ATTO Live → Comparison

Every cloud IRL streaming service, compared.

There are about a dozen services that will run your IRL stream in the cloud, and their prices differ by more than 10×. This page lists all of them — including the ones that beat us on price or specs — with what each actually costs and who it's genuinely for.

Last verified 23 August 2026. We make ATTO Live, so read the ATTO rows with that in mind — everything here is taken from each provider's own published pricing, and where we couldn't re-verify a number we say so.

Full cloud production

These run the encoder, scenes, overlays and chat for you, in the cloud. A phone is enough — no PC, no OBS on your machine.

IRLToolkit and IRLKIT prices read directly from their pricing pages on 23 Aug 2026. Streamable's tiers were re-checked the same day and have moved since our June research ($60/$120/$180, previously $59/$119/$179). AntiScuff, IRL Bonded, IRLHosting and UnlimitedIRL are carried from research dated 16 Aug 2026 and were not re-verified for this update — treat those rows as indicative and check the provider before buying. Streamrun (streamrun.com) is a further competitor in this space we have not yet priced.

Relay only

These do one job well: they take your SRT/SRTLA feed, absorb the drops, and forward a clean stream to Twitch. You still run OBS yourself, on your own PC. Much cheaper, because it is much less product.

Both are excellent at what they do and are the right answer if you already have a streaming PC. NOALBS, the auto-switcher several services are built on, is free open source.

How to actually choose

You already have a streaming PC and OBS set up

Buy a relay. BELABOX Cloud or IRLServer, $10/month, done. Paying $129/month for cloud production you won't use makes no sense.

You have a phone and no PC

You need full cloud production. On price, that's ATTO Live's free tier or $19.99/month, or IRLKIT at $29.99/month. Both deliver 720p30.

You need 1080p60

IRLKIT at $49.99/month is the cheapest. ATTO Pro is $79.99 and adds 5 destinations and full remote OBS access. IRLToolkit is $129.

You're a large channel, or running a production for someone else

IRLToolkit Advanced at $179/month. Uncapped resolution and bitrate, multiple ingests, and the deepest track record in the category — most of the big IRL productions run on it. If your stream is your income and downtime costs real money, the incumbent premium is a reasonable thing to pay.

You want to try IRL streaming before spending anything

ATTO Live's free tier is currently the only way to do that — 10 hours, no card. Streamable offers a 3-day trial.

What makes ATTO different

Two things, and they're both consequences of one architectural decision — we don't run a full OBS instance per user on the cheap tiers, so our cost floor is lower than a cloud-OBS provider's can be.

• A free tier that actually exists. 10 streaming hours, lifetime allowance, no card. For context, Twitch's Affiliate requirements include 240 minutes of broadcast time — 4 hours. The free tier holds two and a half times what you need to get monetized. Nobody else in this table can offer that, because a cloud-OBS instance per free user would bankrupt them.
• Setup is a QR scan. Connect Twitch, start a server, scan the code with your phone's streaming app. About a minute, not a support ticket — IRLKIT, for example, deploys servers within 24 hours.

And one that isn't about cost at all. Every service here sells multistreaming; none of them fix what multistreaming breaks — push to three platforms and you now have three separate chats, three audiences that can't see each other, and you reading none of them properly. ATTO merges Twitch, Kick and YouTube chat into a single on-stream panel, which is the actual reason our multistream tier exists. Your own Twitch clips also play automatically on your offline and BRB screen, so a dropped signal isn't dead air.
