Broadcasters around the world hold decades of valuable drama, television, documentaries and cultural programming.
Much of that content was produced for older television formats, stored across fragmented archives and created long before mobile-first viewing became the dominant way audiences consume media.
YS Tech’s Archive to Audience Platform helps broadcasters rediscover, prepare and transform that content into modern vertical micro-drama experiences.
Using a combination of artificial intelligence, media processing technology and human editorial workflows, the platform turns legacy archives into content that can be searched, reviewed, adapted and published for new audiences.
The platform connects two traditionally separate processes: archive intelligence and content transformation.
It allows institutions to understand what exists inside their archive before deciding which content should be adapted for modern distribution.
Broadcast archives frequently contain thousands of hours of content with incomplete metadata.
Titles may exist across different formats, storage systems, languages, and cataloguing standards.
YS Tech creates an intelligent archive layer that allows teams to search their content using natural language.
Teams can search using Arabic or English queries such as:
The system can combine existing metadata with AI-generated metadata to make previously difficult-to-discover content searchable.
AI-assisted processing can analyse archive material and generate additional information around each title. Depending on the available source material, the platform can assist with:
This creates a richer catalogue around legacy media without requiring every title to be manually reviewed.
Finding content is only the beginning.
Before archive material is republished, broadcasters need to understand whether the content can actually be used.
The platform can incorporate information relating to:
Governed AI agents can assist teams in finding relevant archive material while respecting the institution’s access permissions and operational controls.
Human approval remains part of the publishing workflow.
Once suitable content has been identified, YS Tech can transform traditional television material into vertical micro-drama formats.
A combination of AI-assisted tools and professional media workflows can be used to convert this material into mobile-first vertical episodes.
The objective is not simply to crop existing footage.
The content is restructured into episodes designed for short-form vertical viewing.
Content transformation should not be treated as a completely automated process.
YS Tech combines AI systems with editorial workflows so broadcasters maintain control over how their material is interpreted and republished.
Archive content can be published through YS Tech’s Vertical Drama Platform or integrated into an existing streaming ecosystem. Broadcasters can launch:
The institution retains control over its content and audience.
Archive to Audience is designed for organizations with substantial historical media collections, including:
An archive should not simply preserve the past.
It can become the foundation for the next generation of content.
YS Tech transforms legacy broadcast libraries into searchable, governed, and mobile-first storytelling experiences.
