What we build

Everything a Roku channel needs to get certified.

Roku is not a phone with a bigger screen. Focus has to land where the viewer expects, every screen has to work from ten feet away, and the store review is stricter than Google's.

Live TV & VOD channels

Channel grids, categories, continue watching, and an inline player with the trick-play controls Roku viewers expect from the remote.

Subscription tiers

Free, ad-supported and paid tiers through Roku Pay, with entitlement checks that survive a device reset.

Remote content control

The channel reads a JSON feed you control, so adding or removing streams never needs a new store submission.

Admin panel included

A web panel for managing channels, categories, artwork and tiers, built alongside the channel rather than sold separately.

Certification pass

Deep linking, trick play, closed captions, performance budgets and the content-rating paperwork prepared before submission.

Performance on old hardware

Tested on the cheap Roku sticks your audience actually owns, where a careless SceneGraph layout drops frames immediately.

Choose a design

Four channel layouts.

Pick the structure that fits your catalogue. Each one is a working build, skinned in your brand.

Layout 01

Top menu with rows

Category menu across the top, content rows beneath. The most familiar Roku pattern.

Layout 02

Sidebar with grid

Icon sidebar with a poster grid. Best for large channel counts.

Layout 03

Featured hero

One large featured stream with rails below. Best for live events.

Layout 04

Category grid

Flat grid of category tiles. Simplest to navigate with a remote.

How the build runs

From playlist to published channel.

01

Scope call

We look at your streams, your catalogue size and how you want to charge, then send a written scope with a fixed price.

02

Screens & focus map

Every screen designed at ten-foot scale, with the focus path drawn out — where the remote goes from each tile, and what happens at the edges.

03

Build & feed

Weekly sideloaded builds you can install on your own Roku, plus the admin panel and JSON feed going in alongside.

04

Device testing

Tested on low-end sticks as well as current players, because certification measures load time on the slowest supported hardware.

05

Certification & publish

Submitted through your own Roku developer account. We handle the review queries and the content rating.

Why Roku costs more than an app.

A Roku channel is not a phone app with a bigger layout. It is a different language, a different UI framework, a stricter certification process, and hardware that punishes careless code.

Before you send a brief

Questions we get asked.

Why is a Roku channel ten times the price of a phone app?

Different language, different UI framework, and a certification process that fails builds for things a phone store never checks — load time on old hardware, focus behaviour, caption support, deep linking. It is a longer build with a stricter gate at the end, and the admin panel is included.

Can I change channels without a new submission?

Yes. The channel reads a JSON feed you control through the admin panel, so adding, removing or reordering streams is instant.

Do you publish under my account?

Always. The channel belongs to your Roku developer account, along with the reviews and any Roku Pay revenue.

Can you take over an existing channel?

Yes. Send the source or the channel ID and we will audit it first, then quote the fix or the rebuild.

What about Android TV and Fire TV?

Same content, different build. Android TV shares a lot with your Android app, so it is usually cheaper than Roku when ordered alongside one.
