News agency Ruptly partners with video platform Wochit for archive content

Global news and media agency Ruptly has announced a strategic partnership with Wochit, the video library and creation platform used by over 350 media brands worldwide. 

The deal will see Wochit clients able to utilise Ruptly’s archival catalogue within the Wochit platform. Wochit clients include USA Today, The Week, Focus Online and Der Spiegel.

Ruptly is well-regarded for its finding of alternative news stories ranging from feel-good human interest pieces to more serious articles.

Matt Tabaccos, chief commercial officer at Ruptly, said: “This is another exciting partnership for Ruptly, and we look forward to working with Wochit to share our wealth of content with new audiences around the world. By joining forces with this cutting-edge online video creation platform, we can keep more clients and their audiences enlightened and engaged, particularly as outlets around the world face many logistical issues in sourcing and creating fresh content at this time.”

Jo Schmaltz, SVP strategic business development at Wochit, said: “Our commitment to our video creators is to empower them with the best possible tools and content, as and when they need them. We are proud to collaborate with Ruptly to provide our users with archive visual news content to create high-quality shareable videos in minutes.”
