Video Streaming

EdgeAI Video streaming smarts

To deliver the best possible video, our team created a new approach. We built a video specific AI that runs in the video player anytime someone is watching your content. This proprietary intelligence gets delivered with your video player, and then works with the sole purpose of delivering the best video experience. It monitors and optimizes every individual detail of the video playback experience in realtime on whatever device you watch the video from.

This approach is revolutionary from existing systems which provide a “dumb” video player that can simply ingest the video stream from the smarter hub delivery networks. We flip this on its head and the result is amazing. Each EdgeAI is tasked with the goal of never letting the video experience suffer and is able to take fully distributed actions in order to guarantee this. Each client optimizes for its own experience undictated by any central server.

No grainy video here

Current systems take “dumb” measures to solve for delivery issues like showing you grainy, pixelated video. Not with Swarmify, our AI is evaluating in realtime what the best video experience looks like. And grainy video is NOT a good video experience. So the smart player will take actions to mitigate any factors impacting the playback while optimizing for the factors that we as humans care about.

Instead of optimizing for just a simple parameter like video buffering or bandwidth, Swarmify SmartVideo is optimizing and balancing for all of these factors in a quality of experience matrix. These are things like instant loading, no buffering, best quality picture, and more. Our player smarts are constantly analyzing and taking options to give each of your users the best possible video it can. You won’t find anything near as comprehensive as this in any other video player in the market.

And the list of things our EdgeAI monitors and manages consists of millions of signals over the course of a video playback. It’s the type of thing that computers do best, managing a far higher quantity of data and decisions than a human could ever manage. Now that’s what AI should be used for, delivering good video to your customers.

And each playback experience with all of its data is being fed back in to our AI to help teach it and improve its decision making. That means its getting smarter and better at its job with every video played. With billions of these playbacks already in its memory, it is the smartest video AI on the planet.
