Accedo expands marketplace with Brightcove, Verimatrix, and Vualto DRM integrations

The modular integration of multiple DRM providers gives video operators localized flexibility to secure high-value licensing deals without custom infrastructure overhead. As content fragmentation increases, the ability to toggle security vendors via a SaaS marketplace reduces time-to-market for premium services. This move reinforces the industry shift toward unified cloud-based ecosystems where security is treated as a plug-and-play service rather than a bespoke engineering hurdle. Watch for the completion of the Irdeto and CastLabs integrations as a signal of Accedo's attempt to provide a comprehensive security middle-layer for global OTT workflows.

The expansion of Accedo’s security marketplace aligns with a broader consolidation and scaling of its SaaS business. In December 2025, Accedo and Magine Pro agreed to merge their respective SaaS units, Accedo One and Magine Pro, into a new jointly owned entity named Leyra, per TVBEurope and decodeTV. This new organization, led by CEO Markus Hejdenberg, officially launched in March 2026 to create a larger-scale competitor in the OTT software sector by combining Accedo's modular UX technology with Magine Pro's cloud distribution stack.

Accedo has continued to update the platform’s core capabilities beyond security. In October 2024, the company announced advanced personalization and analytics updates for Accedo One, including 'Smart Playlists' for automated curation and native support for Comcast Xfinity X1, per IBC. These updates are intended to help streaming providers lower total cost of ownership (TCO) during a period of high interest rates and increased pressure for profitability. Accedo reported that customers transitioning from bespoke development to its SaaS platform realized average cost savings of 80%.

The global multi-DRM market is projected to see significant growth as piracy concerns escalate alongside the rise of live sports streaming. According to Market Research Future and WiseGuyReports, the multi-DRM solution market is expected to reach a valuation of approximately $15 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of over 10%. This growth is driven by the necessity for content owners to manage rights efficiently across diverse operating systems and the increasing adoption of cloud-native security frameworks by platforms like Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure.
