The AIOZ Network Developers and Engineers are building an innovative cutting edge state-of-the-art media infrastructure. One of the first-ever fully functional distributed content delivery networks (dCDN) and one that will change the way we create, distribute and consume content of all shapes and sizes. From audio music and podcasts, video playbacks, live streaming to every type of digital media data, AIOZ will revolutionize content distribution.

AIOZ is a blockchain media-focused network. An infrastructure that developers and entrepreneurs can build on top of and create a wide range of content delivery products. Think decentralized Youtube or Spotify

What we’ve already built

While we have already built a functional video-sharing dApp, AIOZ Tube, which is similar to youtube but with better incentives for creators, viewers, and advertisers, this is just a sample. A powerful sample, but a sample nonetheless.

We are working on other decentralized applications (DApps) for the AIOZ Network like AIOZ OTT, a subscription video service that will allow media owners with a library of hours upon hours to stream series and movies and get paid in $AIOZ native tokens while doing so. Then, there’s AIOZ TV, a live-streaming app that will turn real-life events into a business and allow creators to earn $AIOZ.

We have and are creating all of these “examples” to show the community that we mean business. The AIOZ Network is the real deal. We know it and want you to know it too. But now it’s your turn to imagine, create and develop on our network. We want the whole world to be involved in the future of content delivery. From edge nodes to developers and entrepreneurs, to content creators and consumers and advertisers. The AIOZ team is leading the charge, but we’re all in this together!

Why we’re doing this

In this post, we want to share some of the advantages that developers and entrepreneurs will have when building on top of our network. This applies to new businesses and platforms but also to existing and known platforms like Youtube, Netflix or Spotify.

We’re not just looking to compete, we’re looking to build a brighter future for everyone already involved in the business and we have nothing but respect and admiration for the people that have created these existing centralized platforms which have already changed the lives of millions of people around the world.

The advantages: What’s in it for you?

So, without further ado, we want to share the advantages that AIOZ Network is bringing to those looking to develop new products, for those looking to build on our network, and for existing businesses looking to improve their infrastructure. The AIOZ Network will offer a plug-and-play type of service with full customization available. Here are all the details:

For developers:

Developers usually care about one thing and one thing only: Building. We know this because our team is truly made out of passionate devs. That’s why we are working with Innovion who will handle other moving pieces of this revolutionary “machine”. So what can developers count on?

  • Developer friendly resources portal catering by Solutions Areas and by Industries
  • Libraries of SDKs/Toolkits and APIs designed for Developers built by Developers.

For entrepreneurs and companies:

Entrepreneurs love to take the developed products and making them accessible to the world. Think about Nikolai Tesla and Thomas Edison. The technology created by Tesla was incredible and way ahead of his time but it didn’t change the world then. Edison, on the other hand had an entrepreneurial mind and was able to bring his creation to the world.

For the entrepreneurs facing technical know-how challenges and cash-burning over their startups, AIOZ offers superior content delivery, monetization, and scalability according to their needs.

  • TVOD — transaction video on demand
  • SVOD — subscription-based video on demand
  • AVOD — ad-supported video on demand

This means cost-effective and efficient deployment through the purchase of the $AIOZ Native Tokens to reward AIOZ Network nodes, leaving all the computational “work” in the hands of our distributed network nodes.

For clients/consumer:

Consumers just want to sit back, relax and enjoy their favorite content and that’s where all the aforementioned parts will merge. As consumers, they will be able to enjoy next generation streaming quality on the dApps with peer-to-peer (P2P) nodes, with reduced latency and less buffering times within frames.

What’s even more interesting is that consumers can also be workers (nodes) too.

  • Pay to play — dApps pay you to play their content on dApps (if consumers are nodes too)
  • Running nodes can pay for the subscription on the dApps
