OTT & Streaming Piracy Protection

Ayatii helps subscription video and audio platforms find the unauthorized copies of their catalogue, document them and have them removed. We cover pirate streaming sites, restreaming services, social channels and the search results that send viewers to them, so the revenue you invest in content stays with you.

METHODOLOGY

Our OTT Piracy Protection Methodology

Four steps take a platform from an unmapped piracy problem to a repeatable enforcement routine. Each step hands the next one what it needs to act.

Discover

We map where your titles and channels appear without permission: pirate streaming sites, restream portals, social and video-sharing pages, cyberlockers, app stores and the search results that lead to them. The output is a prioritized picture of the sources doing the most harm to your catalogue.

Verify

Automated matching finds candidates, and trained reviewers confirm each one against your rights information before anything is sent. Nothing is reported on a hunch, which keeps notices accurate and protects your relationship with the platforms that receive them.

Enforce

We submit takedown notices and follow-ups to hosts, platforms, registrars and search engines, using the channel each one recognises. Repeat offenders and high-volume sources are escalated rather than handled one link at a time.

Report and Refine

You see what was found, what was removed and what keeps coming back. We use that evidence to adjust monitoring priorities, tighten notice templates and advise on technical measures such as watermarking on your side.

SERVICES

Our OTT & Streaming Piracy Protection Services

Streaming platforms lose control of their catalogue in several ways at once, so the service is built from three parts you can buy together or separately: finding the infringement, removing it and reducing how easily it comes back.

Catalogue Monitoring

Continuous monitoring of the places where pirated copies of your series, films, documentaries and originals surface, matched to the titles and windows you tell us matter most. New releases and premieres can be watched more closely than the back catalogue.

Takedown and Escalation

Evidence-backed notices to hosting providers, platforms, registrars and search engines, tracked until the content is gone or the case is escalated. Where a source ignores notices, we look at the infrastructure behind it for another point of intervention.

Credential and Restream Abuse Response

Pirate services often resell stolen logins or relay a legitimate stream to many viewers. We help identify the listings and restream endpoints involved and give your security and product teams the evidence they need to close the leak at the source.

HOW WE HELP

How Ayatii Works with Your Streaming Team

Piracy touches legal, content, security and product teams. We fit into that structure and keep four things constant, whatever the size of your catalogue.

We Start with Your Rights

Before monitoring begins we agree what you own, which territories and windows apply and who is authorized to act. Clear rights information is what makes notices credible, so we settle it up front and keep it current as your catalogue changes.

Priorities Follow Your Release Calendar

A premiere week and a quiet week do not need the same effort. We set monitoring intensity around your launches, seasonal peaks and the titles that matter most to your business, and adjust it as the schedule moves.

Evidence You Can Rely On

Each case keeps the capture, the match to your title and the record of the notice sent. If a dispute, counter-notice or legal step follows, your team has the file rather than a screenshot folder.

A Direct Line to Your Technical Teams

Findings that point to credential sharing or a leak in your delivery chain are passed to the people who can act on them in plain language, so enforcement and prevention improve together.

DELIVERABLES

What Is Included in OTT Piracy Protection

Protection is only useful if you can see it working. These are the five things your team receives, scaled to the size of your catalogue and how many titles are in scope.

Piracy Landscape Review

A written overview of where your content is being pirated, which source types matter most and where enforcement should concentrate first.

Monitoring Configuration

A documented set of titles, channels, territories and keywords under watch, agreed with you and updated when your catalogue or priorities change.

Verified Infringement Records

For every confirmed case, the captured evidence, the match to your rights information and the location of the infringing copy, held in a consistent format.

Takedown Activity Log

A running record of notices sent, to whom, when and with what outcome, including cases that were escalated or are still open.

Periodic Reports and Recommendations

Regular summaries of findings, removals and recurring sources, with recommendations for the next period covering monitoring focus and technical protections.

