At NAB 2025 (booth SL13413, Las Vegas Convention Center, April 6-9), Nxtedition will unveil its unified platform. This platform boasts award-winning XR studio control and new advanced AI agents and AI commands. Designed for story-based production environments, Nxtedition's microservices architecture provides core production capabilities and seamless integration with specialized tools.
NAB attendees can experience Nxtedition's fully automated XR mixed reality studio gallery using an XR headset. This demonstrates a groundbreaking approach to live production. The integrated software allows for remote operation and studio location flexibility, expanding remote production capabilities. Broadcasters, especially news channels, are seeking ways to enhance capabilities while maintaining ethical and cost-effective AI usage.
Nxtedition utilizes open-source AI services for tight integration with leading AI applications such as OpenAI Whisper and Meta's Llama 3 large language model—without additional processing fees. This allows for intuitive semantic natural language search. The integration of multiple open-source AI models has created AI agents capable of background tasks. These agents automatically generate social media content titles and descriptions from news stories or video transcriptions. They also suggest story angles, fact-check material, and adapt stories for diverse audiences.
This multi-AI capability operates within Nxtedition's software environment, eliminating the need for additional hardware or cloud/third-party AI service costs. “Today’s expectations are centered around more live content, more news, and more engaging presentations,” said Adam Leah, creative director at Nxtedition. “Broadcasters are exploring ways to enhance their workflows with AI while keeping costs manageable. Nxtedition takes an open-source approach by seamlessly running multiple advanced open source AI models directly on its ecosystem — without adding additional processing fees.”
Nxtedition is a comprehensive production platform supporting up to 4k and HDR resolutions. It includes features essential for busy newsrooms, such as fast turnaround editing. Seamless integration with DaVinci Resolve and API access to other editing platforms are also provided. The open API allows easy integration with other specialized software, recently including MapCreator for dynamic HTML maps and the Melodie production music library service.
“We develop pioneering technology, but our primary goal is to ensure our customers can tell their stories without the technology getting in the way,” Nxtedition’s Leah concluded. “We look forward to showing NAB visitors how our platform adapts to their ways of working, including new concepts — like AI agents and XR control — that they will never have seen before, but will inspire new ideas and drive meaningful change.”
