What’s new
Two platforms became one: the Mediawide Hub
The Mediawide Creative Platform and the Mediawide Video Platform are now one product. This page sets out what has changed, what is new, and what happens to work you already have with us.

Then and now
One log-in, one design, one brand, every format.
| Before | Now, in the Mediawide Hub | |
|---|---|---|
| Products | Two platforms, two log-ins, two sets of templates | One platform with two studios: Creative Studio for campaigns and Personalized Studio for one-to-one video |
| Formats | Display and print in one platform; personalized video in the other | One design outputs an HTML5 banner, a still, an MP4, a press-ready PDF and a personalized video. Add a size in seconds; change a headline once and it changes in every size |
| Brand | Colours and fonts set template by template | Brand Center: logos, palette, fonts, text styles, voice, music and guardrails, applied in every editor and checked before export |
| AI | AI copy and image help | AI design from a brief, AI images and video, scripts and hooks, voiceover, video presenters, A/B variations, and an assistant that changes the design you already have |
| Personalized video | Animated pages built project by project | Built in the same editor as everything else: charts of each customer’s own figures, scenes only for the customers they apply to, calculators, forms, narration and motion styles |
| Security | A link per video | A private, signed link per customer that expires; no personal data in the address; a recorded reason for every look at a customer’s data; retention and suppression controls |
| Print and InDesign | InDesign Server templates set up by our team | Design print at physical size and export a press-ready PDF. On request: import IDML, export an InDesign package, and check templates out to InDesign and back in |
| Assets | A separate DAM log-in | Your asset library inside the Hub; pictures follow the asset’s latest version unless you pin one |
| Approvals | Approval workflow | Approvals, change requests and the Creative Lifecycle: tasks, proof rounds and multi-level review, with one list of what is waiting for you |
| Publishing | Download, then upload | Publish to your social accounts and schedule on a calendar, push to your DAM, or export |
| Integrations | Built project by project | CSV, Excel, JSON, XML or API data; single sign-on; and an MCP server so AI assistants such as Claude can build and edit in the Hub |
| Buying | Separate licences and add-ons | One plan with everything in it, priced by seat; Personalized Video credits and AI credits in packs; a 7-day free trial with no card |
Creative Studio
Design once. Export every size, format and language.
The Creative Platform’s templates and jobs now live in Creative Studio, rebuilt around one design that every format comes from.
- One template, every size: banners, social, video and print, with safe zones and IAB checks
- Locked templates: Designers build, Producers fill in, Reviewers approve
- Batches from a spreadsheet or product feed, in every size at once
- AI video ads from a product page, in vertical, square and landscape
- Translation, plus right-to-left and non-Latin scripts
- Brand compliance checked before anything is exported
Every size
300×250, 728×90, 1080×1080, 1080×1920, A4 and more
Every format
HTML5 banner, still, MP4, print PDF
Every channel
Ad server, social accounts, DAM or printer
On brand
Built on your Brand Center
1. Connect data
CSV, Excel, JSON, XML or API
2. Design once
Charts, conditions, narration, calculators, forms
3. Send signed links
Through your own email or SMS
4. See what happened
Views, completions and clicks; people kept apart from bots
Personalized Studio
Every customer gets their own video, from their own data.
Personalized Studio replaces the Video Platform. Statements, bills, quotes, renewals and welcomes become a short video each customer can watch, explore and act on.
- Charts of the customer’s own figures: bars, lines, donuts, gauges and 3D, revealed on the timeline
- Scenes that only appear for the customers they apply to
- Calculators, choices and forms inside the video, with calls to action to the websites you allow
- Narration and an optional video presenter, in each customer’s own details
- Captions, transcript, keyboard and touch controls; plays on any phone
- Embed videos on your own website, limited to the sites you name
Underneath both studios
Brand Center
Logos, colours, fonts, text styles, voice, music and guardrails in one place. The colour picker only offers your palette.
AI that follows your brand
Generate a design from a brief, write scripts and hooks, make images and video clips, and describe a change instead of redoing it. One balance of AI credits pays for all of it.
Approvals and lifecycle
Send for sign-off, request changes, run proof rounds and multi-level review. Exports can wait for approval.
Asset library
Your DAM opens inside the Hub. Search every site, place pictures by asset, and keep them on the latest version.
InDesign and print
Press-ready PDF with bleed and trim marks, Adobe InDesign Server rendering, and on request IDML import, export and InDesign check-out.
AI assistants (MCP)
Connect Claude or another assistant: it can build templates on your brand, make jobs, check compliance and export, within your permissions.
Recent updates
The Hub is updated every week. Highlights from October 2026:
- Charts for personalized video: style presets, gauges, horizontal and combination charts, true 3D, and reveals on the timeline
- Video-style motion: motion styles for a whole design, scene transitions, a slow camera move, kinetic text, living backgrounds and background films
- Personalized player on phones: touch controls, sound on iPhone, and the opening frame shown at once
- Embed on your website: name the websites a campaign’s videos may appear on
- InDesign round trip (on request): import IDML and InDesign packages, export an InDesign package, and check templates and jobs out to InDesign and back in, with version history
- Asset library in the Hub: your DAM opens inside the Hub, and pictures follow the asset’s current version
- Brand compliance before export: check templates, jobs and unsaved designs without exporting
- Bring your videos across: a Video Platform export becomes a draft Personalized Studio template
- Faster editing: group, multi-select, Alt-drag to copy, and copy changes to every size in one click
- Web fonts: upload TTF or OTF fonts, converted and trimmed for fast loading
- Light and dark theme that follows your computer
- Simpler buying: one plan with everything in it, and a 7-day free trial with no card

If you already use Mediawide
Where do I log in now?
At hub.mediawide.com. Your account manager will tell you when your organisation has moved; until then, your current log-in keeps working.
What happens to my templates and campaigns?
Creative Platform templates and jobs move into Creative Studio. Video Platform videos can be imported as draft Personalized Studio templates, which you then publish. We agree the timing with you.
Do I need a new contract?
No. Existing contracts continue until renewal. At renewal we show you the equivalent Hub plan.
Will links I have already sent keep working?
Yes, until they expire. New campaigns use Personalized Studio’s signed links.
Is my customers’ data handled differently?
Personalized Studio adds controls: signed, expiring links with no personal data in the address, a recorded reason for every look at a customer’s data, and retention and suppression settings for each campaign.
Who do I ask?
Your account manager, or Mediawide Support.
