SymphonyAI Linear Pricing - up to 30% off list
Updated: Oct 12
Nobody buys broadcast revenue software by the quarter, and SymphonyAI Linear Pricing reflects that: the commitment is annual or multi-year, agreed under the Revedia Online master services agreement, with the fees themselves written onto an order form drawn up for your channels and your carriage arrangements. The agreement itself contains no fee schedule - that has been checked. Nor is there anything to look up: symphonyai.com/media/pricing returns a 404, the media products page describes Revedia for Linear TV by capability with no tiers and no starting figure, and the Microsoft commercial marketplace carries one combined Revedia entry with a Contact me control rather than a Linear plan. Stackingo, an authorised SymphonyAI reseller, quotes that order form at up to 30% below SymphonyAI list, with a contractual floor of 10%, across the GCC, UK and Ireland, Europe, Oceania and the US.
What does SymphonyAI Linear Pricing look like at a glance?
It looks like a single negotiated line covering one broadcast estate, and it is quoted rather than listed. Revedia for Linear TV handles the revenue side of broadcast, cable and pay TV - affiliate and carriage arrangements, advertising inventory, subscriber-based revenue and the reconciliation between them - and the scale of those arrangements is what a quotation is built against. The searches that would normally surface a figure have been run and come back empty: no OEM price, no separate marketplace listing for the Linear edition, and no public-sector procurement record that breaks the platform down by edition. One row is therefore the accurate presentation.
Plan | List (per month) | Stackingo | What the line actually covers |
Revedia for Linear TV - broadcast, cable and pay TV edition | On request | Up to 30% below list | Revenue management for linear television: affiliate and carriage arrangements, advertising inventory, subscriber revenue and the reconciliation between them. Scoped against channel count, distribution agreements, territories and the term. Data migration and connectors into traffic and billing systems are quoted as separate lines. |
Broadcasters usually arrive at this purchase through a formal process rather than a product page, which is an advantage worth using. If the platform is going through an RFP or a framework evaluation, the absence of a rate card is not an obstacle - it is an invitation to specify the pricing structure yourself. State in the requirement document that licence, migration and connector work must be quoted as separate lines, that the annual uplift must be capped, and that the discount must be expressed as a range with a floor. Vendors respond to the structure they are asked for. Buyers who leave the structure open receive a blended figure and lose the ability to compare anything.
Comparing the SymphonyAI Linear plans
Work through a realistic estate. A pay TV operator with twenty-two channels, sixty distribution and carriage agreements across four territories, and a decade of revenue history sitting in a legacy system it wants to retire. There is no published tier for that, so the only comparison available is between the ways it can be structured - and structure is where the money moves. A phased migration that retires the legacy system in year two rather than month three changes both the services figure and the risk profile, without touching the licence. These are the variables that separate one version of the SymphonyAI Linear plans from another:
Channels and carriage agreements. The count of channels and of distribution or affiliate agreements is the principal driver. Two operators with identical revenue can price very differently if one carries three times the agreements.
Territories and regulatory scope. Multi-territory operations bring reporting obligations that have to be modelled. State them at the outset rather than discovering them during implementation, when they become change requests.
Legacy migration approach. Retiring an incumbent revenue system in one cut costs more and risks more than a phased parallel run. Price both approaches and choose on risk appetite, not on the first proposal offered.
Term, uplift cap and exit. Broadcast contracts run long. Cap the annual uplift, agree what happens at renewal, and settle the data extraction terms before signature rather than at the point you might want to leave.
None of those four variables appears on any published page, which is precisely why they should appear in your requirement document. A vendor asked to quote three structures will quote three structures; a vendor asked simply for a price will supply one, shaped to suit itself. Stackingo prepares those variants as part of its process and applies its position of up to 30% below SymphonyAI list, with a contractual floor of 10%, to each - so the decision between a fast migration and a phased one can be made by the people who will run it, rather than by whichever option happened to be presented first.
How are SymphonyAI Linear licenses counted?
The mistake to avoid is counting people. Broadcast revenue teams are small relative to the money they manage, and a business case built on a per-analyst rate will be wrong by an order of magnitude in either direction. SymphonyAI Linear licenses are scoped to the estate rather than to the desk: the channels, the carriage and affiliate agreements, the territories and the volume of revenue records the platform is asked to reconcile. Bringing three more analysts onto the system changes nothing commercially. Acquiring a channel portfolio, or taking on distribution in a new territory, might.
