Frequency Networks, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 2010 and operates with approximately 90 employees, reporting $13.0M in revenue as of 2025. The company functions as a tier 2 media tech buyer specializing in video processing and playout. It is a cloud-based software company that provides a platform for the creation, distribution, and monetization of linear streaming television channels. Headquartered in Los Angeles, the company enables content owners, broadcasters, and media brands to launch Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV (FAST) channels, as well as OTT and Connected TV (CTV) services. Its Frequency Studio platform automates complex broadcast workflows, including ingestion, scheduling, and playout, allowing users to manage professional-grade 24/7 linear networks within a SaaS environment.
Frequency defined its "Intelligent Channel" at IBC2026 on September 2, 2026, demonstrating how integrating intelligence across channel workflows and employing advertising innovation empowers content owners to build more profitable streaming businesses. The company previously announced on August 27, 2026, that it would use IBC 2026 in Amsterdam (Sept. 11-14) to showcase its Studio platform, which combines automation programming tools and advanced advertising features to enhance efficiency and revenue for streaming channel owners. Earlier, on August 7, 2026, James Smith, who leads monetization at Frequency, presented data in a new podcast challenging the notion that increased ad load necessarily equates to higher revenue. On July 13, 2026, Chief Revenue Officer Jon Cohen suggested that innovative advertising formats, such as in-scene ads, can generate new revenue opportunities and improve the viewer experience as the FAST market matures.
