FAST moves fast: channels launch and re-cut constantly, the same title runs across dozens of channels at once, and viewers find content only through the guide and the rails, with no channel number to fall back on. Thin, duplicated, slow metadata is the thing that holds a FAST business back.
Media Press gives you broad, consistent, de-duplicated metadata that keeps pace with your line-up and makes every channel findable and monetisable, whether you operate channels or aggregate hundreds of them.
The products for your service
What this means for your service
You keep up with FAST's churn without rebuilding by hand.
New channels and re-cut loops are absorbed into the metadata automatically, so your guide is current even as the line-up changes week to week.
The same title across fifty channels is one title.
Shared permanent identifiers de-duplicate content across your whole line-up, so aggregating at scale does not bury you in mismatched entries for the same film.
Findable content is watched content — and monetisable content.
Because FAST is ad-funded, accurate titles, genres, mood tags and artwork feed the discovery and ad-placement systems your revenue depends on, not just the guide.
A new channel appears complete from day one.
Even when a provider supplies almost nothing, the master record fills in cast, genre, descriptions and images, so a freshly launched channel presents fully and findably.
Common questions
Which FAST platforms do you cover?
Coverage spans the major FAST platforms, including Pluto TV, Samsung TV Plus and Roku, among others, delivered as aggregate platform and channel coverage.
How do you handle the same title appearing across many channels?
Every title carries a permanent Content ID, so the same film or episode running across dozens of channels resolves to one shared record — while each airing keeps its own slot data. This de-duplication is essential when you aggregate at scale.
Can you keep up with how often FAST channels change?
Yes. New and re-programmed channels are absorbed continuously, so your metadata reflects the current line-up without manual rebuilding each time a loop is re-cut.
How does the metadata help with advertising and discovery?
Accurate classification — genres, themes, mood, ratings — plus clean titles and artwork are the inputs that search, recommendation rails and ad-placement systems use. Better metadata means content surfaces to the right viewer and ads are placed appropriately.
