Overview
StreamYard is a browser-based live-streaming studio used to broadcast shows, interviews and webinars to platforms such as YouTube and LinkedIn, and to host webinars on its own On-Air pages. The site is operated by Bending Spoons Operations S.p.A., part of the Italian software group Bending Spoons.[20]
A free plan includes six on-screen participants, two hours a month of local recording and the StreamYard logo on streams. Essential costs $18.99 a month or $14.99 billed yearly, with unlimited streaming, two multistream destinations and 1080p. Core costs $44.99 or $35.99 yearly, removes the logo and adds three destinations, ten on-screen participants, custom RTMP, cloud recording, AI clips and 50 hours of storage. Advanced costs $88.99 or $68.99 yearly, adds eight destinations, 15 backstage participants, 4K local recordings, transcript downloads and On-Air webinars for up to 100 viewers.[20] Paid plans include a seven-day trial, and payment is accepted in US dollars or Indian rupees.[20]
StreamYard’s strength is production quality and multistreaming rather than registration and lead capture. Its On-Air webinar capacity of 100 viewers is the smallest in this list, so it suits teams whose main audience watches on social platforms.
