Incoming Media

edit

Incoming Media is fixing mobile video.

Mobile video sucks. Streaming doesn’t work for subscribers or carriers, and the economics don’t work for carriers or content owners.

Incoming is building machine-learning technology, based on patent-pending intellectual property from NICTA (a research lab in Australia, birthplace of software that is deployed in 1.5bn mobile devices), to learn and predict the video content you will watch later.

Videos are sent in advance to your phone or tablet, using low cost Wi-Fi or spare cellular capacity, so you can enjoy flawless playback, anytime, anywhere, always.

This also allows mobile networks to be optimised for cheaper transport of video, helping carriers to overcome their capacity crunch, and fixing the economics of mobile video for both carriers and content owners.
