IBM Video Streaming is a cloud video platform for hosting, transcoding, and delivering live broadcasts and on-demand video.

The platform includes HD transcoding, video storage, channel branding, passwords and registration gates, video embed control, API access, a live monitoring console, and ticket and chat support. Automated speech to text and analytics are available, and Watson Live Captioning is included in the Custom plan.
IBM Video Streaming is packaged as a SaaS service with a 30-day free trial offering the full feature set of the Silver, Gold, and Platinum plans, each with a single administrator and viewer seat. Paid plans scale by viewer hours, number of channels, and storage, with a Custom option for more complex needs.
