Hi Product Hunters, This is Oguz
I am excited to introduce improved Ant Media Server, a backend platform where you can stream live, interactive videos in no time. 🎉
Ant Media allows you to deploy your own streaming backend, powered by WebRTC. It retrieves any video from a device and then can send this to either one person or millions, depending on your use-case. It supports WebRTC(0.5 seconds), CMAF(3-5 seconds), HLS(8-12 seconds) as playback.
Some of the great ❤️ features of Ant Media Server are:
✅ Ready-to-use, highly scalable, real-time and live video streaming solutions
✅ Extensive APIs to upload, encode, transcode and stream videos
✅ Ability to re-stream to social media platforms
✅ Adaptive bitrate streaming
✅ Intuitive dashboard
There are more than 1200 paying customers 🔥 in 130 countries, delivering 2+ billion minutes of videos every month with over 7200 servers managed. SDKs for Android, iOS and web makes it easy to build video-powered apps in a short amount of time.
Special thanks to all users and community guys with whom we’ve worked with to build their business on, and the Ant Media team for helping us build a backend where people tell us every day “you are the best video streaming platform with an outstanding support team”.
Besides technical features, we believe in good faith 😇 of everyone and we always try to create value and win-win collaboration for users. It's our excitement about creating value for people make this product have users in 130 countries. You can be part of this journey 🤗
Please let me know if you have any questions or have feedback you’d like to share.
PS: SRT Ingest and WebRTC playback support is coming soon for video experts. 🤓
In our webinars, there are usually 3-4 speakers and several hundred viewers. Is it possible to send the speakers' stream as a single broadcast to the audience, preferably with CMAF or HLS?
Report
@emre_balkaya Yes, it is possible to send single user stream to the audience/viewers with WebRTC(0.5 sec), HLS(8-10 sec) & CMAF(3-5 sec).

Hello @emre_balkaya
Thank you for your question.
Yes, it is totally doable with Ant Media Streaming Server.
We can use Ant Media Server's MCU feature to merge the speakers streams into just a single stream and the merged stream can be delivered to any number of audience as WebRTC, or CMAF or HLS.
I hope I was able to answer. If you have any other question, please let us know.
Have a great day!
"What is this??? A streaming server... for ants?!"
Sorry, I had to get a Zoolander quote in there 🤣 All joking aside, this is very cool. Congrats on the big launch! (And feel free to repurpose my joke for any and all marketing purposes 😉)
Great! Ant Media is brilliant tool! I would love to try it out! Congrats on the launch! ^_^ Is re-streaming possible on all socials or it refers on a certain social media channels? :))

Hello,
I will lime to proposed adding the feature of a host to invite another person to join a group broadcast will be a great feature. This should be control by the host who can join the live stream. Great work and application!
Have a good day! :)

Hello @ogulcanorhan
Thank you so much for your support :)

Thank you @tyler_mills2 for your great question. Ant Media Server is a media streaming engine rather than being a service. So you can use it on premise or on any cloud service. You can install it or you can just start a ready to use image from different cloud service's marketplaces with one click. That means: You don't get service instead you will have your own server. 😀
Thank you very much @basharath
We are always grateful :)
