Ably is the leader in serverless WebSockets for message delivery at the edge. Developers are mostly building their own WebSocket and last-mile event streaming functionality one application at a time. Frequently, even with months of custom engineering effort, it's not good enough - the functionality they're left with often doesn't meet core application requirements and struggles to reliably scale. That's where Ably comes in. Our platform makes it simple for engineering teams to reliably deliver the realtime data that powers live experiences for millions of people, taking the complexity out so engineers can focus on core product innovation instead of realtime infrastructure.
