How to choose

Which platforms does it need to run on?

Choose a tool that supports the platform you plan to use. Options in this category include web, Android, iOS, Windows and Linux.

A public API is a separate consideration: it can matter if you want software to connect through a published interface. Check the API mark.

Do I need recurring schedules or playlist looping?

If you want streams to repeat on a schedule, compare recurring schedules and playlist looping.

These are separate comparison points, so check the details for the tool you are considering rather than assuming one control includes the other.

How many destinations can I stream to at once?

Compare the simultaneous-destinations figure with the number of services you need to reach at the same time.

The category comparison includes this figure, but destination support can vary by tool; confirm the details before choosing.

What video and viewer limits should I check?

Check maximum resolution, video upload limit and concurrent viewers against your needs.

If you expect audience chat, check whether chat moderation is included and what controls the tool provides.

How can I compare plans and licensing?

Compare whether a free plan is available, the paid starting price and whether a free trial is offered. Pricing may be listed in different currencies or require a request.

If you need to inspect or change the software's code, check its open-source status. A free plan and open-source code are different things.
