Resources · Why Reelstack

One stack. One call.

Three ways to get an OTT service, side by side.

You can assemble several vendors, build in-house, or run on one complete stack. Each has its reasons; the table below compares them.

Three routes.

Eight questions that decide the choice, answered for each route.

	Reelstack	Assembling vendors	Building in-house
Who you deal with	One vendor for CMS, admin, apps and backend.	A supplier per layer, each with its own contract.	Your own team, plus whoever you hire.
Integration work	None between layers: they ship together.	Yours to plan, run and maintain.	All of it, from the start.
On matchday	One team that runs every layer.	Several support desks and a debate over whose system it is.	Your engineers, on call.
Brand on the apps	Yours, on web, mobile and TV.	Depends on each supplier.	Yours.
Sports rights	Geo-blocking, rights windows, blackouts and PPV as standard.	Depends on which suppliers you pick.	Yours to design and build.
Control over the code	Reelstack's. You configure your service; the platform underneath is ours.	Split between suppliers, each owning its part.	Entirely yours.
Track record	Early: no client references yet. Ask us anything in the demo.	Established suppliers with references you can call.	Your own team's experience.
Roadmap	One roadmap across the whole stack.	A roadmap per supplier.	Yours, competing with your other priorities.

Reelstack is early, with no client logos to show yet. These are the three things we’ll prove in the demo.

01
The whole stack
CMS, admin, apps and backend come from Reelstack and already work together. There is nothing to integrate.
02
Made for sport
Clubs and leagues were a core audience from the start, so live events, territory rules, blackouts and pay-per-view are part of the platform.
03
White-label
Fans open an app with your name and colours on web, mobile and TV. Reelstack's name isn't on it.

A demo takes you through the whole platform, using your own rights and content as the example.
