About OTT White-label Solution
Fully white-label OTT platform with custom encoder, Netflix-style UI, TV apps
Before You Read – Full Transparency I built this as a solo developer and successfully landed 2 clients ($10K–$25K deals). But here's the reality: To scale this properly, you need: 1–2 devs to finish the last 5% and handle customizations Sales/marketing effort (or existing agency connections) If you have both: This is a goldmine. You're buying 18+ months of dev work for $40K and can start reselling immediately. If you're solo like me: You can do it, but expect to wear both dev + sale (which is why I'm selling).

Rare Tech Combo Most competitors don't include TV apps or a custom encoder White-label ready: change logo/colors in Next.js and React Native 4. High Resale Value Rebuild cost: $90K+ (if hiring a dev team) Ideal for reselling to fitness, education, media, or corporate training brands Charge $700–$3K/month for hosted white-label deployments What's Left to Finish? (3–5 Weeks) DRM integration (Widevine for premium content protection) In-app purchase updates (iOS/Android subscription handling) CMS polish (minor UI improvements/Features) Scaling optimizations (for larger audiences) How to Take It Further: 1: Resell as SaaS Charge $700–$3K/month per white-label deployment Target niches: fitness, education, events, corporate training, films vod 2: Sell Encoder Separately Split the Go encoder into a standalone product 3: Scale with a Team Hire 1–2 devs to finish DRM, polish CMS, handle support Market to agencies (they resell to their clients) Why I'm Selling I've validated the product (2 paying clients, zero churn) but need to focus on other projects. This needs a small team (2–3 devs) and active marketing to reach its full potential. Perfect for: Agencies wanting a white-label OTT product to resell SaaS founders entering the streaming space Developers who want a 95% done product to finish and scale Competitors & Market Muvi, Uscreen, Dacast charge $200–$7K/month (SaaS model) This platform: One-time purchase, you own it forever Market size: Massive (fitness, education, media, corporate training)
