What Drives Us

Our mission with Ignite Video

Cookie banners and invasive technologies have ruined the user experience and have no place on modern websites. A website should never become a monster simply because visitors choose not to accept cookies.

We believe this problem can only be solved when data protection and user experience are considered together. That’s why we’ve developed a solution that seamlessly combines outstanding UX with innovative technology. Ignite is the only platform that seamlessly combines cookie-consent-free, GDPR-compliant video delivery with outstanding performance.

Our goal is to bring back the joy of a seamless web experience – for everyone who wants to showcase videos in high quality, without intrusive tools. Your videos deserve to be seen – without obstacles, seamlessly, and in the best quality. Together, we are setting new standards and shaping the future of the web, where videos work the way they should.

Founder

Jan Peiniger

Jan on LinkedIn

A digital creative with over 20 years of experience turning ideas into reality. Whether through design, code, video, or a combination of all three, my mission is to make complex technologies accessible to everyone.

That’s exactly what Ignite is about. At its core, it’s not just about technology but about fixing an essential part of today’s broken web experience. Our goal? To enable the seamless use of video content – even at scale – without obstacles, annoying cookie banners, overly complex platforms, or unnecessary distractions.

Together with Philipp, I’m working to bring this vision to life.

Co-Founder

Philipp Roth

Philipp on LinkedIn

With over a decade of experience in digital strategy, user experience, and marketing, I’ve seen firsthand how vital data protection is in the digital world – and how challenging it can be to align innovation with privacy. My goal is to create solutions that inspire users without compromise, combining modern design with sustainable, secure approaches.

Sharing knowledge and taking a holistic view have always driven me. I’ve worked as a speaker, workshop leader, and was the founder of one of the largest social media marketing blogs in German-speaking regions. I’m passionate about sharing and advancing digital ideas.

At a leading digital agency, I learned that long-term success comes from integrating diverse perspectives.

Together with Jan, I’m revolutionizing video hosting: privacy-friendly, user-centric, and free of silos.

BUT Why

Why Ignite and Not Another Providers?

You’ve invested significant time and money into creating your videos. Let’s make sure as many of your website visitors as possible can actually see them. Don’t settle for just 40–60% of visitors who feel like accepting cookies today – optimize your website for 100% of your audience.

They have no idea that no one is watching their expensive videos because of GDPR restrictions.
  • We Find Data Protection Boring, Too...

    But when it’s the key to a great UX, it’s anything but boring. Challenge accepted. That’s why we’ve built the only video hosting solution that rethinks privacy to deliver a better customer experience (CX). Privacy + UX = up to 60% more views for your videos. Cookie-free rocks.

  • A direct go from the legal team is important to us.

    We know how tedious it can be to debate what’s allowed and what’s not. That’s why we’ve invested in a legal review and expert opinion for you, so you don’t have to. No cookie overlays, no compromises. Anyone can do GDPR, but we aim higher – we want great UX back.

  • Convince your visitors with better CX.

    If you’re tired of the status quo, you’re in the right place. Our growing customer base proves you want the same as we do. You don’t have to eliminate all cookies, but for videos? They’re completely unnecessary. You’ve invested in expensive videos – let’s make sure they get the attention they deserve.

  • Strengthening infrastructure in Europe.

    We’ve partnered with a leading infrastructure provider directly at DE-CIX in Frankfurt am Main. This ensures the uptime your videos need, while keeping your visitors' data from being sent straight across the Atlantic.

  • We offer a direct line to us

    Dealing with big platforms often feels like shouting into the void. With us, you’ll get answers without navigating cumbersome support systems. Your feedback helps us improve our product – a true win-win.
