Introduction
Motto was built with live-streaming sports in mind, as our founding team comes from sports OTTs like MyCujoo, Eleven Sports and DAZN. We aim to simplify live-streaming for any rights-holder or broadcaster of sports video content, by reducing technical and operational complexity of professional OTT delivery.
Events are a central concept in any sports organization, because “match day” is what we all work towards!
An event in Motto’s systems represents a single sports match, press conference, scrimmage session, or anything else that has a start and end time in the real world. Events can be associated with one or more live streams and/or VODs.
Get Started
You can get started using the Motto Studio, which we recommend for non-technical users. Alternatively, you may get started by using the Motto API.
Next Steps
You have now created a basic event, which is useful when you are just starting on your Motto journey, but in most real scenarios you will want to associate more metadata with your events. For example, you may wish to associate team or competition information with the event, for improved discoverability on your OTT platform, and so that this information can be displayed in your OTT platform’s UI.
In Motto, this work by creating Custom Types. Our support team can also help you with this, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us!
