See an infringement, issue a takedown, file a claim, investigate or escalate. Every case carries its next action, built in. You never have to leave the platform.

Why the biggest names in sport, media and entertainment trust the FMTS Platform

One login. Every defence.

Watermarking, monitoring, enforcement, blocking and social takedowns, all in one platform, all drawing on the same intelligence. Give your team a single connected view of piracy threats and the actions being taken against them, not a patchwork of disconnected tools and information.

AI that never stops learning.

Piracy keeps evolving. The AI at the core of the platform evolves faster. Trained on 25 years of the deepest verified piracy dataset in the industry, it finds piracy wherever it hides.

Catch the spike before it costs you.

Compare infringements, unique IP addresses and 4K stream captures week on week to spot unusual activity early and act before it hits your revenue.

Every live event, tracked in real-time.

See the status of every protected match, broadcast and premiere as it happens: before, during and after transmission. Find any asset, contract or infringement in seconds.

Hit the biggest sources first.

Focus enforcement where it lands hardest, guided by the sources driving the most piracy right now, not last week.

Reports to suit your needs.

Ask the platform for the report you need in plain language, and get it back ready to share. No filters to configure. No exports. Just the data you need to enable fast action.

Expertise you can't automate.

Our technology is the cornerstone of our solutions, but it's our people who make the difference. The unparalleled expertise of our Customer Success and Operations Teams provides an integral human element to our services and solutions, ensuring you remain one step ahead of the threat.

Always on, around the clock.

Piracy doesn't keep office hours, and neither does the platform. Your content is monitored 24/7, 365 days a year, so protection is continuous rather than reactive, wherever in the world the threat appears.

Inside the FMTS Platform

Homepage — see what matters the moment you log in.

Customise your homepage to surface what matters most: live events, rising infringement trends, your most-targeted content and your headline numbers for the year, all at a glance.

Content — every event, channel and title protected.

Piracy keeps evolving. The AI at the core of the platform evolves faster. Trained on 25 years of the deepest verified piracy dataset in the industry, it finds piracy wherever it hides.

Watermarking — trace piracy back to its source.

Forensic watermarking tells you exactly where re-streaming services are sourcing their content, right down to the individual subscriber or distribution partner. Deprive pirates of their access, and their audience, in real time.

Blocking — cut off the audience, guide them back to you.

Block infringing servers and domains at scale in cooperation with ISPs, then monitor that blocking in real time. Take audiences away from pirate services and steer them back towards legitimate access.

Social media — Find stolen content, wherever it's shared.

Automatically track your content as it appears across platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, X, Instagram and Telegram, and report infringements for takedown as soon as they appear.

Intelligence — Follow the connections, not just the link.

AI-mapped graphs show how infringing sources connect, revealing the bigger operations behind individual leaks. See where the most activity is coming from, so your team knows where to enforce first.

Analytics — The data you need, ready to share.

Download-ready analytics on takedown notices, watermark extractions and streams blocked make stakeholder reporting easy, while deeper analysis helps you get straight to the heart of an incident.
