The Annual Bitmovin
Video Developer Report
Now in its 8th year, the Video Developer Report is one of the most far-reaching and valuable documents available to streaming professionals. In this year’s report, we’ve revamped our questions to examine topics such as sustainability and understand how big of a priority AI is for developers.
THE LATEST REPORT
The 8th Annual Video Developer Report

This is our 8th year of running our Bitmovin Video Developer Report. The survey was conducted between September and December 2024. The responses provided strong representation of the global market, coming from a diverse range of 167 video developers and industry experts working at companies located in 34 different countries. Participation by region was led by EMEA with 48% of our participants, followed by North America at 36%, the Asia Pacific region at 9% and Latin America with 7% of total responses.
As a number of the questions are multiple- choice, you will notice that a number of these multiple-choice/answer questions have an aggregate that will not add up to 100%. In these cases, the number indicates the percentage of respondents that chose each option. Like last year, we have used a ranking option for a number of the questions and have adapted some of the questions to align with the recent advancements in technology development. Please keep in mind that the survey was open for everyone to participate, but the results may be somewhat skewed toward the Bitmovin customer base.
