Building your own VOD streaming platform: what you need to know in 2026

The global video-on-demand (VOD) market surpassed $100 billion in 2024 and continues to grow at 12–15% annually. More and more entrepreneurs, independent media companies, training organisations and sports clubs are looking to build their own streaming platform — their own Netflix — to own their audience directly and monetise content without middlemen.

Unlike SaaS VOD solutions like Uscreen, Vimeo OTT or Dacast which charge 5 to 15% commission on your subscriptions, a custom-built platform is entirely yours. No commission on your revenue. You control your catalogue, your audience, your data and your brand.

FlexiApps, headquartered at Technopark Casablanca, has been building custom VOD streaming platforms since 2014 — mobile apps for iOS & Android, responsive web, Smart TV, Apple TV, with Widevine & FairPlay DRM, global CDN and Stripe & PayPal integration. Full source code delivered at launch.

Monetisation Models

Which business model for your VOD platform?

FlexiApps builds all three video streaming models — SVOD, AVOD and TVOD — or a hybrid combination tailored to your commercial strategy.

SVOD

Monthly subscription

Predictable recurring revenue. Users pay a fixed subscription to access the full catalogue. Ideal for building a loyal audience and a stable revenue base.

Examples
Netflix Disney+ Canal+
TVOD

Buy / Rent per title

Users buy or rent content per title. Perfect for exclusive releases, events, premium films and high-value training courses.

Examples
Apple TV Google Play VOD Ciné

Glossary

Key streaming video terms

Understanding the VOD ecosystem to make the right technology and business decisions.

VOD
Video On Demand — technology that lets users choose and play video content at any time, as opposed to linear TV. The global VOD market surpassed $100 billion in 2024 and continues to grow at 12–15% per year.
SVOD
Subscription Video On Demand — modèle par abonnement mensuel ou annuel. Revenus récurrents prévisibles. Ex : Netflix, Disney+, Canal+.
AVOD
Advertising VOD — accès gratuit financé par la publicité. Monétisation via annonceurs. Ex : YouTube, 2M Play, Shahid.
TVOD
Transactional VOD — achat ou location à l'unité. Idéal pour les sorties exclusives, événements premium, formations coûteuses.
DRM
Digital Rights Management — protection contre le piratage. Widevine (Google), FairPlay (Apple) et PlayReady (Microsoft) sont les standards.
HLS
HTTP Live Streaming — protocole de diffusion adaptatif. Video quality adjusts automatically to the user's connection speed.
CDN
Content Delivery Network — global network of video distribution servers. For streaming, AWS CloudFront, Cloudflare and Akamai are the leading CDNs. They reduce latency by serving content from the geographically closest point to the viewer.
Transcoding
Automatic conversion of your source video into multiple resolutions (4K, 1080p, 720p, 480p) to adapt to all devices and connections.
OTT
Over-The-Top — delivery of video content directly over the internet, bypassing cable or satellite operators. Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video are OTT services. Building your own OTT platform lets you distribute content directly to your global audience.