That makes the scope clause the important paragraph in the whole document. Ask for the boundary in countable terms - how many channels, how many agreements, which territories - and for a defined mechanism if you exceed it, priced at the outset. Broadcasters consolidate and divest more often than most software contracts assume, and a licence written against today's portfolio without an expansion mechanism converts every corporate transaction into an unplanned negotiation. Stackingo raises that mechanism at quotation stage, when it is still a drafting question, rather than after the acquisition has completed and the leverage has moved.
What is a SymphonyAI Linear subscription and how does it work?
Consider what a year of it actually looks like. A twenty-two channel operator signs an order form for a thirty-six month term. Months one to six are spent mapping carriage agreements and loading history from the legacy system; months seven to nine run the two systems in parallel while the numbers are reconciled; the legacy platform is retired somewhere around month ten. From that point the subscription is doing the work it was bought for, which means roughly twenty-six of the thirty-six months deliver full value. A SymphonyAI Linear subscription is the right to run the platform for the whole term - the ramp is real, and it should be reflected in how the business case is written.
It should also be reflected in the commercials. If the platform delivers nothing for the first three quarters, argue for the term to start at go-live rather than at signature, or for the ramp period to be priced differently. That is a reasonable request on a multi-year agreement and it is far easier to obtain before signature than after. The other clause to settle in the same conversation is the annual uplift: on a thirty-six month contract an uncapped increase quietly recovers whatever concession was granted at the start, and broadcast agreements are long enough for that to matter twice over.
What should a SymphonyAI Linear reseller do for you?
The error is to expect a reseller to produce a lower headline and to judge it on that alone. The headline is the least durable part of the arrangement. What a SymphonyAI Linear reseller should do is make the whole agreement legible and keep it that way: separate the licence from the migration, surface the uplift clause before signature, state its discount as a ceiling and a floor rather than a single flattering number, and take responsibility for the renewal instead of leaving it to auto-extend. Those are commitments you can hold someone to; a headline discount granted once is not.
There is a second thing worth demanding, particularly in broadcast, which is continuity through a formal procurement. If the purchase is going through an RFP, a framework or a group procurement function, the reseller should be able to supply the documentation that process requires - itemised quotations, entity and currency detail, tax treatment - without three rounds of clarification. Stackingo does that across the GCC, UK and Ireland, Europe, Oceania and the US, holds its position of up to 30% below SymphonyAI list with a floor of 10% for the whole term, and supplies genuine SymphonyAI licensing so nothing about entitlement or support changes.
How to buy SymphonyAI Linear without paying list
Run it as a procurement exercise rather than a purchase. Begin by writing the specification: channel count, carriage and affiliate agreements, territories, the legacy system to be retired and the migration approach you prefer. Then set the pricing structure in the requirement itself - separate lines, capped uplift, a discount expressed as a range with a floor, and terms for data extraction at exit. Then ask for the estate to be quoted in more than one structure. Only after all of that is the discount conversation worth having, because a percentage applied to a blended figure tells you nothing about what you are actually buying.
The reason this sequence works is that it removes the vendor's information advantage on a product with no public price. You cannot benchmark against a rate card that does not exist, but you can absolutely benchmark two structures against each other. Stackingo runs that process on your behalf, returns the variants together with the lines separated, and writes the discount of up to 30% below SymphonyAI list with a contractual floor of 10% into the quotation itself. The saving comes from the structure as much as from the percentage, which is why the order of those steps matters more than the negotiation at the end of them.
Does a SymphonyAI partner get you a better price?
Compare how this category charges with how its neighbours do. Horizontal business software publishes a per-seat rate, and buying through a partner shifts a known number by a known margin. Broadcast revenue platforms do not work that way: there is no rate to shift, the figure is constructed per customer, and two comparable operators can receive materially different proposals depending on how each articulated its requirement. In that environment a SymphonyAI partner is not competing on margin off a list price. It is competing on how well it shapes the requirement before the vendor prices it.
That is why the question to ask is not what discount you will get, but what the partner will do before the number is written. Will it separate the lines, will it insist on the uplift cap, will it get more than one structure quoted, and will it commit to a floor rather than a ceiling alone. Stackingo's position is up to 30% below SymphonyAI list and never less than 10%, held for the duration of the term rather than the first year. The product, the entitlement and the support path are unchanged from a direct purchase; what changes is the shape of the agreement around them.
