Your platform subscription includes generous usage across storage, streaming, and live eventsโ€”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. --- ### ๐ŸŽฌ 1. Video Storage (Hours Stored) ### ๐Ÿ’ก How it works We price storage based on the **total duration of video content** in your accountโ€”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 ### ๐Ÿ“Š Example - 200 hours stored โ†’ included (no extra cost) - 500 hours stored โ†’ 250 included + 250 billable - Monthly cost: 250 ร— $0.10 = **$25** --- ### โœ… Why we price this way - **Simple & intuitive** โ€“ you think in hours, not gigabytes - **Predictable** โ€“ no surprises based on bitrate or file size - **Fair** โ€“ longer libraries scale naturally with your business --- ### โš™๏ธ Whatโ€™s included Every stored video is automatically: - Encoded into multiple renditions (ABR) - Optimized for streaming on all devices - Ready for OTT delivery instantly ๐Ÿ‘‰ No additional encoding or processing fees --- ### ๐ŸŒ 2. Streaming Bandwidth (CDN Delivery) ### ๐Ÿ’ก 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 --- ### ๐Ÿ“Š Example - 3 TB streamed โ†’ included (no extra cost) - 8 TB streamed โ†’ 5 TB included + 3 TB billable - Monthly cost: 3,000 GB ร— $0.08 = **$240** --- ### โœ… Why this is competitive - Comparable to major cloud CDNs (AWS, Google) - No contracts or minimum commitments - Significant included usage (worth ~$400/month) --- ### โš™๏ธ Whatโ€™s included - Global content delivery (CDN) - Adaptive bitrate playback - Scalable performance for large audiences ๐Ÿ‘‰ No need to manage CDN vendors or infrastructure --- ### ๐Ÿ”ด 3. Live Streaming (ABR Live Events) ### ๐Ÿ’ก 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) --- ### ๐Ÿ“Š Example - 20 hours streamed โ†’ included (no extra cost) - 50 hours streamed โ†’ 30 included + 20 billable - Monthly cost: 20 ร— $1.50 = **$30** --- ### โš ๏ธ Important - Charges apply **only to ABR live streams (multi-bitrate encoding).** This is an option in your [**Live Event**](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/create-live-events?hsLang=en) form. - Basic/non-ABR streaming does **not incur this charge** --- ### โš™๏ธ Whatโ€™s included Each live event includes: - Real-time multi-bitrate encoding (4 renditions) - Stream packaging for all devices - Reliable, managed streaming infrastructure ๐Ÿ‘‰ No need for external encoders or complex setup --- ### ๐Ÿงพ 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 | --- ### ๐Ÿ’ก Why This Model is Best for our Customers ### โœ… Predictable - Clear included amounts - Straightforward overage pricing ### โœ… Fair - Pay only as you grow - No hidden infrastructure costs ### โœ… All-in-One - Storage + encoding + delivery + live streaming - No need for multiple vendors or complex setups --- ### ๐Ÿš€ Final Thought Endavoโ€™s pricing is designed to scale with your success: - Start with generous included usage - Grow without friction - Pay only for what you actually use --- If you have questions about your usage or want help estimating costs, our team is always happy to help. - [Get Started on Endavo!](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/get-started-on-endavo?hsLang=en) - [Manage Account](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/manage-account?hsLang=en) - [Manage OTT Website and Apps](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/manage-ott-website-and-apps?hsLang=en) - [Manage Content Library](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/manage-content-library?hsLang=en) - [Channels and Playlists](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/channels-and-playlists?hsLang=en) - [Live Events and Live Channels](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/live-events-and-live-channels?hsLang=en) - [Monetize OTT Services](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/monetize-ott-services?hsLang=en) - [Get Reports and Analytics](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/get-reports-and-analytics?hsLang=en) - [Share Your Content](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/share-your-content?hsLang=en) - [Endavo Release Notes Hub](https://help.endavomedia.com/knowledge/endavo-release-notes-hub?hsLang=en) - [About OTT](https://www.endavomedia.com/what-is-ott/) - [Blog](https://www.endavomedia.com/blog/) - [Free Trial](https://www.endavomedia.com/free-trial-offer/) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.endavomedia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Endavo_logo_black-2.png?width=98&height=21&name=Endavo_logo_black-2.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.endavomedia.com/) Endavo Help Center Copyright ยฉ 2026, Endavo Media and Communications, Inc.
