Comprehensive services
The video content distribution services cater to virtually every video use case imaginable. As one of the world’s largest suppliers in this field, Kaltura supports numerous renowned organisations, media companies and educational institutions.
Central management
Companies can centrally manage their video content via the Kaltura Management Console, and simultaneously access it from different departments in the company via defined access authorisations.
High degree of compatibility
Thanks to specially developed interfaces (APIs), videos can be transmitted efficiently and securely to different end devices and operating systems. Automatic transcoding enables stutter-free streaming and fast uploads.
Customisable
With the Kaltura video player, publishing video content is lightning fast. Additional features such as comments, subtitles and social media sharing can be used through extended functions. Editing tools make editing videos simple, without the need for additional software.
Exclusive special functions
Videos can be searched for keywords using automatically generated subtitles. A chat function enables interaction between viewers and the provider, as well as with other users. Interactive videos can be used, for example, to conduct online courses such as tests or quizzes.
