Meeting New Goals with Advanced Technology
As part of its upgrade, Janam TV has set ambitious goals: improving news turnaround times, particularly for coverage focused on India and international stories, and integrating innovative workflows for digital media. The newly updated system will empower their team to manage multi-channel delivery efficiently, ensuring smooth transitions from the studio to both linear and digital platforms.
Janam TV’s unique vision of expanding its hyperlocal coverage within Kerala is also at the heart of this technology revamp. With Kerala’s strong interest in community-focused news, the station’s approach would now align perfectly with Octopus Newsroom’s flexible tools, like the iReporter, which would be a perfect fit for Janam TV and allow them to incorporate crowd-sourced news content from the local community directly into their production flow.
Streamlining News Production with Automation
Janam TV’s upgraded system aims to fully automate its multi-channel news production, from live studio broadcasts to digital outlets. Enhanced integration capabilities will connect messaging platforms, news agencies, freelancers, and even audience feedback with Octopus Newsroom right from the onset of the news lifecycle, allowing Janam TV to break news quickly and deliver it to viewers on multiple platforms simultaneously.
Moreover, the newsroom will benefit from an advanced alert system, helping Janam TV be among the first to cover breaking news by streamlining notifications across multiple platforms. By implementing Octopus’s AI-assisted creative tools, Janam’s editorial and production teams can focus on content quality, bringing Kerala’s hyperlocal stories to audiences with precision, speed, and a creative edge.
Bringing Kerala’s News to the World
For Janam TV, whose name, Janam, means “people” in Malayalam, the upgrade is not just a technical enhancement but a reaffirmation of their mission to serve Kerala’s diverse communities with trustworthy, relevant news. With its upgraded Octopus Newsroom system and new MAM capabilities, Janam TV is positioned to elevate its role as a key information source in India’s media landscape, dedicated to connecting with people at every level, from local audiences to international viewers.
A Growing Presence Across South and Southeast Asia
With a strong presence across South and Southeast Asia, Octopus Newsroom is trusted by broadcasters in this region, and beyond. This geographical influence has allowed Octopus to develop solutions tailored to the unique demands of diverse markets, from breaking news alerts in high-traffic newsrooms to hyperlocal community-driven content. Janam TV’s recent upgrade is part of a broader movement across the region where broadcasters are investing in the future of news production, supported by Octopus’s commitment to innovation and quality.
