As we bid farewell to 2023, it’s time to reflect on the remarkable journey we’ve had at Cincopa and share the exciting developments that have shaped our platform. From streamlined content management to integrations that seamlessly fit into your tech stack, we’ve been hard at work all year long to enhance your user experience.
So, let’s dive into the key highlights of 2023 and get a sneak peak into what the future holds.
Streamlined Content Management
We know how much time and effort go into your content, and in today’s fast-paced digital landscape, managing content efficiently is paramount to your business! This past year, we planned, tested and created an abundance of tools that help shape the way content creators, online educators and well just about anyone can smooth out the process of managing their content.
We’ve made things easier for you from where it all begins, content creators and online educators can easily upload videos and attach any links or documents to simplify online training or courses. We launched our AI Transcript Generator to help make the post-production process smoother, and shorter for you.
With content privacy – we mean business! Not only do you get enterprise-grade security here at Cincopa, but we added a few features to help take extra measure against content pirating and all these new fancy video recording software.
We slowly but surely put CincoTube on the map. CincoTube is a versatile platform for creative professionals to manage, share and engage their community with content. It looks very much like YouTube, but made just for your audience with no distractions and no ads anywhere.

This year, we took it a step further and created analytics for our live streamers and content creators.
