Company profile
researched Aug 2026Amagi operates a cloud platform for the video supply chain, serving organizations that create, distribute and monetize video content. Its offering, marketed as the Amagi NOW platform, spans production (remote production, live clipping), preparation (media management, scheduling, origination), distribution (linear, VOD, FAST and social) and monetization (dynamic ad insertion and analytics). An underlying layer described as Amagi Intelligence provides agentic automation intended to execute media operations tasks such as schedule creation, artwork generation and monetization workflows.
