Catalog size, genre depth, regional content & plan pricing compared across Netflix, Prime Video & JioHotstar in India and the US — scraped metadata analysis.
TL;DR: Actowiz analyzed catalog metadata — 45,000+ title listings — and plan pricing across Netflix, Prime Video, and JioHotstar in India and the US. Findings: Prime Video listed the largest raw catalog while Netflix led in originals share; JioHotstar's regional-language depth (X% of its Indian catalog) is its structural moat; and per-title-value (catalog ÷ plan price) varies X× between markets for the same platform.
Streaming competition is fought on three measurable axes: catalog breadth, content mix, and price architecture. Studios deciding licensing strategy, platforms benchmarking content gaps, and analysts modelling churn all need the same thing — structured, current catalog metadata. Platforms don't publish it; their public catalog pages reveal it.
| Parameter | Coverage |
|---|---|
| Platforms | Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar |
| Markets | India, USA |
| Title listings captured | 45,000+ (movies + series, metadata only) |

We capture listing metadata only — no media content — and track adds/removals to measure catalog churn.
JioHotstar's catalog skews X% non-Hindi/non-English (Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali...), versus Y% on Netflix and Z% on Prime. Combined with sports streaming, this explains its plan architecture: reach over ARPU. For content acquirers, the gap analysis by language × genre is a direct licensing-opportunity map.
