Livepeer Recent Highlights: May and June in Review
The past two months have been packed with innovation, community engagement, and important developments for Livepeer. Here's a comprehensive look at the key highlights and milestones that have shaped the project’s journey recently.Livepeer AI LaunchOne of the most significant milestones was the successful launch of Livepeer AI in May. This critical infrastructure upgrade allows for advanced AI video capabilities, including text-to-image, image-to-image, and image-to-video transformations....

Introducing Livepeer AI
The dawn of generative AI marks a tidal shift in video creation. The generative video sector has been accelerating rapidly since Open AI's Sora demos showed what is possible when the barriers to video creation are reduced to entering text prompts into AI. The top open-source AI video model Stable Diffusion grew to more than 10 million users in just two months. But the promising growth of AI video tools faces a serious challenge. The $49 billion GPU market that powers generative AI is con...

Livepeer AI introduced the world’s first AI video platform with decentralized processing and AI compute capability. Today, Livepeer unveils the next chapter in the network’s AI journey: the Livepeer AI Video Startup Program.
Generative AI models like Sora, Runway, and Stable Diffusion have fundamentally transformed video production, making it more accessible than ever. To harness this potential, Livepeer welcomes the first cohort of AI video startups, ushering in the next generation of applications at the intersection of decentralized AI and generative media.
The Livepeer AI Video Startup Program is a bespoke three-month initiative designed to accelerate the development of decentralized AI video technologies and applications.
The inaugural cohort of eight startups was hand-picked by the Livepeer tech team based on their commitment to open-source and decentralized technology, a focus on creating nimble, user-centric products, and a strong interest in using the Livepeer network for AI inference tasks.
Livepeer AI enhances video capabilities on the network. Startups will focus on integrating generative AI features into their applications, such as text-to-image, image-to-image, image-to-video, upscaling, and speech-to-text. Developers can use established pipelines or build and deploy their own, working closely with the Livepeer AI engineering team.
The program offers selected startups $20,000 in grant funding, infrastructure credits for AI inference and transcoding, and expert mentorship from the Livepeer tech team.
Participants will also gain early access to Livepeer’s cutting-edge AI video infrastructure, with opportunities for co-marketing and partnership activation. The program culminates in early October.
