New

contboxx — ready-made content for every screen.

News, weather, sports, knowledge and more — automatically up to date, no design effort. Start for free, and save 50% on all paid plans as a viewneo customer.

What contboxx is

contboxx is a content platform with ready-made, self-updating channels for digital signage screens: more than 35 content channels in 12 categories and 15 languages, plus over 100 interactive games. The new contboxx platform goes live at contboxx.com at the end of October 2026. Instead of designing and refreshing content by hand, you pick a channel and it keeps itself current automatically.

Channels for every screen

Each channel is built to run without upkeep. The categories cover news, weather, departure boards, business, sports, entertainment, science and tech, environment and nature, health, lifestyle and industry topics — all formatted and ready for a signage screen from the first minute. Interactive games — quizzes, board games and fairground classics — give visitors in waiting areas something to do on a touch screen.

Plans and pricing

contboxx has four plans:

  • Free — all content channels, 100 API requests per day, one API key, no time limit
  • Starter — for single locations and small networks, interactive games included
  • Professional — for growing networks with several locations
  • Enterprise — for large networks with individual requirements, on request

As a viewneo customer, you save 50% on the paid contboxx plans. Current prices are on the contboxx pricing page; for viewneo’s own plans, see the viewneo pricing page.

How it works

Using contboxx takes three steps: choose a channel, drag it into a viewneo playlist, and it updates itself from then on. contboxx delivers each channel as an HTML widget, RSS feed or JSON API, so there is no file to re-upload and no schedule to maintain — the channel refreshes its own content in the background, so the screen always shows something current.

A free combination

viewneo Free + contboxx Free: one screen with constantly fresh content — for 0. Pairing the free tiers of both products is enough to run a single screen with always-current news, weather, or sports content, with no cost and no design work.

contboxx vs. contboxx Vault

contboxx and contboxx Vault are separate products: contboxx delivers ready, self-updating public content channels for any screen, while contboxx Vault is an on-premise AI knowledge platform built for companies that need their own documents and data searchable internally. If you are looking for self-hosted knowledge search rather than signage content, see contboxx Vault instead.

Where contboxx fits with viewneo

contboxx channels slot into the same playlists as your own media, AI-generated content, and any plugin you already use, so a screen can mix a store promotion with a live news channel without extra setup. For a broader look at building and scheduling content, see how viewneo works.

Always current

Drop it in once — it stays fresh

A contboxx channel behaves like any other playlist item, but it refreshes its own content automatically, so a screen stays current without anyone touching it after setup.

How it works

  1. 01

    Choose a channel

  2. 02

    Drag it into your playlist

    Add the channel to any viewneo playlist, exactly like any other piece of content.

  3. 03

    It updates itself
