Displayer

Digital signage platforms for networks that need evidence

A platform is more than a media player with a login. It is the content library, the schedule, the delivery, the permissions and the record of what happened, all governed in one place.

The seven parts of the platform

Screens

Every screen is a row with a name, a location, a group, an orientation and a resolution. Pairing takes one URL and six digits, on any browser, Android, Chrome or Windows device.

Playlists

Ordered items with a duration each: image, video, web page, menu board, notice, ticker. Reorder by dragging, and the change reaches the wall on the next check in.

Schedules

A weekly grid for the normal week, dayparts for the trading day, and dated campaigns that sit on top for the weeks they run. A screen without a scheduled item falls back to its default playlist rather than going black.

Templates

Layout zones for main content, sidebar, ticker and clock, holding your type and your colours. A template is made once and reused by every location, so a network stays on brand without a designer in every store.

Groups and locations

Tag a screen by region, brand or venue, then schedule against the tag. One action reaches every screen carrying it, which is the difference between running 4 screens and running 400.

Proof of play

Each player reports what it rendered and when, and returns a periodic screenshot. The record is exportable, which makes it usable in campaign reporting. See proof of play.

Roles and approvals

Viewer, editor, approver and admin, scoped by location. A group can require approval before published content reaches it, so a mistake stops at one screen.

What this platform does that a media player with a login does not

  • It answers the question a manager actually asks, which is whether the screen is right now
  • It survives a bad connection, because the player keeps its schedule and media on the device
  • It scales by tag, not by clicking through a list of screens one at a time
  • It limits who can publish where, before a wrong price reaches every store
  • It exports, so the evidence can leave the platform and land in a report

Fits what you already run

  • API and webhooks on the Network plan, so screens and content follow your own systems
  • Web page items, which means an existing dashboard or menu system can be shown as it is
  • Single sign-on with SAML, so access follows your directory
  • CSV export of play records for reporting tools
  • Data residency, so the region your media sits in is a choice, not a surprise

Try the platform rendering a screen

The screen builder on this page runs a real playlist loop in your browser: items advance on their own durations, the ticker scrolls, the clock is live, and the schedule strip shows the same playlist on a weekly grid.

Venue

Orientation

Layout

Weekly schedule
  • Venue: restaurant, retail store, clinic, gym, office or school
  • Orientation: landscape 16:9 or portrait 9:16
  • Layout: full bleed, main plus sidebar, or a menu board in three columns
  • Content: your business name and three short lines, prefilled for the venue you picked

The schedule strip underneath shows the same playlist placed on a weekly grid, which is exactly what the schedule view does inside the product.

Run one screen on it this week

Pair one screen, schedule one playlist, and read the play record in the morning. That is enough to judge a platform.
