The traditional media landscape is in a state of flux. Public broadcasters are increasingly becoming public online media organisations.

• SRG is the first company to provide content and data via a developer portal using public interfaces as a public service. The API data are provided free of charge for non-commercial use.

• Developers are encouraged to integrate existing content and data into their own applications and ecosystems.

• The first MediaVerse API for accessible documents has already been published on the SRG Developer Portal (https://developer.srgssr.ch).

• As part of the project, SWISS TXT will contribute in-depth knowledge of media workflows and technologies currently being used in order to define the relevant workflows for the project. SWISS TXT is involved in the development and implementation of technology.

• SWISS TXT will also be responsible for piloting the MediaVerse technologies in a citizen journalism use case (close cooperation with the Helios project).
