Subscription streaming services
Subscription services publish new titles every week and sell access through tiered plans. Content teams need each title reviewed before launch, playback teams need sessions counted only for entitled subscribers, and finance needs the numbers to agree with payment settlements. One approved definition of minutes watched keeps the content, product and finance teams reading the same figure.
How Video Streaming Platform is set up for you
Tiered plans
Offer each title under a plan with its effective period, and reject playback outside the subscriber's entitlement.
Launch review
Every new episode is processed and reviewed against its rights, captions and rendition outcome before publication.
Settlement matching
Reconcile provider settlements against expected amounts and assign each difference to an owner.

One approved definition of minutes watched keeps the content, product and finance teams reading the same figure.
Pilot one organization and one month of new releases. Load the plans, the titles due to launch and the reviewers. Capture daily playback snapshots, approve a small set of metrics and reconcile the month's settlement. Compare published titles, watched minutes and settled amounts with your existing reports before adding more regions.
