- Lunex helps Media & Entertainment customers on AWS cut through the fast-moving AI landscape by mapping every AI opportunity across their production workflow and matching them to vetted, compliance-checked vendors—scored for capability, data residency, and territorial regulations—so teams can adopt production-ready AI with confidence rather than guesswork.
- EngineLab transforms open-source creative AI tools like ComfyUI into a secure, production-ready platform—deployed entirely within the customer's own AWS account with IP protection, granular access controls, custom model training, and Deadline Cloud pipeline integration—so studios can scale generative AI across global AWS GPU infrastructure without sacrificing data sovereignty, stability, or compliance.
- Social Department acts as an AI marketing operating system that lets studios, networks, and streamers scale campaigns across their entire content library—using AI-powered clip discovery, at-scale asset generation, and performance tracking to turn the 90%+ of catalog that normally goes unmarketed into an active, monetizable revenue asset, all through a SOC 2–compliant SaaS built on AWS and trusted by Disney, Paramount, CBS, and Hallmark.
- Fal AI provides a developer-friendly generative media platform that delivers the fastest, most cost-efficient inference for 1,000+ production-ready image, video, audio, and music models through a single unified API—so studios, streamers, and creative-tech teams can build responsive, scalable content-generation experiences (text-to-video, image-to-video, real-time streaming) without managing GPU infrastructure amid the ongoing compute shortage.
