The Platform

Dependable, always-current signage — with a one-click emergency takeover built in.

Most signage tools bolt emergency alerting on as a premium add-on and price you per screen. Vital Displays was built the other way around: a resilient player and a bundled alert takeover on flat per-site pricing, on the TVs you already own.

Multi-zone layout editor

Compose the whole wall in the browser. Split a screen into zones, drop content into each, and mix live and static media on one board.

  • Drag-and-drop multi-zone layouts — no proprietary design tool
  • Content types: image, video, PDF, web page, Markdown, HTML snippet, clock, countdown & ticker
  • HTML snippets render sandboxed, never injected into the page

Offline-resilient Chrome-TV player

Open a browser on any TV, enter a pairing code, and it plays. The player caches its content and keeps showing the last good board straight through a network drop, then recovers on its own.

  • Runs on any TV with Chrome — no proprietary box to buy
  • Local caching & auto-reconnect: no blank screens on a hiccup
  • Playback logging so you know it is showing (roadmap: signed proof-of-play)

Emergency / CAP alert takeover

One action turns every screen into the emergency message — building-wide or targeted, logged, and auto-restoring when the incident clears. Bundled at the flat price, never a paid add-on.

  • One-button, building-wide or per-group screen takeover
  • Every activation is logged and audited
  • Auto-restores prior content when cleared (roadmap: external-CAP consumption of InformaCast / Alertus / Rave feeds)

Fleet monitoring & scheduling

See every display’s health from one dashboard, and control what shows where with packages, groups and day/time schedules — set once and it runs itself.

  • Live display health & status monitoring across every site
  • Packages (ordered, timed playlists), groups & inherited defaults
  • Visual day-of-week / time-of-day scheduling
