Realnetworks Inc

A Seattle software company that pioneered internet streaming with RealAudio in 1995 and the once-ubiquitous RealPlayer media software. Founded in 1994 by former Microsoft executive Rob Glaser, it was first called Progressive Networks—a nod to its original plan to distribute politically progressive content—before renaming itself RealNetworks in 1997. Today it builds AI tools like SAFR facial recognition and KONTXT scam-call blocking.
