Quickplay Shorts

Short-form
video dominates today’s digital consumption
Platforms like TikTok and YouTube capturing an increasing share across audiences.
Gen Zs are leading the way, spending over three hours daily on short-form platforms, compared to just one hour on traditional streaming and broadcast, combined.
Validating this paradigm shift to short-form consumption is new research from GenZ Insights, in collaboration with Quickplay and Toluna*, conducted to further understand the habits and opportunities for media companies with Gen Z audiences. The research findings being released today reveals that 81% of Gen Z video viewers watch videos in vertical or portrait format weekly and 79% said adding a shorts feature to a streaming service would increase their weekly streamer app usage.
Quickplay Shorts is built to accelerate streamers' roadmap to short-form content experiences.
Its Shorts Creator & Syndicator tool enables OTT providers, through the use of generative AI, to identify, create and distribute bite-sized, vertical format content derived from traditional format live streams and VOD content. This delivers new capacity and velocity for short-form content creation. The Shorts Front-End Plug-In delivers a social-like, vertical format, personalized infinite scroll consumer experience that can easily integrate into existing streamer apps.

In addition to delivering a new format to engage consumers, shorts is a strategic streamer investment that:
- Broadens reach by engaging with new audiences, especially Gen Zs
- Promotes higher value long-form content and subscriptions
- Delivers more monetization opportunities with ad-inventory and shopify-like experiences
- Builds a daily habit with consumers to become their daily destination
