The pay TV industry faces significant hurdles with onboarding OTT apps, including multiple and lengthy integrations, numerous test cycles per integration, and a lack of standardized platforms.
Firebolt Connect is a new RDKM program that aims to simplify and accelerate this process. It gives RDK members access to a curated library of validated apps, easily integrable into an operator’s distribution platform. It also offers content service providers a streamlined process to test, validate, and publish Firebolt applications to any participating operator.

Operator has full control over the app offering it wants to present to its subscribers

Firebolt Connect provides an automated system through which apps can be validated for performance on any Firebolt compliant RDK device. Validated apps will then be made accessible to RDKM members. Watch this short video to see how it works:
