■ New · Production studio
Fill your channel with programming you made this morning.
A channel needs more than a camera. Production, a tab in your Primcast dashboard, turns a few choices into songs, station jingles, voice-overs, sponsor spots, cover art and music videos, and files each one in your video library, ready for the TV station's playlists or a YouTube stream.
- You choose, it writes. Pick the format, the mood and the length; the lyrics or the script are written for you and checked against the content rules first.
- Ready to broadcast. Every file arrives as a 1080p MP4 at broadcast loudness, labelled as AI-generated.
- Your AI, your bill. Connect your own Google Gemini, ElevenLabs, OpenAI or Stability AI account with its API key. That company charges you directly for what you make.
On every paid plan: Starter, Pro and Platinum.

Finished files go to your video library, marked as AI-generated.
Connect the encoder you already own.
Every channel's dashboard prints its own settings, ready to paste. RTMP and SRT connect at the city nearest to you; WebRTC goes straight to your channel's server.
The one every encoder speaks
Server rtmp://ingest.video.primcast.com/ followed by your channel's name, then your stream name and login. OBS, vMix, Wirecast and hardware boxes work as they are.
For lines you cannot trust
A stadium's shared uplink or a phone hotspot abroad: SRT recovers lost packets so the picture holds. Each channel gets its own port and passphrase.
From a browser or OBS 30
WebRTC publishing for a guest with only a laptop, at around half a second of delay into your channel.
The Live tab, button by button.
Live or not, and the numbers behind it
The encoder's address, the rate it is sending, how long it has been on air, how much is going out and how many are watching.
The audience as a list
Each viewer with country and player while the stream runs, downloadable as a spreadsheet for your sponsor or your board.
Socials from the same feed
Add YouTube, Facebook, Twitch or a custom RTMP target, up to 5 of them, and turn each on or off mid-show.
Restart, disconnect, new password
Kick a frozen encoder, restart the channel, or issue a fresh publish password and restart so an old encoder can no longer reconnect.
More than one camera on air.
Pro carries 3 live channels and Platinum 10. Each new one is added from the Live tab and arrives with its own name, encoder settings, player, CDN address and viewer limit; the plan's monthly transfer serves them all.
channel on Free and Starter: one show, done well.
on Pro: a main feed, a second room and a spare for rehearsals.
on Platinum: a network of shows, or every stage at a festival.
Every plan, every feature.
The CDN is part of every plan, Free included. Platinum is the complete tier, with the most channels, the biggest audience and event mode for one-off nights.

Questions from first-time broadcasters.
Do I get my own server?
No, and you do not need one: your channel runs on our streaming servers and is delivered by our CDN, maintained by us. When a whole machine of your own is the right answer, we sell dedicated streaming servers as well.
Which plans include SRT?
Starter, Pro and Platinum. Free takes RTMP and WebRTC; on all plans RTMP and SRT enter at the nearest city.
Is there a limit on viewers?
Yes, per channel: 1,000 on Free and Starter, 5,000 on Pro, 25,000 on Platinum. It is enforced on the channel, which is why we can promise it.
Can I go live on Facebook and YouTube at once?
On any plan. Add them as restream targets in the Live tab, up to 5 together, while your own player keeps running.
Will my current stream links still work?
Yes. The addresses you already use keep playing, and the CDN address appears beside them in your dashboard.
■ On air
Your first broadcast costs a $5 setup fee.
