FreeCast Inc. (NASDAQ: CAST) announced agreements with Via One Technologies subsidiaries, including Assist Wireless and enTouch Wireless, to utilize FreeCast's Platform-as-a-Service ecosystem for streaming media services.
The Via One affiliates collectively serve more than 385,000 mobile wireless customers through Lifeline, prepaid, and mobile service distribution channels across multiple U.S. markets. Under the agreements, Assist Wireless and enTouch Wireless will offer branded video services to their customers powered by FreeCast's technology.
The wireless platforms will use FreeCast's streaming aggregation infrastructure, content management systems, consumer viewing interfaces, and monetization technologies to support branded streaming experiences across mobile devices and connected televisions.
"Our platform initiatives continue to focus on helping telecommunications and wireless providers participate more directly in the evolving streaming media economy," said William Mobley, CEO of FreeCast. "Mobile carriers already maintain direct consumer relationships, billing infrastructure, and device reach."

The platform supports deployment across smartphones, tablets, connected televisions, web browsers, and hybrid broadband environments while allowing partners to maintain their own branding and subscriber relationships.
