ASSIMILATE

Assimilate is a post-production company that provides various workflow tools for music videos, movies, and sound. In practice that means building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

It makes the most sense for companies with a specific process to automate. They also list Content, Digital Media, Media and Entertainment, Music and Real Time, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small company team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

ASSIMILATE is based in San Jose, California. Their site is assimilateinc.com.
