About Skylark
Skylark is the video platform solution that empowers businesses to build and scale world class streaming platforms, with ultimate flexibility.
Publishing tools were built for written content - video is different.
Skylark was developed by a team that's been creating innovative video streaming products for over 15 years. It’s video first and has the tools that you'll need now and as you grow.
In order to grow and to continue to attract the top talent we are creating a new office in Portugal. We are offering great opportunities for the right people who would like to shape the future of our Portugal office.
Company milestones
- 2021 - Towards the end of 2021 Skylark announced the expansion of its commercial team. Taylor Riese, formerly of Verizon Media Platform joined as our new Chief Revenue Officer and Lasharna Turner, formerly Adobe is our new Head of Marketing. This development is one of latest in a series of moves we have made towards building an impactful commercial strategy since receiving investment from Puma Private Equity in February 2021. With a new focus on Global Sales and Marketing, the industry-leading content platform solution continues to establish itself at the forefront of the digital Product space.
- 2016 - Driven by our clients’ desire for innovative, industry-leading technology, and their increasing need to act fast and evolve, we became frustrated with the regular, unpalatable options of ‘build it’ (a bespoke product every time from a mishmash of a publishing CMS and and OVP) or ‘buy it’ (in the form of an end to end template). In 2016 we launched our Skylark Platform. We developed Skylark with the brief of creating a platform that empowered Ostmodern’s teams to design and build more powerful, flexible and cost-effective products for our clients. This investment has been validated by our having now launched a number of innovative, rich media products on Skylark for customers across the globe to audiences worldwide.
- 2006 - Ostmodern was founded in 2006 and rapidly built a reputation as an expert in rich media products, by delivering innovative product design services for tier one clients in a nascent market. Our focus on digital product design for the broadcast and sports markets put us squarely at the centre of the first wave of the video on demand (VoD) industry: we designed the first generation of VoD products for C4, ITV, BBC, Arsenal FC, Virgin Media and many more.
