AstraFactory
Transforms source media into distribution-ready packages with ingest control, transcode workflows, audio extraction, ABR ladders, HLS packaging and recoverable job execution.
What it solves
Modern media operations are fragmented across ingest, processing, metadata, scheduling, playout, distribution and operational tools. This product reduces that fragmentation by giving one stage of the workflow a clear, automation-ready operating layer.
How it fits
AstraFactory connects upstream content preparation with downstream streaming and distribution. It can contribute data and readiness signals to Trendest Studio, Trendest TV and the wider Astra ecosystem.
