The whole category, one table

Cloud IRL streaming services, compared.

This comparison records a range of cloud IRL services and their published offers from August 2026, including options with higher resolutions or more destinations than ATTO. Check each provider's current terms before choosing a service.

Competitor research dated 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.

ATTO access updated 1 October 2026. Free and Starter are the launch plans; studio starts are limited to invited testers, and paid upgrades are paused. Competitor figures retain the verification dates below.

The short version, using the dated figures below. If you already run OBS on a PC and just need drop protection, a relay is all you need — BELABOX Cloud ($10/mo) or IRLServer ($9.99/mo). If you want the whole broadcast run for you and don't want a PC at all, that's full cloud production: IRLToolkit ($129/mo) is the established incumbent, IRLKIT ($29.99/mo) is the value pick with 1080p60 at $49.99, and ATTO Live has a free tier and unlimited Starter at $19.99/mo while a founding spot is available, otherwise $25/mo. The August 2026 research also listed IRLToolkit Advanced ($179/mo) for uncapped resolution and bitrate.

Full cloud production

These services run production in the cloud. For phone streaming, you do not need a PC running OBS; you still configure your platform and camera app. Features and controls vary by provider.

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

A relay receives your camera feed and forwards it to your production setup. Compatible SRT/SRTLA configurations can reduce disruption from unstable connections; they cannot guarantee uninterrupted delivery. You still run OBS on your own PC for production.

Relay / bring-your-own-OBS · competitor figures: August 2026
ServicePriceWhat you getYou still need
IRLServer $9.99/mo SRTLA relay, NOALBS auto-switching, free browser remote, 5 regions A PC running OBS
BELABOX Cloud $10/mo (+$5 remotes) SRTLA relays, 8 regions, GitHub-sponsor perk A PC running OBS

These relay figures are from August 2026; verify features and prices directly. A relay may suit an existing streaming PC setup. NOALBS is an open-source auto-switcher used in this category.

How to choose using this dated comparison

You already have a streaming PC and OBS set up

A relay may be enough. The August 2026 comparison listed BELABOX Cloud and IRLServer at about $10/month; check current pricing and whether their features fit your setup.

You have a phone and no PC

For a produced phone stream without a PC, consider full cloud production. ATTO's launch plans are Free and Starter, both 720p30; eligible founding Starter is $19.99/month and standard Starter is $25/month. ATTO is in invited testing, with paid upgrades paused. The August 2026 research listed IRLKIT at $29.99/month for 720p30.

You need 1080p60

The August 2026 research listed IRLKIT at $49.99/month for 1080p60 and IRLToolkit Standard at $129/month. ATTO Free and Starter are limited to 720p30; Plus and Pro are not available at launch.

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

The August 2026 research listed IRLToolkit Advanced at $179/month with uncapped resolution and bitrate and multiple ingests by request. For paid productions, verify current specifications, support and reliability evidence before choosing a provider.

You want to try IRL streaming before spending anything

Where ATTO is not the right answer

We would rather tell you now than have you cancel later:

What makes ATTO different

ATTO Free and Starter use a purpose-built rendering pipeline for a guided phone-to-cloud workflow.

Free and Starter focus on one destination per stream. Higher tiers and multistreaming are not available at launch; compare the launch plans on the pricing page.

Try the free tier

10 lifetime studio hours, including setup and preview while your studio is running. No card, no monthly refill. If ATTO isn't right for you, the table above is an honest map of where to go instead.
