About Us

Packet Ship is a software technology company providing an integrated set of components for video-on-demand and digital media delivery, including software video servers, IPTV recorders, content management systems, content delivery networks and DRM.

Our software runs on standard Linux platforms - either server or embedded - and is designed for quick integration into new or existing media products and services.

We license software to OEM, systems integrator and service operator partners and work closely with their development teams to ensure a fast, risk-free development process and maximum reliability in service, and commercially to ensure the completed solution is cost-effective for the target market.

Packet Ship is based in Cornwall, UK, and takes its name from the first global content distribution system - the packet ships that carried mail quickly and securely from here to the rest of the world in the 18th and 19th centuries.
