1. Executive Overview
Founded in 2008, Amagi is a B2B media SaaS provider specializing in cloud-based video streaming and broadcast technology. The company enables media firms to transition from legacy, on-premise systems to scalable, internet-driven delivery models, positioning itself at the core of the FAST and CTV ecosystems. As of September 2025, Amagi serves over 400 content providers, 350+ distributors, and 75+ advertisers across more than 40 countries, supporting over 45% of the top 50 global media companies. It has also powered major global events such as the Paris Olympics and the Oscars.
Amagi differentiates itself through its integrated “glass-to-glass” platform, which combines content preparation, global distribution, and automated ad monetization into a unified ecosystem. This end-to-end approach eliminates reliance on fragmented legacy solutions and creates strong network effects. As more content owners and distributors join the platform, it attracts higher programmatic ad demand, leading to improved monetization and strong client stickiness, resulting in high switching costs for enterprise
2. Business Model and Revenue Streams
Amagi generates highly recurring revenues by embedding its software deeply into the critical broadcast workflows of media enterprises.
- Revenue by Geography: The business is heavily concentrated in high-value, digitally mature markets. The America Region contributed 73.23% (₹5,161.06 million) of total revenue in H1 FY26, followed by Europe (including UK) at 17.27% (₹1,217.20 million).
- Pricing Strategy & Contract Models: Amagi utilizes a hybrid monetization strategy tailored to SaaS dynamics. Cloud Modernization utilizes fixed monthly fees per managed channel or usage-based pricing for live events. Streaming Unification charges SaaS access fees based on software tiers, processing volumes, and scheduler user-seats. Monetization & Marketplace leverages highly lucrative revenue-share and inventory-share models, allowing Amagi to clip the ticket on ad fill-rates and programmatic monetization, as well as charging tiered CPM fees for Server-Side Ad Insertion (SSAI).
- Client Concentration & Stickiness: Customer dependency is well-managed and derisking. The Top 10 Clients contributed 34% of total revenue in FY25 (down from 38% in FY23). The company exhibits exceptional client lock-in, boasting a Net Revenue Retention (NRR) rate of 126.81% in H1 FY26, and zero customer churn among its top ten accounts over the last three fiscal years.
- Industry-Specific Operating Metrics: Amagi’s platform scale is immense. The company delivered 8,349 distinct channel feeds to distribution partners and processed over 728,907 hours of content by the end of H1 FY26. Critically, it monetized 18.23 billion ad impressions in just six months (up from 26.12 billion in the full FY25 year).

3. Products and Service Portfolio
Amagi organizes its enterprise offerings into three high-synergy divisions designed to capture a client from early cloud migration all the way through to advanced programmatic ad-monetization.
- Streaming Unification (Core Revenue Driver - 52.86% of H1 FY26 Revenue): The flagship operations hub. Key tools include Amagi NOW (the centralized unified media workflow UI), Amagi PLANNER (AI-automated content scheduling via drag-and-drop), and Amagi ON DEMAND (VOD processing and platform compliance packaging).
- Monetization and Marketplace (High Growth Segment - 25.28% of H1 FY26 Revenue): Drives shared ad revenues. Built around Amagi THUNDERSTORM, a proprietary dynamic Server-Side Ad Insertion (SSAI) tech featuring "Zero-Slate" algorithms that eliminate dead air during ad breaks. This division also houses Amagi ADS PLUS (a premium CTV ad marketplace) and Amagi CONNECT (a B2B content syndication exchange).
- Cloud Modernization (Infrastructure Foundation - 21.86% of H1 FY26 Revenue): Enables legacy broadcasters to ditch physical hardware. Driven by Amagi CLOUDPORT (software-defined live broadcast playout), Amagi STUDIO (cloud-based live production suite), and Amagi CLIP (real-time social media clipping/publishing).
