Special live event monitoring

How it works in 3 steps

Real-time multi-device monitoring

Real-time multi-device monitoring

Live broadcasts are streamed across countless devices: Smart TVs, set-top boxes, mobile, and OTT apps. Witbe can monitor all of them, simultaneously.

  • Monitor live video quality, availability, and latency from a single dashboard.
  • The REC mosaic provides a real-time, side-by-side view of every stream.
  • Scale up to 156 devices on 4K monitors for full event coverage.
  • Detect black screens, freezes, or playback drops instantly.

Why it matters: you see what your viewers see, in real time, from any location.

Instant alerts for video quality and latency

When millions are watching, seconds count. Witbe’s frame-accurate analysis detects even micro interruptions.

  • Receive instant alerts for video quality drops, latency spikes, and content mismatches.
  • Identify buffering, black screens, or audio sync issues as they happen.
  • Integrate alerts into your existing workflows via Slack, email, or API.
  • React before your audience notices, and avoid social media backlash.

Result: uninterrupted live viewing, fewer customer complaints, and stronger SLAs.

Once the event ends, your team needs to know exactly what worked, and what didn’t.

  • Smartgate consolidates all performance metrics, logs, and video traces for easy review.
  • Generate visual reports to share with stakeholders or partners.
  • Analyze latency trends, regional differences, and ad placement performance.
  • Export proof-of-performance for sponsors or third-party validation.

Insight drives improvement: every event becomes a data-driven opportunity to enhance the next.

Video recordings are available when needed for third-party validation or cross-team collaboration, ensuring every stakeholder has clear, visual proof of performance.
