Grass Valley has announced Avora, a new all-in-one live production solution designed to bring the tools needed to create and deliver sophisticated live shows together in one streamlined system. Launching at IBC2026, it looks forward to giving production teams a complete environment to prepare, produce and deliver live content, from switching and graphics to audio, remote guests, content, replay and delivery, as the company has claimed in a statement.

Production resources can be prepared, saved, duplicated and recalled as a complete show. Teams can configure the production around the needs of each show and adapt it as those needs change.

The solution can be used in a wide range of live productions, including sports, live events, venues, education, corporate and enterprise media, regional production and other repeatable workflows. The same system can be configured for different productions, formats and operating models.

“Avora answers a very clear market need”, affirms Jonathan Lyth, Product Director for Live Applications at Grass Valley. “Production teams increasingly need professional capability, operational simplicity and the flexibility to scale around the show. Avora brings the whole live production together in one system, giving teams a simpler way to create, operate and repeat sophisticated live productions”.

Avora supports visual, shot-based production and more traditional program/preset operation. Its web-based user experience also enables multiple production roles to work with the same Avora system from their own browser interfaces where required.

Remote guests can join productions through private invitation links, with low-latency connectivity, mix-minus and talkback built directly into the workflow. Content, graphics and prompting are integrated too, while replay, recording, monitoring, playout and delivery extend Avora beyond production switching into a complete live production environment.
