Protecting premium content means watching every corner of the piracy landscape at once, and acting fast enough to stay ahead of it. Until now, that has meant stitching together separate tools, separate logins and separate reports, and hoping nothing slips through the gaps.
The FMTS Platform brings it all into one place: AI-powered piracy intelligence, analysis, and action behind a single login, available whenever you need it, 24x7x365. Watermarking, monitoring, enforcement, blocking, and social media takedowns all in one location, protecting your content from first detection to final takedown without having to switch tools to piece together the full picture.
At the heart of the platform is AI trained on the deepest, most verified piracy dataset in the industry. For 25 years, Friend MTS has captured more verified piracy data across sport and media than anyone else in the industry. Now, the FMTS Platform uses this experience to search new ground every day, surfacing patterns in places nobody has told it to look.
Piracy keeps evolving. Our AI evolves faster.
What the platform brings together
From the moment you log in, you see what is live, what is trending and where the threat is coming from. Your homepage surfaces what needs your attention straight away: live events, rising infringement trends, your most-targeted content and your headline numbers for the year, all at a glance.
Underneath this sits the full picture. Track the status of every protected match, broadcast, premiere and on-demand title in real time, so you know your content is covered before, during and after transmission. Forensic watermarking traces piracy back to its source, right down to the individual subscriber or distribution partner, so you can cut off pirates and their audience as it happens. Social media monitoring follows your content as it appears on platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, X, Instagram and Telegram, and reports infringing content for takedown as soon as it shows up.
The platform’s AI not only maps the individual links, but the connections behind them. This reveals how infringing sources connect and exposes the bigger operations behind single leaks, so your team always knows where to take enforcement action first. Blocking operates at scale in cooperation with internet service providers to cut off pirate audiences and guide them back to legitimate access. And when you need to report on any of it, download-ready analytics on takedown notices, watermark extractions and streams blocked are ready to share with stakeholders in seconds.
Every case carries its next action, built in. See an infringement, issue a takedown, file a claim, investigate or escalate, all without leaving the platform.
Five things that make the Friend MTS Platform different
It is always on, 24/7/365. It monitors your content around the clock, every day of the year, so your protection is continuous rather than reactive.
It is highly intelligent. Its AI is trained on 25 years of the deepest verified piracy dataset in the industry, searching new ground and providing detailed insights and guidance for you to act on.
It connects intelligence with action. Detection, investigation and enforcement sit in the same workflow, so the next step is there when you need it rather than living in another system.
It is built around you. Ask questions in plain language and get answers in seconds, while dashboards and reports adapt to how your team actually works.
It is built for what’s next. Piracy keeps changing, and the platform’s AI is built to evolve faster, ready for whatever comes next.
The scale behind the FMTS Platform
Today FMTS services protect more than $120bn of media rights and over 100 million apps and devices worldwide. We capture and process more than 26,000 hours of video content every day, over three years’ worth, daily. We detect over half a million separate instances of piracy each month and send close to two million takedown notices on average in the same period. When a new threat appears, we map the full path and identify the underlying pirate infrastructure in as little as 50 milliseconds.
That scale, and the AI behind it, is why the biggest names in sport, media and entertainment already trust Friend MTS to protect their content. And because the platform is built to turn anti-piracy into a revenue-generating strategy, every signal it surfaces is there to help you win back revenue, not simply log a problem.
Piracy is changing faster than ever, every single day. The FMTS Platform is built to change with it.
One platform. Every signal. AI-driven action.
