What Anthias does

A complete digital signage platform that runs on hardware you already own.

Multiple content types

Display images, videos, and web pages. Upload files or point to any URL.

Content scheduling

Set start and end dates for each asset. Control duration and playlist order.

REST API

Automate content updates and manage devices programmatically.

Get running in minutes

Two ready-to-go paths: flash an SD card with Raspberry Pi Imager, or install over an existing Raspberry Pi OS / Debian system.

Raspberry Pi Imager

Open Raspberry Pi Imager, pick Other specific-purpose OS → Digital signage and kiosks → Anthias, choose your Pi model, and flash. The SD card boots straight into Anthias — no SSH, no installer prompts.

Raspberry Pi 2 through Pi 5.

One-line install

On a running Raspberry Pi OS Lite or Debian system, run:

bash <(curl -sL https://install-anthias.srly.io)

Raspberry Pi, x86, and 64-bit ARM SBCs.
