Technology for Public Media Service Broadcasting
Cost Efficiency + Multi-Channel

Launch and run multiple channels without multiplying your costs.

Titan unifies playout, graphics, scheduling, and operations into a single scalable platform built for public media broadcasters.

Our Mission

Public Media Technology Group exists to empower public media broadcasters with innovative, scalable technology that advances their core mission: to educate, inform, and inspire communities through trusted, universally accessible content.

Building on decades of broadcast innovation, our Titan “TV In A Box” platform, powering the ECHO multi-channel ecosystem, redefines how public television is created, managed, and delivered. By unifying playback, graphics, content trafficking, and cloud-based operations into a single, intelligent platform, we enable stations to expand their reach, streamline workflows, and launch new services with efficiency and reliability.

Through AI-enhanced, rules-based automation, our technology dynamically adapts content to reflect local communities, integrating real-time data, regional context, and audience relevance into every broadcast. This approach strengthens the connection between stations and the audiences they serve, ensuring that public media remains deeply local, culturally meaningful, and responsive in a rapidly evolving media landscape.

We are committed to lowering barriers to entry through cost-effective, standards-based solutions that run on accessible hardware, while seamlessly integrating with modern distribution ecosystems. In doing so, we extend the mission of public broadcasting beyond traditional boundaries, enabling more voices to be heard, more stories to be shared, and more communities to be served.

At its core, Public Media Technology Group is dedicated to building the infrastructure that allows public media to thrive, where innovation serves purpose, technology amplifies trust, and broadcasting continues to put citizens before consumers.

Case Study:

Blue Ridge PBS in Roanoke, Virginia required a modern, scalable delivery platform to support its three subchannels, along with two additional channels for its sister station, PBS Appalachia. TVInABox delivers a dynamic, all-in-one solution that streamlines operations while showcasing exceptional local content with minimal human intervention.

The Public Media Cooperative

The Public Media Cooperative extends the mission of public broadcasting beyond individual stations—creating a shared ecosystem where local content can move, grow, and reach new audiences.

Through the Cooperative, public media broadcasters can seamlessly share locally produced programming across participating stations, opening communities to a broader spectrum of regional voices, stories, and perspectives. Content that was once limited to a single market can now inform, inspire, and connect audiences across the country.

Powered by the Titan platform and integrated within the ECHO multi-channel ecosystem, the Cooperative enables frictionless distribution of programming—removing traditional barriers around content exchange, metadata alignment, and delivery workflows. Stations retain full editorial control while gaining access to a wider library of mission-driven content.

This collaborative model strengthens the foundation of public media by:

  • Expanding access to high-quality, locally produced programming
  • Amplifying diverse community voices across regions
  • Increasing the value and lifespan of original content
  • Enabling efficient, scalable content sharing between stations
  • Reinforcing the public media mission through collective reach

The Public Media Cooperative transforms local storytelling into a shared national resource—where each station contributes to, and benefits from, a richer, more connected public media landscape.
