Today creators don't need to limit themselves to just one platform. Livestream to Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, Linkedin, Twitter, or even a custom platform of your choice all at the same time. Let’s discuss how and the benefits of multistreaming.
What is multistreaming?
Multistreaming is the ability to go live on more than one platform simultaneously. Content creators only have to stream once and simulcast their content on multiple networks. You just need to have an account per platform then, click Go Live and select as many platforms as you would like to multistream to. Our servers will take care of the rest.
Benefits of multistreaming
- Extend your reach. The more platforms you broadcast to, the more people familiarize themselves with your personal brand. Maximize your chances of getting discovered by new audiences. You no longer have to choose between mainstream and niche platforms. Choose both all at the same time.
- Save time. Avoid broadcasting the same session numerous times. It's more efficient than downloading and re-uploading your content to other platforms.
- Easy setup. On Talk Studio, all you need to do is click Go Live and select all platforms you want to stream to and that's it! Set up your streaming accounts once and never do it again.
- Interact with your community. With multistreaming, we'll populate all chat messages into one chat display for your broadcast, allowing you to interact with your audience all in one place with ease.
- Earn Revenue. Generate extra revenue from your streams per social platform. With Talk Studio, you can set up your donations and donation goals.

Multistreaming solutions: what are my options?
Purchase hardware encoders. This is sophisticated hardware tech that you’d purchase and then stream. The hardware encoder works by sending the feed to multiple streaming platforms. This is likely beyond the scope for most folks, but if you are curious - please reach out to [email protected] and we will help.
Choose Talk Studio or Streamlabs Desktop. These are easy to use and will do all the work for you from the cloud. The cloud or the software encoder works by ending the feed to a cloud-based service and from there sending the feed to multiple streaming platforms.
