OnAir OS compared
Most channels pay four companies: a playout tool, a streaming platform, an AI video tool and a website. OnAir OS is one system for all of it. Here is how it compares - honestly, including where the others are stronger.

Where OnAir OS is different
- All five steps in one chain: a news text becomes a video, goes on air, streams live and lands in the library by itself.
- Your own server and your own website: the viewers, the numbers and the archive stay with you.
- Made for many languages, right-to-left included - in every product.
- Proven every day: Jammu Kashmir TV runs on it 24/7.
Where others are stronger
- Native apps for smart TVs and app stores.
- Subscriptions and pay-per-view out of the box.
- Public price lists - OnAir OS gives a price per channel on request.
- Very large channels with many feeds - the big broadcast vendors are built for that.