Who is an authorised SymphonyAI Linear distributor?
In practice, it is the party that carries the transaction from requirement to invoice. The sequence runs like this: the requirement is agreed with the broadcaster, the distributor scopes it against the SymphonyAI Linear edition, obtains and structures the vendor quotation, applies its discount position, issues an itemised document in the contracting entity and currency the group requires, handles the purchase order and tax mechanics, and then holds the renewal date. An authorised SymphonyAI Linear distributor is authorised in the sense that the licensing it supplies is genuine vendor licensing, with entitlement, support and upgrade rights flowing exactly as they would direct.
For broadcast groups, the step that usually matters most is the fourth one. Channels are frequently held in different legal entities across different territories, and the entity that signs is rarely the entity that uses the platform. Getting that settled inside the quotation rather than after signature removes weeks from a procurement cycle and prevents the awkward second conversation with the tax team. Stackingo contracts and invoices across the GCC, UK and Ireland, Europe, Oceania and the US, applying the same discount of up to 30% below list, floor 10%, whichever entity ends up holding the agreement.
How much does SymphonyAI Linear cost outside the US?
Exactly what it costs inside it, in the sense that matters: the same quote-only arrangement applies in every market, because SymphonyAI publishes no rate card anywhere. What changes outside the US is the paperwork - the contracting entity, the invoicing currency and the tax treatment - rather than the commercial position. The table sets out where Stackingo contracts, invoices and supports the licence, and confirms the discount is identical throughout. For broadcasters running channels across several territories, the sensible discipline is to settle the SymphonyAI Linear cost in one reporting currency at signature and fix the rate for the term rather than revisit it each year.

Frequently asked questions
Is there any published price for Revedia for Linear TV?
None. The media products page describes the Linear edition by capability with no tiers and no starting figure, symphonyai.com/media/pricing returns a 404, the master services agreement contains no fee schedule, and there is no separate marketplace listing for the edition. Public-sector procurement records do not break the platform down by edition either. Stackingo quotes the resulting order form at up to 30% below SymphonyAI list, with a contractual floor of 10%.
What should a broadcaster put in an RFP for this?
Channel count, carriage and affiliate agreements, territories, the legacy system to be retired and the migration approach - plus the pricing structure you require: separate lines, a capped annual uplift, a discount stated as a range with a floor, and exit data extraction terms. Stackingo responds to that structure with its up to 30% below list and 10% floor already applied to the SymphonyAI licence lines.
Can the term start at go-live rather than at signature?
It is a reasonable thing to ask for and considerably easier to secure before signature than after. Broadcast migrations often take three quarters before the platform is doing useful work, so a term measured from go-live protects the value of the commitment. Whichever way it is agreed, Stackingo's discount of up to 30% below SymphonyAI list, floor 10%, applies for the whole term rather than year one.
Does the Linear edition cost the same as the Digital one?
There is no way to know from public sources, because no directory, marketplace or vendor page splits Revedia pricing by edition - the single figure in circulation refers to the platform generically. Each edition is quoted against its own estate. What is constant is Stackingo's position: up to 30% below SymphonyAI list, never less than 10%, on either edition.
Is migration from our legacy revenue system included?
Only where the order form says so. Loading a decade of revenue history, building connectors into traffic and billing systems and running a parallel reconciliation are project lines rather than subscription lines, and folding them into the licence turns a one-off cost into a permanent one. Ask for them itemised and phased, then apply Stackingo's up to 30% below list, floor 10%, to the licence.
Why are all the currency figures shown as on request?
Because SymphonyAI publishes no figure in any market, so there is nothing to convert into AED, SAR, QAR, GBP, EUR, SEK, AUD, NZD or USD. The commercial position is what stays constant across markets: up to 30% below SymphonyAI list with a contractual floor of 10%. Fix the exchange rate at signature so a multi-year broadcast agreement does not move with the market.
What happens to the licence if we acquire more channels?
That depends on the expansion mechanism in your order form, which is why it should be priced at the outset rather than left open. A licence scoped to today's channel count with no agreed mechanism turns every acquisition into an unplanned negotiation. Stackingo's discount of up to 30% below list, with a 10% floor, applies to the original scope and to the agreed expansion lines alike.
