What Giant Worldwide does

Giant Worldwide is a B2B media services provider founded in 2005 (originally as Giant Interactive) and headquartered in New York, with full-service facilities in Los Angeles and Warsaw. The company delivers content preparation, mastering, quality control, digital fulfillment, and subtitle localization to major Hollywood studios, independent film distributors, and streaming platforms, with Preferred Vendor status for Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and PlutoTV. Its operational scale includes over 18 million subtitled minutes processed across 100+ languages and digital delivery to 120+ AVOD, SVOD, and OTT endpoints, supported by TPN-approved, MPA-certified, Dolby Vision and Atmos-certified facilities.

The company's underlying technology stack combines traditional media services workflows with the AI-powered Matchpoint media supply chain platform, acquired via the January 2026 acquisition by Cineverse (NASDAQ: CNVS) for $2 million all-cash. Matchpoint provides automated ingest, frame-by-frame AI-based Video/Audio QC, AI-generated metadata enrichment, automated mastering, and machine-learning-driven delivery optimization, with stated throughput of 15,000+ titles per month and 60-70% efficiency gains versus manual workflows. Giant Worldwide now operates as 'Giant Worldwide, A Matchpoint Company' within the Cineverse Technology Group.

Giant Worldwide generates revenue primarily through managed service contracts with enterprise entertainment customers, including four major Hollywood studios and leading independent distributors such as A24 and Neon. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the majority of revenue is recurring in nature from established service relationships. Following the Cineverse acquisition, management has projected $15-17 million in pro forma revenue and $3.5-4 million in pro forma EBITDA for fiscal year 2027, with $2.5 million in anticipated annualized synergies from Matchpoint platform integration in the first year.
