If you are a developer looking to use Mosaic to build an OTT platform, content management system, or any content-oriented application, this is how to get started:
- Explore the platform — Read the Mosaic Overview to understand the architecture and available services
- Try it out — Register for a free trial, then deploy the Media Template to your test environment and explore the UI and APIs without writing any code
- Set up development — Run the quick start command to scaffold a new project:
Alternatively, clone the GitHub repository directly.

Using Individual Services
Axinom offers several managed services (SaaS) that can be used standalone via their APIs — no need to deploy the full Mosaic platform.
For example:
- DRM Service — Multi-DRM content protection (Widevine, PlayReady, FairPlay)
- Encoding Service — Video transcoding and packaging for streaming
Browse all available services in the 'Services' section.
To get started, sign up for the free trial and start using the services right away.
