Cloud-native HTML 5 graphics for data-driven live events

Live broadcasting is increasingly shaped by moments where data changes rapidly, and audiences expect instant, meaningful interpretation. Election nights, major sports tournaments, financial results, cultural ceremonies, and global news events all share the same challenge: information must be gathered in real time, validated with precision, and presented on air without sacrificing clarity or editorial impact.

HTML‑5 graphics technology, lightweight, cloud native, and highly adaptable, has emerged as a powerful answer to these demands. Aski-da Creative has been at the forefront of this shift, designing flexible workflows that allow broadcasters to deliver rich, dynamic storytelling across any type of data driven event.

A unified workflow, from data to broadcast

Whether the task is tallying votes, updating sports brackets, tracking live scores, or visualizing complex datasets, Aski-da Creative’s cloud-hosted workflow centralizes every stage of the process. Data retrieval, editorial moderation, and on-air graphics are all managed within a single environment.

Editorial teams can validate information at granular or global levels: constituencies during an election, groups during a tournament draw, or rankings during a live sports event while technical operators control how that information appears on screen. This unified approach reduces operational complexity and ensures reliability during high pressure broadcasts.

Multiple outputs, one HTML‑5 engine

At the core of this workflow is the Singular.live HTML5 graphics engine, which enables broadcasters to drive a wide range of outputs directly from the cloud:

• Tickers and lower thirds
• Interactive touchscreens
• Realtime maps and data visualizations
• Video walls and studio displays
• Full-frame graphics for multilingual or multiplatform broadcasts

Because the system requires no heavy local infrastructure, broadcasters can scale up quickly and cost-effectively whether covering a national election, a global sports event, or a fast-moving news story.

Editorial empowerment at the center

A defining principle of Aski-da Creative’s approach is keeping human editorial judgment in control. Unlike fully automated feeds, this workflow allows producers to decide what goes on air, when, and in what format.

Custom web interfaces give journalists and operators distinct, intuitive views of the data. Even under the pressure of live broadcasting, teams can make confident decisions that enhance storytelling rather than simply displaying raw numbers.

Rich storytelling for any data-driven moment

HTML5 graphics open the door to deeper, more engaging narratives. Aski-da Creative’s tools support:

• Interactive touchscreens presenters can explore live
• Historical comparisons and contextual layers
• Scenario simulators (e.g., electoral coalitions or sports bracket projections)
• The merging of diverse data sources, from polls to official counts to live sports feeds or manual inputs

These capabilities transform complex datasets into clear, dynamic insights that audiences can follow effortlessly.

Case Study: France 24’s coverage of the 2026 World Cup draw

One of our recent projects illustrates how this technology extends far beyond elections. For the draw of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Aski-da Creative deployed a complete HTML‑5 graphics workflow for France 24, which broadcast the event in French, English, Spanish, and Arabic.

Thanks to the creation of a workflow where the editorial teams entered the draw information into a Retool interface, which centralized and validated the data before transmitting it via API to Singular.Live’s HTML5 engine, Aski-da Creative was able to:

• Build and deploy the full system within days
• Operate within a reasonable budget
• Provide editorial teams with intuitive tools for a two-hour live broadcast
• Deliver real-time graphics across four channels

This project demonstrated how cloud native HTML‑5 graphics can support complex, multilingual editorial coverage with speed, agility, and precision.
