Brightcove is an online service for creating, distributing and monetizing Internet TV channels. For content owners who are creating and managing channels, the Brightcove service is accessed through a web-based application, the Brightcove Console . Viewers can watch the channels you produce in any web browser, and if you make video available for purchase, it can be downloaded and played back on a PC or network connected TV.

Creating a channel with Brightcove is simple:

Prepare and upload your video files
Organize video titles and lineups
Configure a video player
Add the player to your website

Beyond a basic channel, Brightcove provides a rich set of services for customizing your channels, distributing them, and monetizing them with advertising and paid media.
