According to the report, the AI video workflow tools segment is expected to grow at 21.1% during the forecast period, making it the fastest-growing submarket. By streaming type, live streaming is projected to grow the fastest during the forecast period, reaching 15.6%. By consumption mode or device, connected TV (CTV) and streaming platforms are expected to hold the largest market share by 2031, valued at $9.86 billion. Meanwhile, mobile or handheld devices are expected to capture the largest market share during the forecast period.
The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing market for video streaming software, driven primarily by the expansion of OTT video streaming platforms, growth in mobile video consumption, and the demand for scalable, cloud-based video streaming software infrastructure to support rapid digital content distribution on smartphones and connected devices.
In terms of technology applications, live streaming technology is widely used in sports broadcasting, entertainment events, corporate communications, live commerce, gaming, digital learning, and interactive audience engagement. Standard live streaming supports large-scale OTT broadcasting and digital events; low-latency streaming technology is rapidly expanding in live auctions, sports interactivity, virtual classrooms, and enterprise collaboration workflows; ultra-low-latency streaming is becoming increasingly critical in cloud gaming, real-time betting, immersive sports broadcasting, and interactive communication applications. Technological innovations revolve around WebRTC delivery, low-latency HLS, AI-assisted bitrate optimization, edge-native orchestration, and adaptive streaming intelligent acceleration. According to Agora, which launched a conversational AI engine in March 2025, its interactive live streaming infrastructure supports ultra-low latency of 400 milliseconds to 800 milliseconds. According to Wowza, in September 2024, the company expanded low-latency streaming interoperability through a partnership supporting LCEVC.
The mobile and handheld streaming environment is driving market transformation. iOS streaming applications are optimized for advanced video rendering, low-power playback efficiency, secure content protection, and immersive user interfaces; Android streaming platforms dominate global streaming through scalable device compatibility, adaptive playback optimization, AI-driven recommendation integration, and flexible monetization support. Innovation is accelerating in areas such as AI-assisted bandwidth optimization, vertical video interfaces, offline playback intelligence, and 5G low-latency streaming architecture. According to Brightcove, the company launched vertical video experiences and enhanced AI localization capabilities in December 2025. According to an NPAW report, smart TVs and set-top boxes account for 69% of video-on-demand viewing time in North America. AI dubbing and localization are becoming key competitive factors; Reuters reported in March 2025 that Amazon Prime Video introduced AI-assisted dubbing, and Business Wire reported in April 2026 that 3Play Media launched an AI dubbing solution for YouTube creators.
North America is expected to lead the market during the forecast period. The region is attractive due to widespread broadband penetration, a mature OTT ecosystem, robust cloud infrastructure, and high enterprise demand. Vendors are enhancing AI-driven video capabilities such as automatic captioning, multilingual localization, metadata generation, and adaptive content delivery.
Leading companies in the video streaming software market include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Comcast Technology Solutions, Vimeo.com, Microsoft, Synamedia, IBM, Brightcove, Kaltura, Edgio, Agile Content, Haivision, Panopto, Enghouse Video, Akamai Technologies, Dailymotion, Hive Streaming, and Blue Billywig.
