Screens you already own
A smart TV browser, a tablet, an old laptop, a mini PC — if it opens a web page, it can show your sign.
Digital Signage
One screen, every message in its place.
Split any screen into zones — a main video area, a sidebar, a clock, your logo, a scrolling ticker along the bottom. Fill each zone with what you need, then open the sign on a screen you already own. No boxes, no new hardware.

Community screen example
A meeting, announcements, and community news—all together.
Meeting video
A large main area for council meetings, community videos, or a live YouTube feed.
Announcement sidebar
Keep upcoming events and community notices alongside the main program.
Branded banner & logo
Give your city, church, or organization its own recognizable look.
News ticker
Keep updates moving along the bottom without covering the main content.
Zones: you decide what each part of the screen does
Start from a preset, then fill every zone with exactly what you need. Tap a layout to see how the screen splits — sizes below are for a 1920 × 1080 screen.

Your logo and the time, exactly where you want them
Both sit on top of whatever is playing, so nothing gets pushed out of place. Try the controls — this is the same placement your sign uses.

Sample only. Your images stay in this browser tab and are not saved to an account.
No hardware needed
Most signage systems ask you to buy a player box and a licence for every screen. Avista runs in the browser you already have.
One link, or an embed
Open the sign link full screen on the wall, or drop the embed code into your website. Both update the moment you edit.
Nothing to install or license
No media player box, no signage software, no per-screen licence. Your sign lives in the same account as your players and channels.
What you get
Zones you control
Six preset layouts — full screen, main + sidebar, split screen, header + sidebar + ticker. Zones sit flush, with no borders between them.
Video in any zone
Play a slideshow, a video or a synchronized TV channel in the main zone — or run two at once on a split screen.
Live YouTube feeds
Point a zone at a live stream. Hold a thumbnail for 5, 10, 20 or 30 seconds before the feed starts.
Your logo, anywhere
Upload a PNG and nudge it anywhere on screen with arrow buttons and two sliders, in small, medium or large.
Clock and date, placed
Overlay the time on any zone, pinned to a corner in three sizes — with your timezone and 12- or 24-hour time.
Ticker in your colours
A scrolling message along the bottom, in a bar you colour yourself; the text stays readable automatically.
