Overview
Livepeer is a decentralised video infrastructure network founded in 2017 with a core team in New York. Independent operators contribute graphics hardware to transcode live and on-demand video at a fraction of centralised cloud pricing. The network has expanded into artificial intelligence inference workloads that use the same distributed compute base.
