Why these tools

Getting a live stream working usually comes down to a few things: enough upload bandwidth, the right bitrate and keyframe settings, the correct ingest URL and stream key, and a way to check the output. These tools cover each step.

When you are ready to send one stream to many platforms, Multistream Platform accepts RTMP and SRT ingest and relays to YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Kick, TikTok and custom endpoints. See features and pricing, or read the learning guides.
