Grabyo x Tagboard: For everyone
The social and digital landscape is crowded. Each week, and during the off-season, you’re competing with creators, influencers, broadcasters, media organizations, leagues and federations to connect with your fans online.
While fans are loyal to your team, they’re fickle with their viewing habits. All they care about is fresh, high-quality content and engaging stories. That’s what drives them.
Many of your competitors have high production budgets, more resources and more equipment to drive fans to their channels.
How do you compete? You level the playing field with live cloud production.
This is what drives us. Alongside Tagboard, our mission is to make high-quality live production accessible to all, at a fraction of the cost and resource you would traditionally need by using innovation and technology.
How does it work?
Traditionally, the tools and resources required to create high-quality and engaging broadcasts can be costly and difficult to manage. You’d need large teams and a studio with a ton of equipment and complex graphics engines.
High cost to build, high cost to run. Difficult to build, difficult to run.
With Grabyo and Tagboard, all you need is a team of one to two people, laptops and an internet connection, stationed anywhere in the world. Both platforms are hosted in the cloud and accessed/operated in a web browser.
Low cost to build, low cost to run. Easy to build, easy to run.
Grabyo Producer is a virtual production control room, that takes just an hour to master with easy to use controls for:
- Video switching
- Graphics operation (integrated with Tagboard)
- Live ad insertion
- Multi-track audio mixing
- Media playout
- Hosting remote talent and guests
- Direct streaming to all major social platforms
- Custom streaming endpoints to websites and apps
Tagboard is a modern interactive graphics system for news, sports, and entertainment, efficiently enabling primetime shows, gameday and tentpole events with fun apps to engage the audience, create monetizable moments, all backed by Emmy-winning support.
Tagboard features include:
- Comprehensive graphics packages using templates or Adobe drag and drop
- Pull fan-created content from X, Threads, TikTok, Twitch Comments
- Overlay interactive polls and trivia
- Live data-driven graphics including NFL, NBA, NHL, NCAA, and many additional options via JSON or API connection
Combining our two platforms, you can create TV-quality live streams, using only the equipment and staff you already have.
The benefits: Reduced costs, fan connection & revenue generation
Reduced costs
Say goodbye to the six-figure service fees for your graphics systems, expensive hardware maintenance and upgrade costs, plus sky-high professional services bills.
Eliminate the need for on-premise hardware, complex software stacks and bloated crews.
With our fully-managed, cloud SaaS platforms, you only pay for what you use. Elastic scaling means you can increase or decrease your service as you need it. Maintenance, upgrades and award-winning support comes as standard.
You have the flexibility to try fresh formats and new things, with minimal risk. A format not working? Can it. No leftover equipment or services, no wasted money.
Fan connection
Out of the box, you’re set to create a variety of live content for fans, including pre-game/ post-game shows, video podcasts, interactive shows, press conferences, sideline coverage, altcasts and more.
Bring fans into the heart of your show with social comments, videos and photo contributions that you can seamlessly display. Drive engagement with interactive segments – take questions and comments, give fans more control over your content.
The endgame? Make your own channels the go-to for video content, year round.
Revenue generation
Turn every stream into a revenue opportunity. Attract new sponsors, or bolster your current agreements with social and digital assets.
Bring in ads, video packages and graphics from brand partners for sponsored segments and branded moments during your live streams.
Create frictionless shoppable journeys for your sponsors, plus your own merch and tickets.
With reduced production costs and increased revenue opportunities, come out ahead every time.
“At Grabyo our mission is to democratize and simplify live production workflows. For years we’ve worked with the world’s largest sports teams, clubs and federations to build a platform that makes broadcast-quality production accessible to all – from social media managers, to digital content creators and broadcast teams. Combined with Tagboard, our platform is the most powerful solution on the market for cloud production, streaming, fan engagement and monetization. The platform evolves at speed delivering faster, smarter and more powerful tools every time you login, with flexible pricing so you only pay for what you use.”
“Major media boasts incredible power in their brand and IP, yet overhead costs of content creation limit the possibilities when approached “the same way it’s always been done”. Both Grabyo and Tagboard have seen the power of modernizing content creation through our platforms; I’m excited to team up and help more people create without breaking the bank.”
