ALT Systems, Inc., a leading system integrator and technology solutions provider for the media and entertainment industry, today announced the launch of PixSpan Data, Inc., and the availability of the PixMover Platform. PixSpan Data was formed following ALT Systems’ acquisition of the core intellectual property from Pixspan, Inc. in 2023, bringing renewed focus and investment to one of the industry’s most advanced lossless data compression technologies.
With the launch of PixSpan Data, ALT Systems is delivering a revitalized PixMover Platform, which will be showcased for the first time at the 2026 HPA Tech Retreat taking place February 15-19 in Rancho Mirage, California. Built on patented Bit Exact Round Trip lossless compression technology, the platform fully supports high-bit depth and uncompressed imaging formats and is designed to address growing data movement challenges across 4K and 8K production, visual effects, satellite imaging, and medical imaging workflows.
“The acquisition of Pixspan’s IP was a deliberate investment in the most advanced lossless data acceleration technology available,” said Jon Guess, President of ALT Systems. “Over the past two years, our team has focused on refining that technology and delivering it as a simplified, turnkey PixMover Platform. The result is a robust and reliable solution that allows our customers to move and manage petabytes of data with confidence and predictability.”
The acquired intellectual property enables mathematically lossless compression that routinely reduces massive raw image files by 50 to 80 percent, without sacrificing data fidelity or integrity. Since completing the acquisition, PixSpan Data has evolved PixMover from a specialized software tool into a complete, integrated solution that combines proprietary software with optimized hardware.
Now offered as a turnkey platform, PixMover is designed to simplify deployment while delivering predictable, real-time data acceleration and migration. By transmitting significantly less data, the platform reduces transfer times, lowers storage requirements, and minimizes costly cloud egress fees, while freeing up network bandwidth for mission-critical operations.
PixSpan Data will showcase the new PixMover Platform at the 2026 HPA Tech Retreat, February 15-19, Rancho Mirage, California, and during NAB Show 2026, April 19-22, Las Vegas. To arrange a meeting, visit pixspandata.com/events/.
