About

3Q is Europe's sovereign video infrastructure for enterprises and mid-market organisations that need full control over their video stack. Unlike US-headquartered providers that rent capacity from hyperscalers, 3Q owns its entire hardware and software stack and runs it on its own physical servers in colocations in Nuremberg and Frankfurt. Your content stays on EU-owned infrastructure, GDPR-compliant, ISO/IEC 27001 certified, and independent of US providers. Video hosting and management. You upload video by browser or video API, organise everything in a central media library, and run a white-label video portal for your audience. Automated workflows handle transcoding, metadata, and publishing to websites, apps, and internal portals. Live streaming and webinars. You stream live to large audiences with no limits on viewers or data volume, transmit redundantly with all common encoders, and convert every livestream to video-on-demand automatically with Live2VOD. Browser-based webinars and webcasting add live chat, Q&A, polling, and enterprise SSO for town halls and events. Delivery and player. A proprietary global video CDN, multi-CDN, and eCDN keep playback stable on every device, even inside restricted corporate networks, with China delivery for global reach. Every video plays through a Cookie- and Consent-free HTML5 Video Player that is fast, fully customisable, and barrier-free to WCAG and BITV. Video AI and analytics. Built-in video AI creates transcriptions, automatic subtitles, translations, chapter markers, and text-to-speech, while video analytics show viewing time, reach, and engagement per asset. Developers integrate everything through a REST video API and native player SDKs, from secure corporate intranets to OTT backends. 3Q is based in Munich, with modular pay-as-you-go pricing and 24/7 human support. Enterprise video hosting, streaming, and delivery, built in Germany and controlled by you.

Multi-channel live streaming lets viewers switch between feeds, languages, or camera perspectives in the player. Every livestream converts automatically to video-on-demand with Live2VOD, so recordings are ready the moment the stream ends and build into a media library. Because 3Q owns its infrastructure in colocations in Nuremberg and Frankfurt, your livestreams stay GDPR-compliant and independent of US providers. 3Q is ISO/IEC 27001 certified, with 24/7 human support.
