Works with YouTube
Stream to YouTube Live, LinkedIn Live or any RTMP address, on your own accounts.
Connect your YouTube channel and each event gets an unlisted live broadcast and its own stream key: stream to it from OBS, StreamYard, Restream or OneStream, and the live room here plays it beside questions, polls and chat. Or run the call in a private room here, on your own Daily or LiveKit account, and send it out live to YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitch, Restream or any RTMP address, up to five at once.

What you get
On top of YouTube
A broadcast per event
With your channel connected, each event gets an unlisted YouTube live broadcast and stream key. It starts and stops with your stream, and YouTube keeps the recording on your channel.
Played in the room
The room plays the broadcast in YouTube's player, with questions, polls and chat beside it, so registrants watch where they registered.
The room's call, sent out
From a private room on your own Daily or LiveKit account, send the call live to up to five places: YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitch, Restream or another RTMP address.
Speakers' channels too
A speaker or partner can add up to three channels of their own from their kit page, so the session goes out on their channels as well.
Keys kept secret
Stream keys are encrypted before they're stored, never shown again in full (the list shows the last four characters) and never written to a log.

How it works
- 1
Connect YouTube
Settings → Connections → YouTube: sign in with the Google account that owns the channel. Live streaming must be turned on for the channel in YouTube Studio.
- 2
Or add where it goes
On the event's Live tab, add each destination's server and stream key.
- 3
Go live
Stream to the event's YouTube key from your streaming tool, or start sending the room's call out from the Live tab.
- 4
Keep the recording
YouTube keeps the broadcast's recording on your channel, where you can share it in the follow-up.
Good to know
- Your accounts, your minutes
- Streaming runs on your own YouTube channel and your own Daily or LiveKit account, billed there. We're never the streaming provider.
- Streaming out needs a private room
- Only a private room made here on your own Daily key or LiveKit server can send its call out. A Zoom or Meet session can't be sent out from here.
- YouTube's own requirements
- YouTube asks for a verified channel with no live streaming restrictions in the past 90 days before it allows live streaming.
- LinkedIn Live needs access
- LinkedIn decides who can stream and gives the custom stream's URL and key an hour before the start.
Questions
Is the YouTube broadcast public?
It's unlisted by default: people find it through your event, not by searching YouTube.
Can I stream to YouTube and LinkedIn at once?
Yes. Add both on the Live tab and send the room's call to both, or send one stream to Restream and let it go to both.
Do you charge for streaming minutes?
No. The minutes are on your own accounts: YouTube, and Daily or LiveKit for the call. We never resell them.
