All Smart VPU Products

The Future of Video

We used science and ASIC technology to build the world’s first hardware encoder for standard x86 and Arm servers that delivers the performance of hardware with the quality and flexibility of software. Video transcoding is what we do. It’s all we do. So, we have to be the best in the world.

Our Brand Promise:

Hyperscale Profitably

We’re industry pioneers who executed our product vision to become the first to market with multiple generations of VPUs for streaming platforms. We promise that when you convert video processing to VPUs, the obstacles that previously held you back will dissolve, enabling you to realize substantial growth and profits.

When you build with ASICs, your costs drop and your output increases. The byproduct of your VPU transition is profitable hyperscaling.

Your Buying Journey

What to Expect When You’re Vetting NETINT

Let’s face it: The typical transcoder evaluation and implementation process takes 12-18 months. Our ability to help you navigate that process meaningfully differentiates us. Here’s what you can expect when you work with us:

A Common Language

We are engineers, selling to engineers. Our pedigree of technical talent runs deep, from our visionary leadership to R&D and throughout our sales team. We know how engineers think, what they need, and how they work. We help anticipate obstacles to smooth out your purchasing journey.

Comprehensive Documentation

Efficient technology implementations require straightforward APIs and clear and comprehensive documentation. That’s why our products come with integration guides, quick start manuals, application notes for critical features, and other technical data.

You chose wisely

You made the decision to evaluate ASIC VPUs inside your system. You chose on the principles of price, power and density and as a result, you’ll gain profit and the agility to truly hyperscale your streaming platform.

We speak your language

We are Engineers, selling to Engineers. Our pedigree of technical talent runs deep from our visionary leadership to R&D and throughout our sales team. We know how engineers think, what they need, and how they work. We help anticipate obstacles to smooth out your purchasing journey.

Our Field Engineers exist for you

Your support experience is paramount to us and as a result, we’ve invested as a company in the Field Account Engineering team to support your buying cycles. We believe this is a major differentiator as we are extremely invested in your experience. Our team is attentive and tenacious in supporting you before, during and after your testing and implementation phases.

Testing and Implementing Cycles

We know what’s at stake when an engineering team tries to qualify a new technology like ASICs. We know your documentation engineers will require data to direct their design-ins, we know you’ll require support from field engineering, and we know it takes time to test and retest. Because we know if you don’t succeed with our products, we don’t succeed. And that’s not an option for us.

Promise: Hyperscale Profitably

We have demonstrated product vision, execution and quality. We are pioneers with a track record of first-to-market execution with a sense of urgency to get it right for our customers. We do transcoding only. It’s our only focus and we do it better than anyone else. As a result, we promise you will hyperscale profitably with our VPUs.
