Pixop

Pixop is a video enhancement company based in Odense, Denmark, that applies proprietary machine learning models to upgrade the picture quality of existing footage. Its stated aim is to let broadcasters and media companies deliver consistently high quality video regardless of the original camera, equipment or settings, without rebuilding their production workflow. The company sells two products. Pixop Prime is a licensed enhancement pipeline that customers run in their own cloud or on premises. It covers both real time work for broadcast and linear playout, and file based work for video on demand, library enhancement and remastering, with one licence that can be redeployed between the two modes. Pixop FILE is a fully managed SaaS platform where users submit single assets or whole archives through a web app or REST API and receive delivery ready output. Pixop works directly with broadcasters, streaming services and media companies, and also through technology partners such as workflow platforms, asset management systems and broadcast infrastructure providers. The company has described a deployment that converts a live HD broadcast signal into a continuous 4K channel. The typical buyer is a broadcaster, streamer or media owner that wants to upconvert HD pipelines to UHD and HDR, restore archive material, or improve incoming feeds of mixed quality. Pixop does not publish prices. There is no pricing page, and the home page directs interested companies to get in touch to discuss their workflow, so cost is set through a conversation with the vendor.
