Turn your library into a Pluto TV or Tubi-style FAST channel - free, ad-supported, and running around the clock on Roku, Samsung TV Plus, LG Channels and your own branded apps, with the EPG, scheduling and ad insertion built in.
A FAST channel is a free, ad-supported streaming TV channel that plays a 24/7 linear schedule - like a broadcast channel, delivered over the internet and funded entirely by advertising, the model behind free services like Pluto TV and Tubi.
FAST advertising is one of the fastest-growing segments in all of streaming, projected to keep expanding at double-digit rates through the decade.
One 24/7 stream can be distributed to Roku, Samsung TV Plus, LG Channels and other connected-TV guides - plus your own branded apps.
Viewers press play - no account, no paywall. That low friction is exactly why FAST reaches audiences a subscription service cannot.
Running a linear channel used to mean playout servers, an EPG feed and an ad-ops team. OTTEngine gives you all of it, no code: schedule your library into a 24/7 loop, publish a compliant EPG, and monetize every break with server-side ads.
A rough model of monthly ad revenue at three stages of growth. Revenue scales with viewers, watch time, ad load, fill rate and CPM.
| Stage | Monthly viewers | Avg watch | Ad min / hr | Fill x CPM | Est. ad revenue / mo |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Getting started | 10,000 | 2 hrs | 6 min | 60% x $12 | ~$1,700 |
| Growing | 50,000 | 3 hrs | 8 min | 70% x $15 | ~$25,000 |
| Established | 100,000 | 4 hrs | 10 min | 80% x $18 | ~$115,000 |
