Following a successful IPO in November 2025, the company is well positioned to accelerate its vision to become the leader in live production technology and continue its expansion globally.

Addressing key industry trends
On its NAB booth (Booth: W1531), Appear will highlight three critical use cases:

1.  Satellite-to-IP migration: built for resilient distribution and contribution
The industry is moving from legacy satellite delivery to IP to address spectrum constraints and improve cost efficiency. The Appear X Platform, a high-capacity, ultra-dense, low-latency media processing and gateway platform, is ideally placed to support this shift, as recently demonstrated by NBCUniversal’s deployment, which delivered a 200% density increase at edge sites while simplifying operations and enabling more flexible IP- and cloud-connected workflows.

2.  REMI and distributed production at scale
Sports leagues, broadcasters and rights holders are increasingly adopting REMI and distributed workflows to reduce costs and increase production capacity for live events coverage. Appear’s technology enables the acquisition, contribution and distribution of video content at scale, ensuring precise timing, synchronisation and reliability across AVC/HEVC and ultra-low-latency JPEG XS workflows.

3.  One operational workflow from edge to cloud
The trend for virtualisation and cloud extends to premium live production use cases. Appear will demonstrate how broadcasters can run live production as one operationally coherent, flexible and resilient workflow across hardware, software and cloud resources, prioritising deterministic performance where it matters and elasticity where it adds the most value.

Alongside the X Platform, NAB will see Appear showcase VX Media Gateway, a cloud-ready, API-driven software platform designed to complement the X Platform by extending media transport and processing into datacentre and cloud environments, enabling customers to build resilient hybrid production infrastructures.
