About AJA

An industry leader in the video and broadcast market

AJA was founded by engineer John Abt in 1993, who still serves as the company Chairman. Today the company employs over 200 people worldwide, building industry leading video capture cards, digital recording devices, video routers, frame synchronizers and scalers, digital converters and professional cameras.

After great success initially with an innovative line of Mini-Converters, AJA expanded into the burgeoning desktop video market in 2000. The company’s inaugural line of KONA video capture and playback cards quickly established AJA’s reputation for delivering the highest-quality desktop video products. In addition to the KONA family of video I/O cards for the Mac and Windows PCs, AJA’s growing product line also extended to include the innovative “Io” Thunderbolt desktop video products and trend-setting Ki Pro family of portable and rackmountable file-based recorders.

AJA’s engineering has consistently supported advancements in broadcast technologies as well as format standards to provide video professionals with future-proof workflow solutions. From the FS family of frame synchronizers, frame rate and format converters, and HDR workflow tools to emerging Video IP workflows, broadcasters and media professionals rely on AJA gear to simplify the way images are captured, converted, monitored and distributed.

AJA also provides its unique technology to leading manufacturers and developer partners across the professional video industry for integration into their product lineups. High-profile media companies around the globe, along with broadcasters, networks, post-production houses, mobile truck operators, cinematographers, film editors and more, rely on the reliability, flexibility and performance of AJA technologies.
