Amagi modernises broadcasting operations for AccuWeather
April 19, 2026
Amagi, the agentic industry cloud platform for unified broadcast, streaming, and monetisation, has announced that AccuWeather, a source of weather forecasts and warnings, has successfully completed a modernisation of its broadcast ecosystem as part of an expanded engagement. AccuWeather now moves from traditional broadcast infrastructure to a cloud-based, internet-driven system that manages both linear TV and streaming in one place. This eliminates separate workflows, making distribution more efficient, flexible, and easier to scale across platforms.
The transformation, anchored at Amagi’s state-of-the-art Master Control Room (MCR) in Princeton, N.J. brings both the technology stack and managed operations under a single provider. This enables AccuWeather to achieve a high level of agility and rapid customisation of channel.
“Managed Services is at the heart of this engagement,” said Srinivasan KA, Co-founder and President – Global Business, Amagi. “Our role is not just to provide cloud playout technology, but to actively operate, monitor, and optimise mission-critical broadcast environments with a unified approach. As the entire solution is based on Amagi’s tech stack and managed services, customisations are seamless and faster. With our Princeton MCR overseeing Linear and FAST channels, AccuWeather gains both cloud-native agility and broadcast-grade operational assurance—a combination that is critical, but rare in the market.”
A Strategic Pivot for Unified Workflows
The expanded engagement builds on a successful initiative launched in 2021, when AccuWeather introduced its FAST channels. Through Amagi’s Managed Services model, AccuWeather receives:
● Enhanced Distribution Efficiency: Transition to a fully IP-based distribution model to improve reliability and reduced costs.
● Optimised Regionalisation at Scale: Advanced sub-feed capabilities enable efficient management of multiple regional feeds with customised graphics.
● Real-Time Agility for Live Events: Faster workflows allowing for instant delivery of breaking news and critical weather updates across all platforms.
● Accelerated Innovation Cycles: A unified technology approach enables quicker deployment of new features and workflow enhancements.
“At AccuWeather, delivering timely continuous weather content, forecasts and severe weather coverage requires a modern, scalable distribution infrastructure, which is why we partnered with Amagi,” commentedHelen Swenson, Chief Content Officer at AccuWeather. “By consolidating our linear and OTT distribution on Amagi’s platform, we are simplifying operations and improving efficiency enabling our team to focus on high-quality content and delivering forecasts with proven Superior Accuracy our audiences trust.”
