Video infrastructure platform 100ms has raised $4.5 million (around Rs 33.3 crore) in seed funding round led by Accel with participation from Strive.vc.  

“Being a video engineer all my life, I understand the complexity of adding live video at scale. For a long time, this infrastructure has only been available to very few developers. We started 100ms to build live video infrastructure for the world," Kshitij Gupta, co-founder and CEO, 100ms, said in a statement.   

Launched in October 2020 by Gupta, Aniket Behera, and Sarvesh Dwivedi, 100ms aims to be a live video infrastructure provider to companies looking to add Zoom-style video conferencing in their app.

The founding team built live video infrastructure at Facebook and Disney. 

100ms said it has operated in beta for a long period and that they launched fully customisable software development kits that allow developers to add Zoom-quality video to their apps in hours, instead of months.  

“Zoom is getting unbundled. Huge markets are being unlocked which are now leveraging white labelled video/audio -- edtech, telehealth, gaming retail, fitness, audio rooms, among others. 100ms aims to be the infrastructure layer for all these industries,” Behera, COO of 100ms, said.
