Stream Repeater vs Switchboard Live: Multistreaming Without the Enterprise Price Tag
An honest, detailed look at how Stream Repeater stacks up against Switchboard Live — no spin, just what each one actually does.
Switchboard Live is a capable professional multistreaming service aimed at broadcasters and agencies, with pricing to match. Stream Repeater delivers the same core promise — one feed relayed to every platform — with transparent plans that start free, plus a built-in engagement layer.
Why creators and agencies choose Stream Repeater
Transparent pricing that starts free
Professional multistream services often gate destinations and quality behind higher tiers. Stream Repeater starts free (multistream to two platforms), scales in clear steps, and never watermarks your stream or throttles pass-through bitrate.
Copy-first, zero-degradation relay
Stream Repeater re-muxes copy-first — it copies your feed to each destination without a cloud re-encode, so there’s no added latency or quality loss in the relay.
Built-in engagement, not just relay
Overlays, chat games, unified chat and moderation, giveaways, and event automations (smart lights, Discord, webhooks, OBS) all live in the same dashboard — no separate subscriptions.
Workspaces for agencies
Isolated, brandable workspaces let agencies hand each client their own control panel, with per-tenant limits and billing.
What you get with every Stream Repeater plan
Whatever the size of your setup, Stream Repeater is built as proper, self-contained control software — not a capped consumer app with the good bits locked away.
