STREAMPUNK 16 Tool of the Month
ivestream was an early innovator among streaming video platforms. Founded in 2007 as Mogulus, the company provided
easy-to-use, but sophisticated browser- based tools for building and operating a live-streaming channel. The company changed its name to Livestream in 2009 and became adopted widely for live events, especially concerts. Easy social media integration made the platform a good engagement platform for fans. Livestream has also been adopted by sports teams and corporates. Striving to become a complete end-to-end streaming service, Livestream started rolling out its own custom hardware, integrated with its software solutions. The products try to combine Livestream’s trademark high-end simplicity. The company was acquired last year by Vimeo which plans to integrate Livestream technology into the Vimeo creator experience.
