Banyan Software, the best permanent home for successful software businesses, is pleased to announce the acquisition of WMVision, a Kansas-based provider of integrated camera infrastructure and cloud-based video management software for broadcasters and tourism organizations.Â
Founded in 1996 by Peter Levy, WMVision began with a simple goal: help broadcasters capture and deliver live weather and scenic video without relying on fragile, custom-built systems. Over the past three decades, Peter and his team transformed WMVision into a critical infrastructure partner for media organizations across North America, combining smart camera networks with reliable, cloud-native software.
Today, WMVision’s platforms are deeply embedded in daily broadcast workflows, supporting real-time content capture, live streaming, and multi-location video sharing. As the industry has matured and consolidated, WMVision has remained trusted and independent, serving stations across ownership groups with neutrality, reliability, and a strong focus on service.
After nearly 30 years at the helm, Peter began planning for the future. His goals were clear: preserve the culture and customer relationships that define WMVision, and ensure the company could grow with the long-term in mind. Banyan’s permanent ownership model and decentralized approach aligned with these priorities, offering both continuity and support.
