Founded in 2010, the company employs approximately 230 individuals and reported $23.0M in revenue as of 2024.

A founding member of the Streaming Video Technology Alliance (SVTA), the company specializes in open caching systems, which are based on SVTA specifications and are deeply embedded in mobile, telco, and cable service provider partner networks globally.
Qwilt announced the departure of CEO and co-founder Alon Maor, who will transition to an advisory role on the board of directors.
