Draper Media trims breaking news turnaround across three stations
Draper Media, an independent media company operating multiple television properties in the Delmarva region, has improved its news and sports production workflows using latakoo's cloud-based video workflow platform. After nearly a year of deployment across WBOC-TV, CoastTV, and Delmarva Sports Network, latakoo has reduced breaking news turnaround times by streamlining video ingest, transcription, transcoding, archiving, and sharing processes.
Key Takeaways
- latakoo has been deployed across WBOC-TV, CoastTV, and Delmarva Sports Network for nearly a year.
- Draper Media says the platform reduced breaking news turnaround times by streamlining video ingest, transcription, transcoding, archiving, and sharing.
- Josh Lynch, Draper Media's Director of Engineering and Operations, said latakoo removed bottlenecks in ingest pipelines.
- Lynch called latakoo a "cornerstone system" for endpoint users handling fast ingest and media processing.
- latakoo President and co-founder Jade Kurian said Draper Media's local news and sports coverage is the kind of work the company wants to enable.
Why It Matters
The immediate takeaway is operational: Draper Media is using latakoo to move time-sensitive video through ingest, transcription, transcoding, archiving, and sharing faster across three television properties. That matters because breaking news and sports workflows depend on short turnaround times, and Draper says the platform removed bottlenecks in its ingest pipeline. For latakoo, the deployment reinforces its positioning with local broadcasters and production teams serving multiple properties. Watch for whether Draper expands the same workflow across its other television and radio assets listed in the release.
