Turn one ingest into many outputs
Use one managed ingress point and send the same live signal to social platforms, partner endpoints, or your own player surfaces without rebuilding the workflow for every destination.
Delivery
Live multistreaming platform
Bring one live feed into Callaba and fan it out to social platforms, web players, partner endpoints, or backup routes. Keep ingest, protocol conversion, destination logic, recordings, and failover in one cloud or self-hosted product. Use the API later when these operator workflows need automation.

Workflow
Keep your destination logic under control
Route to public platforms, partner RTMP endpoints, or viewer-facing playback surfaces while keeping the handoff logic inside one workflow you own.
Add backup and failover paths
Treat backup as part of the workflow, not as an emergency manual step. Keep alternate destinations or route variants ready before the main path fails.
Brand, record, and adapt the output layer
Add overlays, audio choices, recordings, and playback-facing outputs where they belong: after ingest is stable and before the signal reaches the final viewer or platform.
Delivery
Move the heavy work off the encoder
Let the platform own routing, conversion, and fan-out so the source encoder can focus on sending one clean contribution feed.

Pay for routing flexibility, not platform lock-in
Use a workflow that can send the same input to multiple business destinations without rebuilding around the quirks of each individual platform.
Start in cloud, move to self-hosted later
Prove the routing model quickly in cloud, then move the same workflow shape to self-hosted infrastructure when your team needs tighter operational control.

Cloud multi-streaming pricing
The pay-as-you-go cloud tariff is ideal for those who need all the advantages of the cloud, such as instant deployment of Callaba, low latency due to the global network of data centers, server reliability, data backup, scalability, managed services, and much more.
Launch Callaba in the cloudSelf-hosted unlimited multi-streaming pricing
The unlimited tariff is a good fit for actively growing broadcasting organizations of medium and large size that would like to have no limitations like those in the bundled tariff, while also maintaining full control over their data.

Multi-streaming REST APIAutomate ingest and routing with API modules
This workflow is not one giant multi-streaming endpoint. In practice, teams create ingest boundaries, define route logic, and forward the signal with separate modules. Use the API when you want routing, backup paths, and destination control to behave like part of your own product or operator panel.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does “ingest and route” mean here?
It means you accept one live input into a managed ingress point, then decide how that signal should move next: to social platforms, partner endpoints, players, or other workflow modules.
When do teams choose this instead of publishing directly from OBS?
Teams usually choose it when one source has to feed multiple destinations, when backup paths matter, or when routing logic should live in a managed workflow instead of inside the encoder setup.
Can I route one source to multiple destinations?
Yes. That is one of the main reasons to use this layer. You can accept one contribution feed and forward it to multiple external or internal outputs.
Can I keep a backup path ready?
Yes. You can prepare alternate routes, backup destinations, or failover-oriented workflow branches before the main path becomes unstable.
Do I need more upload bandwidth for each destination?
Not from the encoder side if the workflow is built correctly. The source can usually send one managed contribution stream while the platform handles the downstream fan-out.
Can I mix social outputs with my own player or partner endpoint?
Yes. The same workflow can include social outputs, private RTMP/SRT destinations, and viewer-facing playback surfaces.
Can I add overlays or branding in the workflow?
Yes. Branding, overlays, recordings, and playback-specific settings can be added around the route instead of forcing them into the source encoder.
Can I record the same live signal while routing it?
Yes. A common production pattern is to ingest once, route live outputs, and record the same signal in parallel.
Can I use SRT as the contribution input?
Yes. SRT is a common ingest choice when network conditions, contribution quality, or controlled receiving infrastructure matter.
Can I use RTMP destinations too?
Yes. Routing workflows often mix SRT contribution with RTMP or RTMPS outputs when the final destination still expects that transport.
Is this API-first or dashboard-first?
Both are possible. Teams often validate the workflow in the dashboard first and then move the same logic into their own operator or backend tooling through the API.
Can I move the same workflow to self-hosted later?
Yes. One of the practical advantages of this stack is that the workflow model stays recognizable whether you start in cloud or move to self-hosted infrastructure.
Where should I start in the docs?
Start with SRT servers if the first question is where the signal enters, then continue to SRT routes and Restreams to define how it moves.
Are there any bitrate limits with Multi Streaming?
We do not impose any bitrate limits on your streams. However, please be aware that some platforms may have their own bitrate limits.
