How it works

    Share the link on your municipal website, by email, on social media or with local media. Residents open it and watch, with no app to download.

  3. Go live and keep the recording

    Stream from a phone, laptop or meeting room camera. Every meeting is recorded automatically for public records and on-demand viewing.

No IT department required

A phone on a small tripod is enough, and anyone on staff can run it, with no expensive equipment or IT contract. If your meeting room already has cameras, send their feed over RTMP. How to go live using RTMP

Several meetings at once

Committees meeting at the same time, or a hearing with an overflow room? A multi-room event streams up to 10 rooms on one link, and residents switch between them with tabs. Each room has its own stream and recording. How multi-room events work

“No accounts or special apps needed for guests to attend. No complaints about streaming quality from guests, even when streaming over mobile signal. Much better format than Zoom not having to worry about muting attendees, and no minimum followers to stream like YouTube.”
5-star review from MatthewPhelps on the App Store, June 2025
