Unlimited scenes
Compose as many scenes as the show needs. Group sources, save templates, and switch between full looks in one action.
Desktop Studio · Early access · By invitation
The studio that runs the show.

Sources
Cameras, captures, media, overlays. Everything the show is made of, on one canvas.
Scenes + switcher
Compose looks, stage the next shot on preview, take it when it is ready.
Encode once
One program feed, one encode, whatever you add downstream.
Everywhere
Twitch, YouTube, Kick, Facebook, Instagram Live, and custom destinations — as many at once as your plan allows.
Build
Build the show by hand.
A show is built before it airs. The canvas works the way an edit bay does: direct, layered, and forgiving.
Direct canvas control
Drag, resize, crop, and layer every source on the canvas itself. Multi-select, copy, paste, and undo any move.
One source, every scene
Add a camera once and reuse it across scenes. Change it in one place and every scene follows.
Keying and color
Chroma, color, and luma key with saveable presets. Green screens and clean lower thirds without extra tools.
Vertical canvas
A 9:16 canvas for shows built for phones. Same scenes, same sources, portrait program. Arm a destination on either canvas.
Bring your OBS setup
Point it at an OBS scene collection and it rebuilds your scenes, sources, transforms, filters, and audio. Groups, transitions, and hotkeys are what it skips today. Export your scenes to a portable file to move them between machines.
A real audio desk
Every input on one mixer with fine gain and a live program meter, plus per-input monitoring, sync offset, balance, and mono downmix.
Fix the sound at the source
Noise suppression, gate, compressor, limiter, expander, EQ, and gain chain onto any input, saved as presets you reuse on the next show.
Switch
Run it like a control room.
Preview and program, a take button, and transitions that read as intent. The grammar of a control room, one operator deep.
Studio mode
Stage the next shot on preview while program stays live. Take when it is ready and not a frame sooner.
Transitions with intent
Cut, fade, swipe, slide, wipe, fade to color, and luma wipe. Stinger transitions play your own branded clip over the switch.
Hotkeys for everything
Scene switches, takes, and recording on keys you choose. Run the whole show without touching the mouse.
Multiview and projectors
See preview and program side by side on a multiview, and send program full screen to a second display.
Scheduled air time
Set a go-live time and an auto-stop. The show starts and ends on the clock even when you are mid-sentence.
Reach
Every platform. One take.
One program feed, encoded once, delivered to every platform you stream to. Each destination watches its own health.
Simulcast without the tax
The show is encoded once and sent to every destination at the same time, so adding a platform never costs you another encode. How many run at once is what your plan sets: two to begin with, uncapped from Starter up.
Per-destination health
Each platform connection reports its own status. If one drops, it reconnects on its own while the rest stay on air.
One chat, every platform
Chats from five platforms merge into one stream with real moderation: timeouts, bans, and message removal from a single pane. On Facebook and Instagram, message removal is what the platforms allow.

Keep
Keep everything worth keeping.
The live show is half the value. Everything you air is also everything you can cut, caption, and publish.
Recording, properly
Record with quality presets, pause and resume, and markers you drop live to find moments later.
Replay buffer
The last moments of the show are always in memory. Save the highlight after it happens instead of hoping you were recording.
The Cut room
Trim, clean up noise, level loudness, and remove silence and filler words. On-device captions, a highlight reel, and social reframing, all inside the studio. A paid capability, from Starter up.
- Trim
- Captions
- Highlights
- Reframe
One-click publish
Send finished cuts to YouTube and Facebook from the app. The queue handles exports while you start the next show. A paid capability, from Starter up.
Stream a file
Air a finished recording as a live broadcast. Premieres, reruns, and scheduled shows without re-performing them.
Extend the studio
Third-party extensions load into the studio, and one that crashes at launch is sidelined automatically so it cannot keep the show down.
Local automation
The board watches itself. You keep the call.
These run inside the studio on your own machine, with no service to sign into and nothing leaving the app. A paid capability, from Starter up.
AI Scene Autopilot
Point it at your be-right-back scene and sustained mic silence cuts to it on its own, then brings you back when you speak again.
Highlight detection
Chat reaction spikes mark the moments worth clipping, weighted by raids, gifts, and subs. Computed locally, ready when the show ends.
Assistant control
Give your own AI assistant a gated seat at the board — reading live state and cueing scenes on your cue, with going live behind your approval. In testing now; we will name the assistants it supports once we have proven each one.

Reliability
Built to stay on air.
A live show gets no second take. These are the choices that keep the program on air when something goes wrong.
The render core is isolated
The engine that composes and encodes your program runs separately from the interface. A busy panel or a heavy overlay never costs the broadcast a frame.
Destinations heal themselves
Every platform connection monitors its own health and reconnects with backoff when the network blinks. One platform's outage stays one platform's outage.
Keys live in the keychain
Stream keys are stored in the operating system's keychain, encrypted by the system. They are never written to a settings file.
Bad extensions get benched
An extension that crashes the studio at launch is quarantined automatically, and the studio restarts without it.
