Agora helps developers and non-technical creators zoom past
the competition with the launch of Agora App Builder
SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
June 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Agora,
Inc. (NASDAQ: API), a pioneer and leading platform for
real-time engagement APIs, today announced the launch of Agora App
Builder to empower both developers and creators with absolutely no
coding experience to break out of one-size-fits-all video
conferencing solutions and start building custom apps tailored to
their specific use case and brand. Powered by Agora's highly
scalable and reliable Software-Defined Real-Time Network™, Agora
App Builder will be free to leverage for all innovators and
companies that are looking to stand out from the crowd to connect
with audiences, engage with customers, and drive business
outcomes.
"Everyone is now familiar with communicating, sharing, and
collaborating over video chat and live streaming. However the same
old generic apps only go so far," said Sid
Sharma, Senior Director of Developer Relations and Partner
Engineering at Agora. "Some creators and companies want to offer
more unique, branded and use-case specific apps to their fans,
customers, and partners without spending a ton of money on
development or sacrificing features and streaming quality. That's
exactly why we built Agora App Builder."
As a company created by and for developers, the launch of Agora
App Builder furthers Agora's mission to make APIs accessible for
anyone. Features of Agora App Builder include:
- Superior customization and go-to-market speed: No-code
customization and go-live for non-technical creators and fully
downloadable source code for developers seeking complete
customization power.
- All the conferencing features you've come to expect and
more: Beautiful User Interface (UI), multi-screen sharing,
dial-in support, host controls, cloud recording, call analytics,
and more.
- Quality, scalability, and reliability: Ultra-low latency
(60% lower than top competitors), 250+ global points of presence
for rapid network routing, and 99.99% availability.
"Our immersive 3D environment relies on a lot of audio and video
communication." Aladin Ben, CEO, and
co-founder of Waimz. "As a start-up, it is very expensive and
time-consuming to build all those features from scratch. After
trying multiple solutions, we found Agora, and have to say it
exceeded all our expectations. With Agora App Builder, we built our
prototype and launched a web-based light version within
minutes!"
"My Condolences is a self-serve, memorial service platform using
social media, crowdfunding, and livestreaming to help family and
friends gather virtually after the loss of a loved one," said
Shauna Dover, CEO and founder of
MyCondolences.io. "Agora App Builder was perfect for us– it was
easy to build the video app in just a matter of minutes, the user
interface is simple, and the video quality is unmatched. With
Agora, MyCondolences.io is helping families 'be there…without being
there' with an experience that is fit-for-purpose."
"Using Agora App Builder, we were able to easily spin up an
integration with our conversational intelligence APIs to showcase
different use cases to our customers," said Surbhi Rathore, CEO of Symbl.ai, a
Techstars-backed conversational intelligence-as-a-service solution.
"It was easy to customize with our unique branding and scaled right
out of the box, with absolutely no coding required."
