The event-day job

Get the right media to the people waiting for it — while the event is still live.

Sponsors need their coverage. Press need approved photographs. Remote attendees need the session recording. Bring intake, preparation and release into one media workflow so each hand-off can move at the pace of the event.

One photograph, prepared for each audience.
Turn session recordings into attendee-ready video.

Transcode the uploaded recording, choose a poster frame and serve adaptive HLS playback in your attendee experience. Prepare clips and keep recordings in your post-event library.

Before

Collect submissions and assets.

Bring entries, speaker media and sponsor assets into the workflow through your own portal.

During

Deliver approved media on the day.

Prepare photographs and recordings for the people who need them while interest is current.

For event portfolios

Keep every event brand distinct, with one media foundation across the portfolio.

Give each event team and partner access to the material meant for them. Reuse your media processes across brands, or start with a single conference or awards programme handling many assets and hand-offs.

Bring the media workflow into your existing portal.

Embed the File Picker for uploads. Serve your website, app and attendee experience through the API and supported media URLs.

Awards programmes & challenging venues

Support the workflows that surround your main event.

Extend the same media foundation to entry review, permanent showcases and venues where connectivity cannot be taken for granted.

Awards programmes

From submission through judging to a permanent showcase.

Receive media through your portal, prepare it for controlled review and serve cleared work in a searchable showcase. Your awards platform keeps the entry form and judging process.

The organiser runs the subscription or access-controlled library, and FileSpin provides the media processing and delivery behind it.

Enterprise deployment

Process media on-site with Teleport, even when the venue Wi-Fi drops.

Teleport runs ingest, processing, watermarking and local delivery at the venue, then syncs with FileSpin Cloud as soon as you’re back online.

AI Agent

Prepare an event-media backlog in one instruction — within the controls you set.

Enable the agent to find, prepare, tag and share media within the user’s permissions. Your team keeps the release decisions, and can run the media workflow without AI.

Acts as the user

Runs within the permissions of the invoking user.

Respects the schema

Validates metadata writes against the established rules.

Leaves an audit trail

Logs the actions taken on behalf of each user.

Protects originals

The agent can’t bulk-delete or overwrite any original assets.

Can several event brands keep their media access separate?

What happens if venue connectivity is unreliable?

Use Teleport, which runs your chosen FileSpin media operations on-site: ingest, processing, watermarking and delivery work on the venue’s local network, even without internet. It then syncs with FileSpin Cloud as soon as you’re back online.
