Ecamm Live
The professional macOS production studio for high-stakes live streaming and video creation.
The premier cloud-native broadcasting studio for effortless high-production live streaming.
Lightstream Studio represents a paradigm shift in live production, moving the heavy lifting of video encoding and compositing from the user's local hardware to a distributed cloud architecture. By leveraging WebRTC for low-latency ingest and RTMP for delivery, Lightstream allows creators to produce professional-grade broadcasts from underpowered devices or even directly from gaming consoles like Xbox and PlayStation without requiring a capture card. The technical architecture is built on a robust 'Engine' that synchronizes multiple assets—including remote guest feeds, dynamic overlays, and high-bitrate video—within a browser-based canvas. For 2026, Lightstream has positioned itself as the essential infrastructure for the 'frictionless creator economy,' focusing on remote collaboration and 1080p/60fps cloud-side rendering. It effectively democratizes high-end production by replacing expensive GPU-heavy local setups (like traditional OBS configurations) with a scalable, subscription-based SaaS model that ensures stream stability through cloud-side auto-reconnection and intelligent bitrate management.
Offloads all video rendering and layer stacking to Lightstream's cloud servers, reducing local CPU usage to nearly zero.
