Architecture overview

One layer ours. Three layers yours.

RedSquid handles the system & settings — the invisible core every other layer runs on. Around it the operator owns the UI, curates the app shelf and shapes the ecosystem the household lives in — click each layer to see what sits where.

What the platform gives you

Four things every operator asks for.

Operator-first experience

The operator app runs full-screen as the primary UI. RedSquid's system overlays appear only when the viewer presses a system key.

Deep hardware control

RedSquid talks directly to the TV: tuner, HDMI, audio routing, display, power, network, remote. Nothing is abstracted away from you.

Every broadcast standard, globally

DVB-T2, DVB-S2, DVB-C, DVB-I and ATSC 3.0 (NextGen TV) — terrestrial, satellite, cable and IP-delivered linear, anywhere in the world. Plus HbbTV 2.0.4, OpApp (Freely), CI+ 1.4/2.0, Widevine, PlayReady, HDCP 2.2/2.3.

Operator data, not ours

OS-level telemetry on discovery, viewing and attention flows back into your systems. 100% data and revenue stays with the operator.
