Mistserver, a privately owned company headquartered in the Netherlands, was founded in 2009 and operates with approximately 10 employees. The company functions as an open source media server, specializing in the process of ingesting media and delivering it across various formats.
MistServer plans to introduce API HTTP proxying and SSL support for its API in an upcoming release, aiming to enhance server usage, the company announced on August 17, 2026. On August 10, it posted the first chapter of its reworked online documentation, which includes new architectural information and aims for a better structure with updated content and flowcharts.
