## About Peer5 - WebRTC
Peer5 offers a WebRTC based P2P eCDN that runs in-browser to solve congestion issues. Our mesh networks are self-balancing and automatically scale as the number of viewers rises. Since it is a WebRTC based eCDN it doesn&#39;t require any installation on end-users computers nor changes to the physical network infrastructure. Instead, we integrate with any existing player within the event web page. Peer5 was designed from scratch for WebRTC, written completely in JavaScript. We contribute to the WebRTC community and are active members of the W3C steering committee. Peer5 is backed by Y Combinator and additional top Silicon Valley investors.

Moving video to large audiences over corporate networks is always difficult.  Peer5 helps reduce the complexity of moving video to large audiences without requiring the corporate enterprise to install, and manage, plugins on every employees computer or require content caching servers or hardware or virtual hardware to be set up on the network.   Peer5 works through HTML5 and requires no set up or management by the enterprise and everything is transparent to the viewers.
