For companies managing large, dispersed workforces, communication is everything. Without built-in capabilities like embedded live streaming, real-time reach suffers — important updates get delayed, engagement drops, and frontline employees feel disconnected from the organization.
Beehome, a Brazilian HR tech platform serving Latin America’s largest enterprises, faced this exact challenge. Built for frontline and field employees — not desk workers — their platform supports organizations operating across cities, regions, and sometimes entire countries. From manufacturing floors to healthcare facilities, companies like Coca-Cola Andina, Raízen, GOL, and Dasa rely on Beehome to keep their people informed, trained, and engaged — all in one place.
As demand for live communication grew, they needed a way to embed video broadcasting directly into their platform — without building media infrastructure from scratch.
That’s when they turned to Ant Media Server.

The Challenge
Employees needed live video. The platform didn’t have it.
Beehome’s enterprise clients were running company-wide town halls, leadership broadcasts, and live training sessions — but none of it happened inside the platform. Employees were sent to external tools, links broke, engagement dropped, and the experience felt fragmented from the HR platform they used every day.
The solution was clear: add embedded live streaming natively. But as a bootstrapped product team focused on HR — not media engineering — building that video infrastructure from scratch was explicitly out of scope. They needed to embed a proven WebRTC streaming solution via API, not build one.
The Turning Point
Finding an embedded live streaming solution built for SaaS — not just broadcasters
Beehome needed a streaming solution that could be embedded as a feature — not consumed as an end product. After evaluating cloud-based streaming services and open-source alternatives, the requirements were clear:
- Large scale streaming that works reliably at enterprise scale
- Self-hosting flexibility and a pricing model built for SaaS embedding — not per-stream consumption
- API and embeddable player support to integrate directly into the Beehome portal
Why Beehome Chose Ant Media Server
Built for embedding, not just broadcasting
Most live streaming platforms are designed for broadcasters — not for SaaS teams that need to embed live streaming into their platforms. Ant Media Server was different: it offered the flexibility to self-host, integrate via API, and embed players directly without disrupting the user experience.

Looking Ahead
Expanding embedded live streaming — multilingual and maintenance-ready
Beehome’s workforce spans multiple countries and languages across Latin America. Their next frontier is enhancing their embedded live streaming experience with native real-time translated captions and dubbing — currently handled through third-party tools. For enterprise deployments serving multilingual teams, this would be a significant differentiator.
On the product side, a predictable low-cost maintenance plan covering version updates would allow Beehome’s lean team to focus on innovation rather than infrastructure upkeep.
