Frequently Asked Questions

All other devices - including streaming sticks - are thick-client devices that require an operating system that supports application management. This approach often delivers a slow and poor user experience that tends to get worse as the device ages and apps are enhanced. Senza uses on-demand cloud compute to render the user experience in the cloud and stream it to the device, unlocking new user experience possibilities that improve over time and enabling unmatched web-like agility. Senza aims to reduce the hardware device to the bare minimum of essential functions, making sure it can stay in the field a lot longer without obsolescence. On the business side, unlike other platforms, there are no revenue share fees for content providers and streaming services on the Senza platform, we don't ask for any share of ad or subscription revenues from AVOD/FAST/SVOD services.

Senza uses hardware components that cost around $6 (note that costs vary depending on the region and volume). Senza provides businesses with a pay-as-you-go SaaS pricing model where you pay for what you use. There are no ad or subscription revenue shares and no additional fees for streaming video content.

Senza helps businesses reach new markets and audiences by reducing acquisition costs (the one-off cost of the Cloud Connector device) and operational costs. These combine to lower overall TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) making lower ARPU and price sensitive markets financially viable.

Senza uses common web technologies and a cloud-hosted browser to deliver any kind of experience and content to the screen. This means that making changes is as simple as updating a Web page, avoiding all of the app certification and updates common with other platforms. This enables businesses to make changes to their experience and content in a matter of seconds, increasing their agility and changing their operational approach.