ABOUT OTT PIRACY

About OTT and Streaming Piracy

OTT piracy is the unauthorized distribution of content that a streaming platform licenses or produces. It reaches viewers through dedicated pirate sites, restreaming services, social media channels, file-hosting links and unofficial apps, and it competes directly with the paid subscription.

The problem is rarely a single website. Pirate operators copy content from legitimate streams, redistribute it across many hosts and rebuild quickly after a removal. Credential resale, where genuine logins are sold to many users, adds a second route that looks like normal traffic until usage patterns are examined.

Effective protection combines detection, careful verification and removals aimed at the right party: the host, the platform, the registrar or the search engine. Prevention on the platform side, such as watermarking and account controls, reduces how often the same leak repeats.

Common Sources of Streaming Piracy

Pirate streaming sites: dedicated websites that index and embed unauthorized copies of series and films.
Restreaming services: operators that capture a live or on-demand stream and relay it to their own audience.
Social and video-sharing pages: channels, groups and uploads that publish clips or full episodes.
Shared and resold credentials: legitimate accounts offered for sale or distributed beyond their intended use.
Unofficial apps: applications that aggregate pirated streams and distribute them outside official stores.

Because the sources change constantly, protection works best as an ongoing routine rather than a one-off clean-up.

HOW WE SCOPE

How an OTT Protection Programme Is Scoped

Scoping decides what is watched, where and how intensely before any notice is sent. These are the choices we work through with you in the first conversations.

Catalogue and Rights

Which titles, channels and territories are in scope, who holds the rights and who is authorized to act. A focused list of priority titles often delivers more than monitoring everything equally.

Source Types and Priorities

Which kinds of source to cover first: pirate sites, restreams, social pages, marketplaces for credentials or unofficial apps. We recommend an order based on where your content is most exposed.

Monitoring Intensity

How closely each title is watched and for how long. New releases, premieres and live events usually need closer attention than older content, and the setting can change through the year.

Reporting and Escalation

How often you want reports, who receives them and when a case should be escalated to legal counsel or to technical teams for action on your own platform.

WHO IT APPLIES TO

Who Needs OTT & Streaming Piracy Protection

Any business whose revenue depends on controlled access to video or audio can be affected. The groups below ask us for help most often, though the need depends on the value of the content and how easily it can be copied.

Subscription Streaming Platforms

Platforms that sell access to a catalogue lose both subscribers and licensing leverage when the same titles are freely available elsewhere. Monitoring and takedowns protect the value of what they pay to produce or license.

Studios, Producers and Rights Holders

Content owners who license to multiple platforms need a view of piracy across all of them, and a consistent way to act on it, rather than relying on each partner to do it separately.

Regional Broadcasters and Telecom Operators

Operators that bundle streaming into packages face restreaming and credential resale that affect their partners as well as their own revenue, and need evidence they can share.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as OTT or streaming piracy?

It is the unauthorized copying, streaming or distribution of content that a streaming platform produces or licenses. That includes pirate websites, restreamed channels, shared or resold logins, unofficial apps and full episodes uploaded to social platforms.

Can pirated streams really be removed?

Many can. Hosts, platforms and search engines have processes for reporting infringement, and removals are routine when notices are accurate and well evidenced. Some operators reappear, which is why we track repeat sources and escalate them, but sustained enforcement reduces how easily your content can be found.

Do you need access to our platform?

No. Monitoring and takedowns are carried out from the outside using public information and the rights details you provide. If you want help investigating credential abuse or leaks, we will discuss what technical information would be useful.

How do you avoid sending wrong takedown notices?

Automated matches are reviewed by trained staff against your rights information before a notice is sent. We also keep a record of every case so notices can be reviewed or withdrawn if something changes.

How is the service priced?

Pricing depends on the size of the catalogue, the number of titles and territories in scope and how closely you want them monitored. Contact us with a short description of your platform and we will propose a scope.
