Understanding Endavo Usage-Based Pricing

Platform usage pricing explained for OTT Channel (and Pro) account plans. 

 

Usage Pricing for Storage • Streaming • Live Events

At Endavo, we believe pricing should be simple, predictable, and aligned with how you actually use video.

Your platform subscription includes generous usage across storage, streaming, and live events—and only charges additional fees as your usage grows.

This guide explains how each component works so you can easily understand and forecast your costs.


🎬 1. Video Storage (Hours Stored)

💡 How it works

We price storage based on the total duration of video content in your account—not file size or technical complexity.

  • Included: 250 hours of video (500 for OTT Channel Pro accounts)

  • Additional usage: $0.10 per hour of video per month

📊 Example

  • 200 hours stored → included (no extra cost)

  • 500 hours stored → 250 included + 250 billable

  • Monthly cost: 250 × $0.10 = $25


✅ Why we price this way

  • Simple & intuitive – you think in hours, not gigabytes

  • Predictable – no surprises based on bitrate or file size

  • Fair – longer libraries scale naturally with your business


⚙️ What’s included

Every stored video is automatically:

  • Encoded into multiple renditions (ABR)

  • Optimized for streaming on all devices

  • Ready for OTT delivery instantly

👉 No additional encoding or processing fees


🌐 2. Streaming Bandwidth (CDN Delivery)

💡 How it works

Bandwidth measures how much video your audience watches.

  • Included: 5 TB (5,000 GB) per month

  • Additional usage: $0.08 per GB


📊 Example

  • 3 TB streamed → included (no extra cost)

  • 8 TB streamed → 5 TB included + 3 TB billable

  • Monthly cost: 3,000 GB × $0.08 = $240


✅ Why this is competitive

  • Comparable to major cloud CDNs (AWS, Google)

  • No contracts or minimum commitments

  • Significant included usage (worth ~$400/month)


⚙️ What’s included

  • Global content delivery (CDN)

  • Adaptive bitrate playback

  • Scalable performance for large audiences

👉 No need to manage CDN vendors or infrastructure


🔴 3. Live Streaming (ABR Live Events)

💡 How it works

Live streaming charges apply only when using full adaptive bitrate (ABR) encoding for professional-quality broadcasts.

  • Included: 30 hours per month (50 hours for OTT Channel Pro accounts)

  • Additional usage: $1.50 per hour (ABR live streaming)


📊 Example

  • 20 hours streamed → included (no extra cost)

  • 50 hours streamed → 30 included + 20 billable

  • Monthly cost: 20 × $1.50 = $30


⚠️ Important

  • Charges apply only to ABR live streams (multi-bitrate encoding). This is an option in your Live Event form.

  • Basic/non-ABR streaming does not incur this charge


⚙️ What’s included

Each live event includes:

  • Real-time multi-bitrate encoding (4 renditions)

  • Stream packaging for all devices

  • Reliable, managed streaming infrastructure

👉 No need for external encoders or complex setup


🧾 Putting It All Together

Your monthly usage is made up of three simple components:

Component Included Overage Rate
Storage 250 hours $0.10 per hour
Streaming (CDN) 5 TB $0.08 per GB
Live Streaming (ABR) 30 hours $1.50 per hour

💡 Why This Model is Best for our Customers

✅ Predictable

  • Clear included amounts

  • Straightforward overage pricing

✅ Fair

  • Pay only as you grow

  • No hidden infrastructure costs

✅ All-in-One

  • Storage + encoding + delivery + live streaming

  • No need for multiple vendors or complex setups


🚀 Final Thought

Endavo’s pricing is designed to scale with your success:

  • Start with generous included usage

  • Grow without friction

  • Pay only for what you actually use
