Livepeer Studio is a developer-friendly gateway and hosted platform for the Livepeer network. Use it to add live streaming and video-on-demand (VOD) to your application with minimal setup.
For Livepeer’s hosted real-time StreamDiffusion AI platform Daydream, see Daydream and the Daydream product page.

What you can do

  • Livestream - Create streams, ingest via RTMP or WebRTC, play back with low-latency WebRTC or HLS, record sessions, and multistream to other platforms.
  • Video on demand - Upload assets (TUS or PUT), transcode, play back with the Livepeer Player or any HLS/MP4 player, and optionally use encrypted assets.
  • Access control - Gate playback with webhooks or JWTs (e.g. subscriptions, token-gating).
  • Events and analytics - Use webhooks for stream/asset events and the viewership API for engagement and performance metrics.
