What Uno TV does

Uno TV is a privately held digital news media platform operated by AMX Contenido S.A. de C.V., headquartered at Plaza Carso in Mexico City. Founded in 2008, the platform delivers Spanish-language news coverage across more than 25 editorial verticals — including Nacional, Internacional, Deportes, Entretenimiento, Salud, Clima, Ciencia y Tecnología, Negocios, and Cultura — to Spanish-speaking audiences in Mexico and, via a dedicated Uno TV US section, to the Hispanic diaspora in the United States. The product surface comprises a web-based news portal with live streaming ('EN VIVO') capability, opinion columns from named Mexican journalists, video distribution on YouTube, and an SMS-based breaking-news subscription service delivered through the Telcel mobile network via shortcode 2222.

The platform's technology stack is a conventional web CMS augmented by cookie-based user tracking, preference and analytics cookies, and third-party tracking pixels used for audience segmentation and targeted advertising. Content is augmented through syndication agreements with international wire services and publishers including AFP, Reuters, Europa Press, and The New York Times. No mobile app is published, and no proprietary AI/ML capabilities are disclosed.

Monetization is primarily through digital advertising (display ads, sponsored content, and audience-segmented targeted advertising), supplemented by free SMS news alerts distributed through the Telcel partnership. Content is freely accessible to consumers with no disclosed paywall or premium tier; pricing details are not publicly available and revenue figures are not disclosed. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via website, mobile web, social channels, and the Telcel SMS channel.
