Engage CG is an innovative master control graphics platform on macOS, developed by BTi for broadcasters in the US, and when combined with the Bluefish444 Epoch | Neutron, becomes a powerful way for news brands to captivate and delight their viewers with beautiful real-time information tickers, no matter the platform it is viewed on.

The unique hybrid design allows the same master control graphics to power both traditional and streaming channels simultaneously. A simple press of a button allows for a main or sub-channel to stream directly to Facebook Live.

All BTi Attendant Solutions applications are fully integrated with Engage CG, which allows for a combination of school closings with sports scores, severe weather alerts, news, and election results. Engage CG with Bluefish444 can be used to automatically reposition routine tickers when an emergency weather crawl is urgently required, or integrate candidate tweets from Twitter while election results are displayed.

The system is a turnkey solution, meaning that anyone can pick it up and create the required dynamic information quickly and get it out to broadcast easily.
