About
Keep Media Moving — MediaLab is a SaaS platform for distribution, viewing and storage of media assets, used by broadcasters, media producers, sports organizations and international brands. Think drone footage from a live event, raw camera files from a TV production, or source files well over 100GB, all moving through systems that need to handle them reliably. Every day, content viewed by millions of people moves through our systems, so reliability is a core requirement.
