What changes when it is media & entertainment
Audit logging and roles are cheap on day one and expensive to retrofit. Any system touching money or customer data needs both, whether or not anyone asks at kickoff.
In media & entertainment, rights, attribution and factual accuracy are reputational risks before they are legal ones. That single fact reshapes how custom software development has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is subtitling and localisation, usually integrated against CMS. Integration comes before intelligence. A model that cannot reach your systems of record is a demo with good manners.
Deployed across regulated and unregulated sectors, with audit trails where the regulator expects them. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

Questions from this sector
Can AI generate our content?
It can draft and assist, and a human should always own what publishes. Our media work is weighted towards operations, tagging, localisation, search, where the return is clearer and the risk lower.
How do you handle rights?
Provenance tracking on generated assets and clear separation between licensed and generated material, so rights questions have an answer on file.
Custom or off-the-shelf?
Off-the-shelf whenever it fits. It is cheaper to buy and someone else maintains it. Custom earns its cost when your process is genuinely a differentiator, or when configuring a product would cost more than building the thing.
How much does custom software cost?
Driven by user roles, integration count and data complexity rather than by feature list length. We scope against a process map, which is why our estimates hold better than a number given on a first call.
Who owns the software?
You do, source, IP and infrastructure, transferred on completion. It runs in your accounts and keeps running without us.
