Most digital signage platforms charge per screen, per month — and lock you into their hardware. We built something different: a genuinely free, cross-platform solution that's more capable than the paid alternatives.

Six reasons businesses choose DigitalSignage.com over any paid platform.
Most paid platforms advertise a low per-screen price, then add fees for API access, advanced scheduling, and support. Our core platform is free — forever — with no strings attached.
Paid platforms often push you toward proprietary media players. We run on Windows PCs, Macs, Android tablets, Raspberry Pi, and Chrome OS — use what you have, buy what you like.
Many paid solutions support one or two operating systems. We deliver a consistent, fully-featured experience across all major platforms — simultaneously, in the same account.
Screens that react to temperature sensors, occupancy data, live feeds, or custom API sources. Paid competitors treat this as an expensive enterprise add-on. We include it at every tier.
Build fully interactive kiosk experiences — wayfinding, product browsers, self-service — without buying a separate kiosk software license. It's part of the platform from day one.
