All content is available in HD on the platform, which offers viewers both a live and VOD viewing experience online, as well as via the Mech+ app for mobile devices.<\/p>\n<p>Further, Mech+ has partnered with Media16 to provide brand campaigns on the AVOD service and is looking for further sponsorship opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>While Mech+ is predominantly an AVOD service, viewers in the U.K. and U.S. are currently able to subscribe for a yearly fee to watch without ads. The service is available globally in the English language, though some content may be geo-restricted, subject to available rights.<\/p>\n<p>Nick Rees, COO of Mech TV, said: \u201cBuilding a community around the service is also important to us, a place where viewers can interact. It\u2019s early days, but we are seeing a lot of engagement from a very passionate audience who are helping to shape the direction of the channel. New content will be made available every month, and there are some exciting shows in the release schedule, but we are always looking for new acquisitions that fit the brand. Longer-term, the main goal is to be in a position to commission the production of new content.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joe Evea, founder at Media16, said: \u201cWe are delighted to have partnered with Mech+, the launch of which epitomizes the opportunity CTV provides for advertisers to associate with high-quality content and reach a hugely passionate audience in a premium environment that attracts light TV viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tinopolis-backed Mech TV has launched Mech+, a VOD streaming service dedicated to robotics, science and engineering content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":18289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[6278,6279,2608],"class_list":["post-18288","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-mech-tv","tag-mech","tag-tinopolis","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Mech TV Launches VOD Platform - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Mech TV Launches VOD Platform - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Tinopolis-backed Mech TV has launched Mech+, a VOD streaming service dedicated to robotics, science and engineering content.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-06-14T14:59:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/Robot-Wars-mech-tv-0622.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"960\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"580\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/\",\"name\":\"Mech TV Launches VOD Platform - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-06-14T14:59:48+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-06-14T14:59:48+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/mech-tv-launches-vod-platform\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Mech TV Launches VOD Platform\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
