Phase 0.3 Dark mode by design

Sports live video infrastructure that turns iOS and Android devices into resilient SRT cameras.

PilotStream is the B2B control plane for sports operators, OEM apps and media teams that need SRT ingest, instant clipping, HLS playback and authenticated webhooks without paying SaaS video platform tax.

BYOD for iOS and Android SRT-first transport Clip-ready webhook engine HLS delivery everywhere

pilotstream.control-plane

ingest srt://72.61.78.74:8890?streamid=publish:broadcast_fa92

clip pipeline mark → transcode → webhook → publish

delivery mode HLS playback + signed callbacks

Capture model BYOD mobile

No proprietary encoder fleet required.

Reliability Retry-backed webhooks

Outbox persistence and HMAC signing included.

Commercial edge Infrastructure margin

Built to undercut fragmented cloud video stacks.

SRT Resilient transport for unstable venues

BYOD Use the cameras already in the field

HLS Standard playback on any browser or app shell

API Provision, ingest, clip and notify programmatically

Narrative enterprise

Designed like infrastructure, not like a marketing toy.

PilotStream sells confidence to CTOs and economic leverage to investors: fewer boxes in the field, fewer vendors in the stack and tighter control over sports video margins.

BYOD capture

Bring your own iPhone or Android rig.

Field teams exchange a secure session token, publish over SRT and stay traceable at the device and session level.

Native mobile workflows
Secure device fingerprinting
No satellite truck economics

Sports-grade resilience

SRT where the network is hostile.

Venues are noisy, uplinks are unstable and consumer hardware is unpredictable. SRT is the right bias when the match cannot stop.

Packet loss tolerance
Low-latency contribution
Production-friendly recovery model

Instant monetization

Clip highlights and ship HLS without bolt-on vendors.

Automatic clipping and playlist delivery are first-class citizens, not an expensive postscript added after ingest.

Clip-ready event hooks
HLS playback endpoints
Lean unit economics

Enterprise control

Signed webhooks, retries and delivery audit trails.

Operational teams get visibility into every outbound event with durable retry logic and per-endpoint HMAC secrets.

Tenant-scoped endpoints
Outbox-backed retries
Cryptographic authenticity

Video pipeline

One pipeline. Six critical handoffs. Zero unnecessary vendors.

From a sideline phone to a live highlight notification, the stack stays observable, programmable and commercially sane.

Field capture

Operators use iOS or Android devices already available in the venue.

BYOD mobile

Secure exchange

Broadcast codes burn once, register the device and issue a short-lived session token.

Device traceability

SRT ingest

Contribution streams enter through SRT for better resilience under real-world packet loss.

Venue-grade transport

Clip engine

Video processing turns key moments into assets ready to distribute or monetize.

Automatic clipping

HLS playback

Consumers and partner apps get standard HLS outputs without custom player lock-in.

Browser-safe delivery

Webhook dispatch

Clients receive signed JSON events with retry-backed delivery and complete audit history.

HMAC + retries

Why PilotStream beats fragmented stacks

The landing page should speak API, not ad copy.

Everything below maps to the real control plane already in motion: broadcasts, mobile exchange flows and HMAC-signed webhook endpoints.

Program the live pipeline like infrastructure.

Provision a broadcast, let the sideline device exchange a secure code, then register a signed webhook for downstream systems. That is the product story in three requests.

Provisioning

Create broadcasts through the control plane and assign per-stream ingest keys.

Field auth

Burn exchange codes once, register the device and return SRT credentials plus a session token.

Control plane credibility

What makes this feel investable is what makes it operable.

PilotStream is not just a player page. It is a control plane with traceability, cryptographic trust and a clean story for platform margin.

Traceable devices

Broadcast sessions bind to a real device footprint and produce secure session tokens for future actions.

Signed B2B notifications

Every outbound JSON event is HMAC-signed with a per-endpoint secret and delivered with audit history.

Retry-backed reliability

Webhook deliveries survive unstable customer servers through queue persistence and exponential backoff.

Real-time control plane

Monitor broadcasts, inspect tenant health and audit webhook delivery from a single dashboard at app.pilotstream.io.

FAQ

Questions a CTO, operator or investor will ask in the first meeting.

The page should close operational doubt before it asks for commercial trust.

Why lead with SRT instead of defaulting to RTMP?

Because sports venues are noisy networks. SRT gives a more resilient contribution layer under packet loss and unstable uplinks, which is exactly where sideline capture lives.

Can a client keep their own iOS or Android app?

Yes. The control plane narrative is explicitly BYOD and OEM-friendly. PilotStream can sit behind your own mobile shell while preserving secure exchange and session traceability.

How do downstream systems trust clip notifications?

Webhook payloads are signed with HMAC per endpoint, include timestamps and delivery identifiers, and are backed by durable retries plus attempt history.

What is the commercial wedge against SaaS video platforms?

Sports-specific workflows packaged into one product reduce vendor sprawl, implementation drag and recurring cost layers that usually kill gross margin.
