Case Study: Aviate achieves 5x approval throughput and rapid, secure video delivery with Aspera

Aspera Platform Powers Aviate’s Breakthrough Video Asset Solution

Aviate, a Santa Monica–based creative services firm, set out to replace a time- and cost-intensive manual process of shipping and reviewing high‑definition video tapes for ad campaigns. Agencies and hundreds of dealers faced long delays and productivity bottlenecks, so Aviate needed a secure, high‑speed way for dealers to browse, order, approve and download broadcast‑quality video from a web application.

Aviate built its video asset platform on Aspera’s FASP™ transport—embedding Aspera Connect Server and the Aspera Embedded Client into its cloud‑deployed web app and using Aspera’s SDK/APIs for seamless integration. The solution launched in weeks, not months, and enabled more than 600 dealers to transfer terabytes monthly, eliminated approval bottlenecks, and delivered a five‑fold increase in throughput (about 70–80 approvals/orders per week), with downloads completing in minutes and clear scalability for rapid growth.
