About

3Q is the European digital infrastructure for video streaming, OTT, and FAST channels. The partner-friendly SaaS solution is API-first and runs on 3Q's own independent European video infrastructure, independently of hyperscalers. The 3Q online video platform, made in Germany, lets customers and partners host, manage, and distribute audiovisual content live and on-demand on websites and apps. 3Q's white-label solution for video portals gives audiences fully managed content, with a central media library that provides analytics on each asset's streaming performance. 3Q is GDPR-compliant and all processes are ISO/IEC 27001 certified. It scales globally with multi-CDN and a China setup with ICP filing, valued expertise for many European companies. 3Q is the right choice when European data sovereignty is a non-negotiable requirement and not just "hosted in the EU," but structurally guaranteed. When companies are looking for a specialized, turnkey video platform without having to build their own DevOps team. Video Hosting and Management: You upload videos via browser or video API and organize everything in a central interface. Automated workflows handle transcoding, metadata, and publishing to websites, apps, and the intranet. Live Streaming and Webcasting: You stream live to a large audience with no limits on viewer numbers or data volume, broadcast redundantly with all common encoders, and convert every live stream to video-on-demand automatically with Live2VOD. The Live Clipping module creates new clips directly from a live or completed stream. Delivery and Video Player: The 3Q Content Delivery Network delivers content quickly and in high quality worldwide. The cookie-free and consent-free HTML5 video player works on all devices, supports all video formats, is customizable with logos, overlays, and interactive elements, and offers comprehensive advertising support. It is accessible in accordance with WCAG 2.1/BITV 2.0. Video AI and Analytics: The integrated video AI generates transcripts, metadata, thumbnails, captions, translations, and chapter markers. 3Q Analytics shows how your video and livestream content is used, filterable by project and time period, and exportable. API-First: SDKs give developers access to nearly all features of the 3Q platform: upload, encoding, player integration, streaming, analytics, and more at no additional cost. Headquartered in Munich, 3Q offers a modular pay-as-you-go pricing model & 24/7 support.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I did not see anything good about the product. Great marketing. I liked the website. I was also told about this by a friend so I trusted him.

Cons

  • Destroyed my website. There was clearly a virus embedded in the video player that stole all my identity.

For company-critical live broadcasts, 3Q offers livestreaming on its own European video infrastructure, with no limit on viewers or data volume. 3Q transmits your signal redundantly with all common hardware and software encoders and delivers adaptively at low latency over HLS and DASH. The 3Q Content Delivery Network with multi-CDN keeps playback stable worldwide, including a China setup with ICP filing, and eCDN integration relieves internal corporate networks. Multi-channel streaming lets viewers switch feeds, languages or camera perspectives directly in the player. Live2VOD turns every broadcast into video-on-demand the moment it ends, and the Live Clipping module creates clips straight from a running or finished stream. Every livestream stays GDPR-compliant and independent of US hyperscalers. All 3Q processes are ISO/IEC 27001 certified, with 24/7 support from real video experts.

An API-first design gives programmatic access through a REST video API and native player SDKs at no additional cost, so video hosting, livestreaming, video-on-demand and management embed directly into applications, portals and CMS. The modular architecture carries custom workflows, from secure corporate intranets to the backends OTT partners build on and white-label media libraries. Ingestion, transcoding, video AI and delivery all run through the same API and connect to existing systems and CI workflows. Adaptive streaming over HLS and DASH and the cookie- and consent-free 3Q video player are included. 3Q operates its own independent European video infrastructure, so the whole video workflow stays GDPR-compliant and independent of US hyperscalers.

3Q is the European platform for large-scale online events: webcasts, town halls, Shareholders' Meetings, and press conferences streamed to a few or tens of thousands of viewers. Interaction: The 3Q webcasting module includes live polls, live Q&A, Live reactions and quizzing and presentation slides, so viewers take part inside the player. Access: Single sign-on through your identity provider secures internal events, and a magic link gives external speakers browser access without an account. Branding: The interface is fully white-label. Every session records automatically with Live2VOD and stays on demand, building a reusable content library. For smaller, strongly interactive webinar formats with microphone and video call-ins, 3Q works with specialist event partners.
