Backed by leaders shaping the future of streaming and infrastructure

(Buffer-Free Video)^AI brings together the companies building the systems behind modern video delivery, real-time infrastructure, and viewer experience.

Types of talks we're looking for

  • Streaming the Super Bowl to 15M+ viewers and what made it work

  • Where GenAI breaks video pipelines, and how teams are fixing it

  • Monetization and personalization as part of the core system

  • What changed after shipping AI into production video workflows

What it's like in the room

Talks, workshops, and everything in between

We want to hear what you're building

Talks should be grounded in real systems. What worked, what didn't, and what changed after shipping to production.
