Built for Every Live Event Scenario

Ant Media Server is the live event streaming infrastructure behind hybrid conferences, virtual summits, webinars, and white-label event platforms — sub-second WebRTC delivery, on servers you own and control.

In-person audience at a hybrid conference streamed to remote attendees

Hybrid Conferences

Stream keynotes and sessions to in-person and remote attendees simultaneously. Sub-second WebRTC delivery keeps the online audience in sync with the room — questions, polls, and reactions land at the same moment, in any browser, with no plugins.

Virtual Summits & Multi-Track Events

Run multiple concurrent sessions on one streaming infrastructure. Each track gets an independent ingest stream and adaptive bitrate ladder — a keynote stage, breakout rooms, and sponsor sessions managed from a single dashboard and REST API.

Webinars & Product Launches

Host webinars and launch events with real low-latency Q&A — audience questions, live chat, and polls travel over WebRTC data channels alongside the stream. Presenters publish straight from the browser via WebRTC or WHIP, no encoder install required.

Students following a streamed online learning and training event

Online Learning & Training Events

Deliver virtual training, courses, and educational events at scale — the use case behind Cadmium's Warpwire Live platform, built on Ant Media Server to power online learning and hybrid education for institutions worldwide.

Developer code for an API-driven white-label event streaming platform

White-Label Event Platforms

Build your own event product on white-label streaming infrastructure. API-driven live streaming for event platforms — full REST control over the stream lifecycle, SDKs for JavaScript, Android, iOS, Flutter, and React Native, and your brand on every pixel.

Editing timeline of a recorded live event for VOD replay

Post-Event VOD & Replay

Every session records automatically to AWS S3, Azure Blob, or Google Cloud Storage the moment it ends — turning your live event into an on-demand library for attendees who missed a track, with no manual export step.

Low Latency Live Event Streaming with Sub-Second Delivery

Ant Media Server streams live events — keynotes, panels, and Q&A sessions — over WebRTC with sub-second latency, so remote attendees react, ask, and vote in sync with the room, in any browser, with no plugins or downloads.

  • Sub-second WebRTC delivery to any modern browser
  • No viewer-side plugins, apps, or downloads required
  • Data channels for live Q&A, chat, and audience polls
  • Browser-based presenter ingest via WebRTC and WHIP

Sub-second latency keeps hybrid audiences in sync with the stage — remote attendees hear the question, see the answer, and join the applause at the same moment as the room, not ten seconds behind it.

Stream Live Events from Any Production Workflow

Ant Media Server accepts simultaneous RTMP, SRT, WebRTC, and WHIP ingest for hybrid and virtual events — working with OBS, vMix, Wirecast, and hardware encoders, so your production team never changes their workflow.

  • Simultaneous RTMP, SRT, WebRTC, and WHIP ingest
  • Compatible with OBS, vMix, Wirecast, and hardware encoders
  • SRT error correction for unreliable venue networks
  • Independent streams per session for multi-track events

Every concurrent session gets its own ingest stream managed from one dashboard and REST API — run a keynote, five breakout tracks, and a sponsor stage on the same live event streaming infrastructure, without separate accounts per room.

Scalable Streaming for Webinars & Virtual Events

Ant Media Server transcodes each live event session into multiple output formats — WebRTC, HLS, DASH, and LL-HLS — with adaptive bitrate delivery that scales from a 50-person webinar to a 30,000-viewer virtual summit, adjusting to every attendee's device and connection.

  • Adaptive bitrate transcoding per viewer
  • WebRTC, HLS, DASH, and LL-HLS output formats
  • Stable playback on mobile networks and congested venue Wi-Fi
  • Native SDKs for JavaScript, Android, iOS, Flutter, and React Native

Adaptive bitrate output is available across WebRTC, HLS, DASH, and LL-HLS — delivering consistent live event quality to every attendee regardless of device, network speed, or location across 120+ countries.

Secure Live Event Streaming for Ticketed Attendees

Ant Media Server gates every session behind JWT token authentication, single-use TOTP access codes, and IP filtering — so ticketed and registration-only live events stay locked to the attendees who signed up, with no shared links leaking your content.

  • JWT stream security with HMAC-SHA256 signing
  • Single-use TOTP access codes per registered attendee
  • IP address filtering and allowlist control
  • Separate publish and play authorization rules

Token security is enforced across all playback protocols — issue access from your event registration platform via REST API, and expired or reused tokens are rejected at the server, on web, mobile, and embedded players alike.

Case Study

See how Cadmium built Warpwire Live on Ant Media Server

View Case Studies >

We needed to bring a live streaming solution to market quickly. But instead of reinventing the wheel, we wanted to build on top of an existing media server and integrate the features that make Warpwire unique—like captioning, scheduling, analytics, and user access control.

Monte Evans, SVP

We needed a media server that could scale dynamically in our Kubernetes infrastructure, be fully API-driven, support low-latency via WebRTC, and be cost-effective. Ant Media Server checked all the boxes.
