Ant Media, a privately owned US-based company founded in 2017, develops and provides video processing and playout solutions. Employing approximately 40 people, the company's flagship product, Ant Media Server, offers ultra-low latency (WebRTC) and low-latency (CMAF & HLS) video streaming capabilities, along with associated management tools. In 2023, the company's revenue was less than $10 million.
Layercake announced the integration of Ant Media Server into its Streamcake platform on September 10, 2025. This integration combines Ant Media Server's ultra-low latency streaming engine, supporting WebRTC and other protocols, with Streamcake's automation features to streamline workflows for live and on-demand media. The collaboration allows for sub-second real-time video delivery with automated scheduling and orchestration capabilities, enabling dynamic ultra-low latency streaming workflows. A separate announcement detailed the integration's ability to support robust, scalable, and adaptive media workflows. Another partnership, with CAMB.AI's DubStream platform, focuses on multilingual streaming capabilities, though this is not directly related to the Streamcake integration.
Ant Media's customers primarily consist of telecoms, niche sports and connectivity infrastructure companies. Examples of Ant Media's customers include Vodafone, Qualcomm and Electronic Arts (EA).
