Browser-based live streaming and video recording studio
StreamYard is a browser-based live streaming and recording studio that makes professional live video accessible to anyone — no software to install. From your browser, you can host live shows, interviews, webinars, and podcasts; bring on remote guests; add your logo, overlays, banners, and backgrounds; and broadcast to YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Twitch, and more at the same time (multistreaming). Its ease of use and polished output made it a favorite of creators, marketers, and businesses running live content.
The platform focuses on simple, professional broadcasts. A studio interface lets hosts and guests join with a link (up to several on screen), share screens, display comments live on-screen from multiple platforms, and control layouts and branding in real time. StreamYard also records for later editing, supports local recordings and higher resolutions on paid plans, and offers a clip maker and destinations management. Now part of the Hopin/RingCentral family, it remains a standalone tool centered on approachable live and recorded video production.
StreamYard serves creators, marketers, podcasters, and businesses producing live and recorded video. It offers a Free plan (with a StreamYard logo/watermark, 720p, and limited hours), a Basic plan (no watermark, 1080p, multiple destinations), and a Professional plan (more destinations, higher quality, and AI features), with an Enterprise option; annual billing saves around 20%, and paid plans commonly run in the roughly $25–$99/month range depending on tier and billing. It competes with Riverside, Restream, Ecamm Live, and OBS, differentiating on browser-based simplicity plus professional branding and multistreaming.
