Put your brand beside documentary programmes

Next Step has documentary channels and programmes in Thailand and abroad. Choose the route that fits your market. In Thailand, advertise on the four Good TV channels on AIS Play. Abroad, place your Thai brand or organisation on Thainess, which is broadcast across Asia-Pacific including Oceania and is preparing to reach Asia, Europe and the Americas.

Reach viewers in Thailand through Good TV channels

Good TV has five channels on AIS Play: Samrujlok, Animal Show, MySci, Khongdee Thailand and Thainess. You can advertise in Thailand on the first four, and your brand sits within programmes viewers already watch. Thainess is sold through the second route, which includes audiences abroad.

Best for
Brands and media agencies that want to build awareness among Thai audiences, especially brands that want to sit alongside documentaries on nature, animals, science and Thailand itself.
Who you reach
Viewers who stream channels in the AIS Play app on their phones and TVs. The programmes are factual: documentaries that inform and tell true stories.
Ad formats
  • Series and programme sponsorship

    Your brand sits beside the series or programme you choose, on air and on the channel's social pages.

  • Branded content clips

    We make short clips with your team, telling your story in a documentary style, and publish them on the accounts that suit the story best. You approve the content before it goes up.

  • TV and social package

    Buy once and get both a presence on the TV channels and on the same channel's social accounts. Your brand appears on TV and on mobile.

Channels you can buy

Reach audiences abroad with Thainess

Place your Thai brand or organisation on Thainess, which is on air across Asia-Pacific today, with streaming to Asia, Europe and the Americas planned for 2027.

Best for
Thai products and services that want to be known abroad, and large Thai organisations, from government bodies and state enterprises to major companies, that want to shape how Thailand or their organisation is seen overseas.
What you get
Your name sits beside the culture and documentary programmes of Thainess, which tell the story of Thailand. It is a credible setting for Thai brands and organisations.

Where Thainess is shown

What is on air today sits in the top row. What is coming sits in the bottom row.

On air now

  • In Thailand

    Thainess on AIS Play, TrueID and, through AIS Hotel IPTV, in Thai hotel rooms.

  • Asia-Pacific, including Oceania

    Thainess is broadcast, encrypted, on the AsiaSat 7 satellite and reaches hotel rooms in Asia. AsiaSat states that its satellite fleet has access to more than 860 million households and over 550,000 hotel rooms across Asia-Pacific.

    These figures describe the size of the satellite's footprint, not Thainess viewership.

Planned for 2027

  • Free ad-supported streaming on Samsung TV Plus

    Thainess is preparing to launch as a free ad-supported streaming channel on Samsung TV Plus, scheduled for 2027, to reach viewers in Asia, Europe and the Americas.

    This is a plan and a schedule, not yet launched. Launch date and first countries will be announced when ready.

Ad formats

  • Ad spots

    A short commercial placed in the programme breaks of the channel. A quick way to introduce a product, and easy to scale to your budget.

  • A documentary made for you

    Our documentary team produces a film that your brand or organisation sponsors, then broadcasts it on the channel.

  • Sponsorship and other formats

    Your name alongside a programme or series, or a format we design together around your goal.

  1. Tell us your brief.

    Email us four things: the product, service or organisation you represent; the markets abroad you want to reach; the format that interests you (ad spots, a documentary or sponsorship); and when you would like to start.

  2. Receive your media plan.

    Our sales team proposes the platforms, formats and timing that suit your brief.

  3. Go on air.

    Once you approve, we schedule your campaign or your film and put it on air.
