Zero raw footage uploaded. Your archive never moves.
Live on FAST TV worldwide in two weeks.
Stop paying cloud egress fees on footage you already own.With Kaster, your raw media never leaves your own facility. Deploy AI-powered search and automated playout in days, then publish straight to the world's leading smart TV platforms — turning a dormant archive into revenue around the clock.
Kaster (product codename Media Nexus) is a hybrid-cloud media asset management (MAM) and FAST TV monetization platform, built by Taiwan's Point Media (point.tv). Your master tapes stay at 0% uploaded — only non-sensitive derivatives like audio summaries, keyframes, and semantic embeddings ever leave the building for analysis. That's enough to power instant natural-language search across your archive, and to launch an ad-monetized FAST TV channel in as little as two weeks.
Three steps from dormant archive to cash flow
No more editors scrubbing through master tapes at midnight looking for one shot. Kaster's VLM-powered visual understanding turns a simple description — "Taipei 101 at dusk," "interviewee in a red jacket" — into the exact frame, instantly.
Editors no longer transcribe footage by hand until they burn out. On-prem Whisper AI speech recognition auto-generates accurate transcripts and captions, so rough cuts stop eating into overnight hours.
An on-prem Playout engine pushes directly to Samsung TV Plus, LG Channels, and other top-tier platforms. Paired with automated SSAI ad insertion, you earn global ad revenue on autopilot — no extra headcount required.
Your video stays on-prem — only derivatives ever reach the cloud
You probably haven't seen a Kaster client list yet — we're still onboarding our first wave of media and government clients. Instead of showing you logos, we'd rather show you the architecture and let you judge for yourself: Frequency, Wurl, and Amagi all require you to move your archive to the cloud. Traditional MAM systems (Dalet, iconik) support on-prem deployment but were never designed for a lean, FAST-TV-ready cloud workflow. Every step of how Kaster's data actually moves is documented in the spec table below — see for yourself.
Edge Agent samples on-site
Deploys via Docker on your existing NAS or a low-spec x86 machine — no need to migrate or re-encode your entire archive.
Only derivatives travel — never the source video
Just audio summaries, keyframe thumbnails, and semantic embeddings are encrypted and uploaded. The original video files stay in your facility the entire time.
AI analysis in the cloud
VLM visual understanding, Whisper transcription, and vector indexing run here — then the temporary derivatives are automatically deleted once analysis completes.

Schedule once, publish to every major FAST platform
An on-prem Playout engine pushes directly to third-party channels, putting you live on leading smart TV platforms worldwide within two weeks — and local playback keeps running even if your connection drops.
