About us

From broadcast TV to breakthrough software — a story of innovation

Digital Streams Media builds software that solves real-world problems with elegance and precision. Our path may not follow the traditional software house route, but it is one defined by results.
Our story

Decades of innovation, applied to practical problems

Digital Streams Media was founded by Peter Smith, a former media executive and award-winning multimedia innovator. The company draws on decades of experience developing high-performance systems across Australia, Asia, the United Kingdom, Africa and the United States.

That history is why our software tends to look different from a typical startup product. It is built by people who have had to make systems work for real organisations, under real constraints, with real consequences when they fail.

Meet the team
  1. The beginning

    Broadcast-quality corporate video

    Digital Streams started in media production, making broadcast-quality corporate video at a time when that meant real production values and real budgets. The discipline of getting a message across clearly, on time and on brief has never left the business.

  2. Scaling up

    Compliance and communication systems for multinationals

    Video work led to systems work: compliance and communication platforms used by multinational organisations across Australia, Asia, the UK, Africa and the United States. Systems that had to survive audit, not just demos.

  3. Today

    Smart, user-friendly SaaS platforms

    The focus now is on building and running our own cloud platforms — Bug Traker, ArtFlow Pro, iLearn Today, Member Manager and Insite Learning — alongside custom development for clients who need something purpose-built.

How we work

Where practical meets purposeful

Three things shape every engagement, whether it is a subscription to one of our platforms or a custom build.

Solve the actual problem

We start with the work you are trying to get done, not with a technology we want to sell. Sometimes the honest answer is that you do not need custom software at all.

Global experience, local focus

Developers and consultants across Ukraine, India, Pakistan, the UK and the US — with a director in Kiama who answers the phone. You get the reach without losing the relationship.

No lock-in

Free tiers on most products, no expensive lock-in contracts and your data stays yours. If we are the right fit, you will stay because it works.
