# What is Streamly?

> An overview of Streamly — white-label OTT streaming SaaS, operator admin, viewer storefront, and core platform capabilities.

**Streamly** is a **white-label OTT / streaming SaaS platform** that lets you launch a branded movie, TV, and Live TV experience under your own domain — with an operator console, multi-tenant hosting, subscriptions, and storefront themes.

Instead of building catalog, playback admission, billing, branding, and tenant routing from scratch, you deploy Streamly once, connect Supabase, apply a theme, and start filling your catalog.

Built on **Next.js**, **Supabase**, **PostgreSQL**, and **TypeScript**, with an optional **Cloudflare Workers** path via OpenNext. Production reference host: [streamly.watch](https://streamly.watch).

<Warning>
  Streamly does **not** provide copyrighted media. You supply licensed catalog sources, your own uploads, or demo streams for evaluation.
</Warning>

## Why **Streamly** Exists

Launching a streaming product requires more than a player:

* Multi-tenant auth (operator vs viewer) and host-based tenant resolution
* Catalog (movies, TV seasons/episodes, genres, collections, homepage sections)
* Playback sessions, plans, and billing webhooks
* White-label Brand & Experience (colors, logos, fonts, SEO, legal pages)
* Storefront themes that change look without forking routes
* Live TV, ads, and streaming source addons
* Deploy to Node **or** Cloudflare Workers without rewriting the app

**Streamly** ships that stack as one Next.js application.

## One App, Three Surfaces

| Surface               | Purpose                                                             | Typical URL                    |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| **Operator admin**    | Platform control center — users, catalog, themes, plugins, settings | `https://streamly.watch/admin` |
| **Viewer storefront** | Public OTT experience — browse, watch, subscribe, profiles          | Tenant host or platform host   |
| **Tenant dashboard**  | Tenant-owner console (subset of ops)                                | `/dashboard/*`                 |

Admin and dashboard on tenant hosts redirect to the platform host (`NEXT_PUBLIC_PLATFORM_HOST`).
