Mixer is a Video game live streaming platform owned by Microsoft. The service officially launched on January 5, 2016 as Beam, but was renamed to Mixer in May 25, 2017.

The service carries an emphasis on interactivity, with low stream latency and a platform for allowing viewers to perform actions that can influence a stream. The platform makes up 3.2% of the streaming market share.[2]

History[edit]

Beam launched on January 5, 2016. In May 2016, Beam won the Startup Battlefield competition at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference, receiving $50,000 in equity-free funding.[3][4]

On August 11, 2016, Beam was acquired by Microsoft for an undisclosed amount. The service's team was integrated into the Xbox division.[5] On October 26, 2016, Microsoft announced that Beam would be integrated into Windows 10.[6] Beam broadcasting was also integrated into Xbox One on the March 2017 software update.[7]

On May 25, 2017, Microsoft announced that Beam had been renamed Mixer, as the previous name could not be used globally.[8] The re-branding came alongside the introduction of several new features, such as the ability for a user to co-host up to three other streams on their channel at once, as well as the companion mobile app Mixer Create. It was also announced that Mixer would receive top-level integration within the Xbox One dashboard, with a new tab curating Mixer streams.[9] Mixer founders Boehm and Salsamendi have left Mixer. Boehm announced his departure from Mixer on October 2, 2019, and Salsamendi announced that he was leaving on October 10, 2019.[10]
