Multistreaming services let you broadcast to YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, and dozens of other platforms simultaneously from a single stream source. Here's how the main options compare in 2026.
What to Look for in a Multistreaming Service
- Number of simultaneous destinations: How many platforms can you stream to at once?
- Platform support: Does it include your specific platforms (including Facebook Pages, custom RTMP)?
- Latency: How much delay does the service add to your stream?
- Reliability: Uptime, redundancy, error handling
- Pricing: Free plan availability, per-stream costs
- Extra features: Pre-recorded live, CDN delivery, player hosting
The Main Options
Livepush
Livepush focuses on live streaming infrastructure: multistreaming, pre-recorded live, 24/7 channels, and HLS delivery. It's built for streamers who need more than just simulcasting.
Free plan: 3 destinations, 20 hours/month (Facebook streaming requires a paid plan, starting with Pro at $15/month)
| Plan | Price | Destinations | Streams |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 3 per platform | 1 |
| Pro | $15/mo | 3 per platform | 2 |
| Editors | $39/mo | 5 per platform | 3 |
| Creators | $69/mo | 9 per platform | 6 |
| Business | $119/mo | 15 per platform | 12 |
Key differentiators:
- Built-in pre-recorded live streaming (upload MP4, schedule as live)
- 24/7 looping playlist streams
- Embedded HLS player for website streaming
- SRT and RTMP ingest
- Akamai CDN for live event hosting
Best for: Streamers who want multistreaming + pre-recorded live + CDN delivery in one platform.
Restream
Restream is the largest multistreaming service by user count, with a broad platform integrations list and a studio web app for browser-based streaming.
Free plan: 1 destination (very limited)
Starting price: ~$19/month for basic multistreaming
Key differentiators:
- Browser-based studio (no OBS required)
- Large integration list (30+ platforms)
- Chat aggregation across platforms
Limitations:
- More expensive than Livepush for equivalent features
- No built-in pre-recorded live on lower plans
- No CDN/player hosting
OneStream Live
OneStream Live is built around scheduled and pre-recorded social streaming: you upload a video (or pull it straight from cloud storage) and schedule it to go live across your connected platforms. It also offers a browser studio for real-time streams.
Free plan: 2 destinations, 720p, 15-minute cap per pre-recorded stream
Starting price: ~$15/month (Basic: 5 destinations, 720p; annual billing lowers it)
Key differentiators:
- Strong scheduling workflow for pre-recorded streams, including direct imports from Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive
- Browser studio with up to 16 participants, plus a built-in teleprompter
- Hosted live pages and an embed player included on all tiers
Limitations:
- Resolution tops out at 1080p, and the Free and Basic tiers are capped at 720p
- Pre-recorded stream duration is capped per plan (15 minutes on Free, up to 20 hours on Enterprise)
- 24/7 streaming is a paid add-on (~$30/month per always-on stream) unless you are on Enterprise
- No SRT ingest

Dacast
