SAP S/4HANA NATIVE · BUILT ON SAP BTP
Acuiti Media Cloud: media subscriptions on S/4HANA, with no rebuilds
Acuiti Media Cloud gives publishers the full subscription lifecycle on SAP S/4HANA, offers, renewals, publications, and analytics, built on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) and integrated with SAP BRIM and Subscription Billing.
THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
S/4HANA does not carry
your subscription business with it
Standard S/4HANA does not include the capabilities of the legacy SAP Industry Solution for Media (IS-Media). For a publisher, that gap opens at the worst possible moment—the point of migration—which shows up two different ways.
01
If you are moving
off IS-Media
The publication and subscription lifecycle you have run for years is not there in standard S/4HANA. Without a replacement, you are left rebuilding it through custom development, or compromising on what your subscription business can do.
02
If you are going live
on S/4HANA for the first time
You are standing up a modern subscription operation with no media-specific foundation to build on: offers, renewals, and subscriber management all have to come from somewhere.
Fragmented renewals
Offers, renewals, and subscriber communications spread across disconnected tools, and revenue leaks through the gaps.
No view of subscriber behaviour
Retention calls get made without live data on cancellations, renewal rates, or subscriber patterns.
Manual effort that does not scale
High-volume subscription and renewal work runs on workarounds that break as you grow.

WHO IT’S FOR
Built for media businesses that run on recurring revenue
Acuiti Media Cloud is designed for publishers whose revenue depends on subscriptions, across print, digital, and hybrid models:
- Print and digital publishers
- Publishing media houses
- Subscription-led media platforms
- Content providers with recurring revenue models
CAPABILITIES
Six capabilities, one system
All capabilities run natively on SAP BTP. No custom integrations. No middleware.
Centralised offer management
Create and manage subscription offers, promotional pricing, and discount rules directly in S/4HANA.
Renewal orchestration
Automated, multi-stage renewal journeys with configurable triggers, offer distribution, and targeting.
Bulk contract processing
High-volume subscription and renewal operations with built-in validation, designed to scale without manual effort.
Renewal intelligence and analytics
Real-time dashboards with AI-driven insight into renewal trends, cancellations, and subscriber behaviour, so retention decisions rest on live data, not guesswork.
Publication lifecycle management
Track print, digital, and hybrid publications from creation through delivery, including back-order handling.
Email template management
Multilingual renewal communications for consistent subscriber engagement across every channel you serve.
WHY ACUITI
Purpose-built for media, purpose-built for S/4HANA
Acuiti Media Cloud is built for both media subscriptions and S/4HANA, closing the IS-Media gap rather than working around it.
SAP-native, built on BTP
Every capability lives inside your existing SAP environment, on SAP Business Technology Platform. No third-party middleware to license, secure, or maintain.
IS-Media continuity
It preserves and extends the capabilities of the legacy SAP Industry Solution for Media on S/4HANA, so migration does not force a trade-off between moving forward and keeping what works.
Built for scale
High-volume bulk processing, multi-stage renewals, and multilingual communications, across global subscriber bases.
Predictive renewal intelligence
AI-driven analytics surface renewal risks and subscriber patterns before they turn into lost revenue – the answer to the blind spot most publishers hit at migration.
