About AirKast
Market Overview
The Internet continues to transform how people work, live, communicate, socialize and be entertained. Rich media on the Internet, including graphics, audio and video, is now integral to the overall Internet experience. Connected CE (consumer electronics) and mobile devices have become ubiquitous and technological advancements in these devices have empowered consumers to connect with more Internet businesses and websites where "content is king." The Internet is going through a natural extension and integration with connected CE and mobile devices where the lines are merging between Internet access commonly coming from connected PCs, connected CEs as well as mobile devices.
Market Opportunity
Multimedia-rich content on the Internet, including graphics, audio and video, is now an integral part of the overall online experience. Mobile and connected consumer electronic (CE) devices have become ubiquitous and their technological advancements empower consumers to connect more often with businesses.
Today, the Internet is going through a natural evolution: Internet access that was once only available from PCs is now also commonplace on mobile and connected CE devices. Companies that create multimedia-rich content want to quickly leverage and monetize their entertainment and content into the new mobile and connected CE distribution channels, but provisioning content to web and mobile, and now connected CE as well, is not a straightforward proposition.
Web content is relatively static, yet mobile phone and connected CE users expect a rich media experience. Web content can be managed using any number of content management systems, but what about mobile and connected CE content? Then, there is the growing number of unique devices -- how do you develop a solution for each of these devices?
Company
AirKast stands out as the leading digital content and advertising technology company that provides a comprehensive end-to-end "app-vertising" technology ecosystem so advertisers and brands can communicate their messages in a superior ad format, via a premium ad network, to quality consumers via highly interactive/sticky mobile and connected CE applications.
The company has created a hosted digital content delivery platform, AirBridge, allowing media companies, such as radio and television broadcasters, and leading content publishers to distribute multimedia-rich content to mobile and connected CE devices via highly interactive applications, allowing them to showcase and create new revenue streams for their content. It also lets advertisers and brands transition from traditional mobile texting and static banner ads to marketing messaging comprised of rich media, video and interactive graphics.
Why AirKast?
AirKast is the only company to bring true enterprise-class digital media distribution applications to the broadcasting and publishing industries. From the beginning, AirKast products and solutions were designed for flexibility, scalability and high availability. Furthermore, they were also developed for ease of configuration and ongoing maintenance.
Based on patent-pending technology, AirBridge was built from the ground up using a multi-tiered service-oriented architecture (SOA). Why SOA? The reality in enterprises is that infrastructure is heterogeneous. And, every enterprise has existing systems to run their business, so "rip and replace" is not practical, nor responsible. Enterprises must respond to business changes with agility by leveraging existing investments. SOA by nature allows enterprises to bridge the old with the new.
Our management team has a combined 80 years of experience bringing enterprise-class business applications to the market. We understand the relationship between infrastructure and enterprise applications, and how to take different types of content from distributed, heterogeneous system, bring it together and deliver it in an interesting and interactive way for the user.
