  ActionStreamer is a proprietary technology and software platform that streams media from wearable, IoT, and other connected devices. Founded in 2016 and based in Cincinnati, Ohio, the company is led by CEO Bob Lento and was co-founded by former NFL linebacker Dhani Jones and entrepreneur Chris McLennan. Its patented comprehensive technology platform delivers data movement solutions and real-time omnichannel media offerings across the sports, entertainment, telecommunications, industrial, and defense markets. Customers include the U.S. Air Force, FOX Sports, Amazon Web Services, and T-Mobile. ActionStreamer closed a $2.4M Series A round and intends to use the funds to develop its patented platform. The platform has been recognized for delivering breakthrough data movement solutions and real-time omnichannel media offerings across multiple sectors. ActionStreamer combines patented software and networking technology with ultra-lightweight wearable hardware to stream HD point-of-view video from inside games. Its wireless system embeds miniature cameras and custom components into gear such as helmets and hats to transmit real-time video in congested, bandwidth-constrained venues. The company has deployed custom HatCams with partners and recently debuted POV coverage in Monumental Sports & Entertainment broadcasts. Founders include CTO Chris McLennan, who previously founded Ilesfay (acquired by Autodesk in 2014), co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer Dhani Jones, and CEO Max Eisenberg. ActionStreamer is pursuing integrations across multiple sports—including football, baseball, hockey, and golf—to broaden use cases and distribution. Financially, the company has just closed an oversubscribed seed financing round totaling $1.88M to support development and commercial rollouts.
