Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you say your solution is “Pay As You Stream”?
We only charge for what the platform actually produces. For instance, other platforms will charge for the transcoding, whether you have viewers or not. We will only charge if someone actually watches the stream. More precisely, we will even only charge for the exact profile that are being transcoded!
