About The Customer
Kiswe is a company that creates live-streams where entertainers can deliver personalized content to their fans in real time, regardless of physical location. They have produced everything from private events to major broadcasts, hosting live events for some of the world’s largest broadcasters, sports leagues, and music labels such as the NBA, MLS, and Turner Sports.

Using interactive live-streams with features like real-time chat, polls, watch parties, and integrations with exclusive merch, customers can own the content of their events while fostering fan engagement and participation.
The Challenge
Kiswe, a company that creates live-streams for entertainers to deliver personalized content to their fans in real time, was facing a significant challenge. They needed to scale their chat infrastructure to handle global events of any size. Before partnering with PubNub, Kiswe’s VP of Engineering, Scott Miller, and his team were seeking a solution that would ensure their platform operates reliably and in real time to handle a large influx of traffic for their virtual concerts. They needed a partner that could scale without concurrency limits or latency issues. The reliability of the platform was crucial for Kiswe, as it would allow them to focus on delivering interactive live events to global audiences without worrying about delays.
The Solution
Kiswe turned to PubNub to power their chat infrastructure. With PubNub, Kiswe was able to host large events with real-time chat at scale. PubNub's reliable chat infrastructure allowed Kiswe’s customers to create engaging social experiences for their fans with real-time features like chat, polls, GIFs, and presence to know how many fans are online. These features were added alongside a live-stream, creating a two-way conversation between broadcasters and their fans. In addition to building an interactive chat experience for audiences of any size, PubNub’s flexible and easy-to-use documentation allowed Kiswe to quickly create custom messaging solutions around who and how many people can receive messages during a live event. As a result, they were able to scale their platform with secure features to host their customers' live-stream events.
