Live events · on the CDN
Live event streaming for the night everyone tunes in.
A conference, a concert, a graduation, a town hall: one evening when the audience is ten times your usual. Every event we stream is set up on our video CDN, so each viewer plays from the nearest of 5 cities and your venue's encoder lands at the nearest one too.

New · Production
No programmes yet? Make them in the dashboard.
The Production tab makes songs, jingles, voice-overs, ad spots, artwork and music videos from a few choices, then puts each finished file in your video library, ready for your TV station's playlists or a YouTube stream. You need no studio, no editor and no experience.
- Pick a formatA mood, a length, your brand's name, a voice. Nothing to write.
- It is written for youThe lyrics, the script and the picture's description, checked against the content rules before anything is made.
- It goes on airThe file lands in your library as a 1080p MP4, loudness-matched for broadcast and labelled as AI-generated.
Production uses your own account at Google Gemini, ElevenLabs, OpenAI or Stability AI: paste its API key once, and that company bills you for what you make, at its own prices. Included on every paid plan: Starter, Pro and Platinum.

Two ways to book
One night, or every week.
Both run on the same CDN with the same encoder entry and player. The difference is how often you broadcast.
Order exactly the event you have
Choose the days, the hours, the audience (100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 50,000 viewers) and the picture quality in the event configurator, and see the price before you pay. The channel is built on the CDN by itself once the payment clears.
Platinum: event mode built in
10 channels, 25,000 viewers at once and 500 TB of transfer a month for $499, so your big nights need no separate order. Between events the same plan runs your weekly shows and your library.
Pro for a regular audience
3 channels and 5,000 viewers at once for $99 a month. Book a one-off event on top for the evening that outgrows it.
The night itself
What happens between the first test and the last viewer.
Rehearse
Your channel is live the moment it is set up. Send a test from the venue the day before and watch it the way your audience will.
Connect the venue
Use SRT if the venue's line is shaky: it resends what gets lost on the way to the nearest city. RTMP and WebRTC work too.
Go wide
Restream to YouTube, Facebook or Twitch, up to 5 at once, while your own player keeps the audience you invited.
Watch the room
The Live tab lists everyone watching, with their country and player, as it happens.
Hand it on
Export the viewer list as a spreadsheet for your sponsors and your own records before the night is over.
Where your audience watches from
The crowd is spread over 5 cities, not one server.
When thousands press play in the same minute, each is sent to the closest city, and each city fetches every piece of video once for everyone it serves. A city that stops answering drops out within 60–120 seconds and the next nearest takes over.
- San Francisco
- Miami
- New York
- Amsterdam
- Bucharest
Ringed cities also host channels; every city serves viewers and takes in encoders.
| Viewer or encoder in | Served from, nearest first |
|---|---|
| North America, and anywhere not listed below | New York |
| Latin America and the Caribbean | Miami → New York |
| Western Europe and Africa | Amsterdam → Bucharest → New York |
| Eastern Europe, the Middle East and South Asia | Bucharest → Amsterdam → New York |

Every plan
Everything each plan includes.
Live, on demand, the TV station and Production: every feature, plan by plan. Platinum runs events in event mode with no separate order; for a one-off event on any account, book it by the day.

Answers
Planning questions.
How large an audience can an event have?
The event configurator goes up to 50,000 viewers at once. Platinum carries 25,000 per channel, every month. For more than that, ask us in the live chat and we will size it with you.
How soon is the event channel ready?
It is built automatically on the CDN once your payment clears, with the encoder settings in your dashboard and your welcome email. Order a few days ahead so there is time to rehearse.
What does an event cost?
It depends on the days, hours, audience and picture quality you choose, and the configurator shows the total before you pay. If you broadcast big events most months, Platinum at $499 a month is usually the better buy.
Can we stream to YouTube as well as our own site?
Yes. Add YouTube, Facebook, Twitch or any RTMP address in the Live tab, up to 5 at once, without a second encoder.
Is the event delivered by the CDN even on a one-off order?
Yes. Every event order is set up on the CDN: viewers play from the nearest of our 5 cities, and your encoder connects to the nearest one.
