If you need a streaming service you have three choices. Rent one and keep paying forever. Build one and wait a year. Or license ours and be on air in weeks.
Lucy TV is not a demo, a template or a deck. It is a working service that we built, that we still run, and that you can download from two app stores this minute. We put your brand on it and hand you the keys.
Closing Vimeo shuts Vimeo On Demand down on 20 November 2026, and stops taking new purchases on 21 September. If your catalogue lives there, you have weeks, not months.
Five surfaces are carrying traffic today. The three that are not are printed here rather than left for you to discover in week six, and Roku stays a separate build we quote for instead of bundling into a promise.
Most of this market will only rent you a seat and bill you for every subscriber you earn. We would rather run it for you under your brand, or hand you the code and get out of your way. Pick whichever suits how your team actually works.

Your brand, your catalogue, your pricing, on our infrastructure. The apps ship under your developer accounts. Nothing technical lands on your desk and no source code changes hands.
IndicativeFrom $18,000 to set up, then monthly
The full codebase for every surface, rebranded, documented and handed over with two months of support. Non-exclusive and perpetual. You own your copy, forever, with nobody to ask.
IndicativeFrom $60,000, once
Not a starter kit. This is the same stack carrying Lucy TV's own audience, handed over with our name taken off it.
The rented platforms in this market charge a monthly fee, then an extra fee per app, then a cut of every subscriber you win. Five years later you have paid for a platform several times over and you still own nothing. Here is the same decision written out.
| Route | Year one | By year five | What you hold at the end |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enterprise streaming SaaS, three apps | ~$60,000 | ~$300,000 | Nothing. The apps stop when you do. |
| Building it yourself | $150,000–$500,000 | plus upkeep | A platform, roughly a year late. |
| Licensing ours | From $60,000 | From $60,000 | Your own copy of the code. |
Rented figures are drawn from the major white-label vendors' published enterprise pricing at three apps. Most of them will not print a price at all. We just did.
The awkward parts, printed here rather than discovered by you in week six.
Twenty minutes on a call, and we will tell you plainly whether this fits. If it does not, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
