcoding, metadata management, playback, analytics and monetization are all part of Brightcove s core feature set. The company offers these capabilities both as part of the Video Cloud platform and as stand-alone solutions. The company also places a key focus on building a vibrant third-party ecosystem, helping Brightcove to easily integrate partner solutions with customers legacy systems.

Brightcove has cultivated a rich third-party partner ecosystem, with close to 175 partners that endow it with the flexibility to integrate into a host of software and solutions used by enterprises and media companies. For instance, its cloud-centric Dynamic Ingest employs a combination of Zencoder, Amazon S3, and other technologies to transcode and store video assets. The company also enables customers to provide personalized content recommendations and an improved viewing experience by partnering with companies such as Outbrain, Taboola, Recosense, and IRIS.TV.
The Brightcove brand is reputed and recognized around the world among media companies, publishers, marketers, and other content owners.
