Media is changing from static files to dynamic mixes, remixes and mashups
We specialize in combining creativity from multiple stakeholders to circulate value back to the people who make it or contribute in other ways,
instead of being locked by a few corporations.

What People Are Saying
“It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.”

Why now?
Broadcast gave us three channels
Cable gave us thousands we didn't watch
MTV made music into culture, then lost its soul
YouTube gave everyone a stage and burned through our sanity
TikTok shrank culture into seconds and stole our attention
Streaming exploded during the pandemic, and now costs more than cable
Now it's the mid-2020s: The format is broken
Ambistream give you the remote control for what comes next.
What makes Ambistream different?
Layers
Our multi-layered media format allows independent layers (video, audio, graphics, data) tobe mixed, matched, and transformed across any device.
Every piece of content is modular, remixable, and interactive. Your phone becomes the remote for experiences that flow between TV, IoT devices and 3D environments.
Logic
Create your own channels or let the system learn your preferences and build them for you. You decide how much the algorithms adapt and how AI decisions get made with full transparency into the process.
Set preferences individually or join with communities to shape content together, but you always control the rules.
Licensing
We track the provenance & attribution of every contribution gets tracked and credited automatically.
When content gets remixed or transformed, smart contracts ensure creators get paid and attribution flows to everyone who contributed.
Value flows fairly from original creators to curators to editors through the entire creative chain.
Streaming is being reinvented
Creators and audiences are taking back control
Ambistream is the bridge into this new world
