How to build your video platform in 3 steps

  1. 1. Create your channel

    Define your brand identity in Videas: logo, colors, light/dark theme and page layout. Videas Channels generates a ready-to-use website publishable on your own domain or subdomain, with automatic SSL — no server setup needed.

  2. 2. Organize your content

    Structure your videos by categories, subcategories, series and playlists. Enrich each video with chapters, subtitles (generated by Videas Scribe), tags and descriptions to make every item discoverable through built-in navigation and search.

  3. 3. Publish & monetize

    Choose the access level for each video and category: public, private, unlisted or password-protected. Enable SSO for enterprise teams, set up purchase, rental or subscription pricing via Stripe, and track viewer engagement with per-user analytics.

Six ways to use a channel

Internal communication platform

Share announcements and training videos with SSO access. Track engagement per department.

Three sections of an internal channel: Trending, Features and News.

A shopping cart: 24-hour rental, 48-hour rental and monthly subscription, each with its price.

Web TV

Public video channel with curated homepage and playlists. Professional website, no custom build needed.

A web TV homepage: logo, menu, lead image and a play button.

Your design, without a line of code

Logo, colors, light or dark theme and a branded player — align every detail with your identity. Compose pages with drag-and-drop blocks: hero banners, carousels, playlists and CTAs. Publish on your own domain with automatic SSL.

Categories & content structure

Organize your catalog with multi-level categories, tags and playlists. Each category gets its own banner and featured content. Viewers find videos through browsing, search or curated playlists — no scrolling through unorganized lists.

Who sees what: access rights and SSO

Set access per video or category: public, private, unlisted or password-protected. Manage roles — admin, manager, viewer — and offer SSO (SAML, OpenID Connect) for enterprise teams. Create user groups so each viewer sees only their content.

What you set yourself

Everything included in Videas Channels.


What Videas does not do

Videas does not bring you an audience. A channel does not rank on its own: the viewers are yours to bring. We do not produce your videos either — you shoot and edit with your own tools. And your channel is a website: it opens in the browser of a phone, a tablet or a connected TV, but mobile apps are still in development. If your project depends on them, tell us before you start.


What does a channel cost?

  • €10

    per month, per channel

  • 15%

    commission on what you sell

  • +€10

    per month to connect your own domain

The channel sits on top of usage: €0.20 per hour of video stored each month, €0.02 per gigabyte delivered, with the first terabyte free. There is no subscription — everything is debited from a prepaid credit wallet you top up whenever you like. Selling by subscription, pay-per-view and rental is included, at no extra cost.

What people who launched one say


Frequently asked questions

Can I make my platform completely private?

Yes. Every video and every category carries its own access level: public, private, unlisted or password-protected. You can also close the whole channel behind authentication, create viewer groups, and open up to each group only the part of the catalog that concerns it.

How do I sell my videos on my platform?

You set a price per video, per category or per subscription plan, and payment runs through Stripe in a checkout that carries your brand. Outright purchase, time-limited rental and recurring subscription can coexist on the same channel. Videas takes 15% of each sale; you track revenue from the dashboard.

Can I publish my channel on my own domain?

Yes. Your channel is a ready-to-use website, delivered on a Videas URL, which you can then move to your own domain or subdomain. The SSL certificate is issued and renewed automatically. A custom domain costs €10 a month, on top of the €10 for the channel itself.

How do I organize a catalog of several hundred videos?

With categories and subcategories, tags, series and playlists. Each category gets its own banner and featured content, and your viewers find a video by browsing, by searching or through an editorial playlist. You reorder everything by drag and drop, without touching the files themselves.

How far can I customize the design?

The page builder covers your logo, colors, light or dark theme, the player and the composition of each page in blocks — banners, carousels, playlists, call-to-action buttons. Beyond that we can reproduce an existing mockup or build a bespoke style, on quote. You configure your channel; you do not recode its template.

What statistics does a Videas channel give me?

Views, watch time, retention, engagement and bandwidth, at four levels: the channel, the category, the video and the individual viewer. You see what each user watched and how far they got, and you export those reports for training records or audience analysis.

Is playback smooth on mobile and on TV?

Yes. Every video is encoded at several qualities and the player continuously picks the one the connection can carry, with nothing for the viewer to adjust. The channel adapts to desktop, mobile, tablet and connected televisions, inside a browser: there is no app to make anyone install.

Do you handle subtitles and multiple languages?

Yes for subtitles: Videas Scribe generates them automatically in over a hundred languages, and viewers switch track directly in the player. The channel interface itself exists in several languages too. Multiple audio tracks, however, are not supported yet: a video keeps its original soundtrack.

Can we migrate a catalog from YouTube or Vimeo?

Yes, and we do it free of charge. Your videos hosted on YouTube or Vimeo are pulled across and dropped into your Mediasbox library with their titles and descriptions. You then publish them into the channel, in whatever order and categories you choose. BTLV moved 4,000 hours of replays this way.

Where are the videos on my channel hosted?

In France, on infrastructure we run ourselves. No video leaves for a third party, the player sets no advertising cookie, and none of your viewers' data is resold. Processing is GDPR compliant, a data protection officer oversees it, and you remain the owner of your content.

Can I try before I pay?

Yes. Opening an account is free: you get €5 in credits at signup, then €5 every month, and the first terabyte delivered is free. That is enough to build a demonstration channel and actually run it. We also offer a guided demo if you want to see selling in action.
