In the 21st century, software has become an integral part of the business. Revolutionising the way we do business, Software as a Service (SaaS) providers have emerged in just about every industry imaginable.

SaaS is a software distribution model, where a cloud provider hosts applications and enables availability for these over the internet. For the everyday person, SaaS might not mean much. For business owners, however, SaaS can be the one thing that saves them dozens of hours per month, thousands of dollars per year, countless headaches, and the ability to do things they never thought possible.

Each with their own unique products and services, here we present 10 Australian SaaS companies to watch in 2021.

Specializing in what makes video powerful, Linius Technologies has cracked the code of hyper-personalized video experiences. They treat video as data, so they crack open the video file, expose the data inside, and enable it to be enriched by computing science so it becomes smarter and more intelligent. Their globally patented video-virtualization technology then reassembles the data from any amount of disparate sources, to deliver an infinite amount of personalized video streams to viewers, on the spot. Linius’ world-first technology, is on a mission to make the world’s video accessible as data.

Recently, Linius launched a video conferencing solution called Whizzard, that makes it possible for users to search, edit, and share video recordings of meetings and lectures. The Linius tech cracks open the video conference recordings, exposing them to raw data to enable automatic enrichment of the content by world-leading AI tools.

Then, the enriched videos are automatically assembled and stitched together on the fly and can be saved and shared as personalized playlists (like Spotify for video). Linius recently won the Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA) VIC 2021 Technology Platform Solution of the Year. And it’s no surprise given they offer something that no one else in the world can do.
