StreamYard gets you live. Canira also handles before and after.
Both give you a browser studio with guests that streams to several platforms at once. The difference is everything around the stream: the sign-up page, the reminders, the offer, the follow-up and the week of posts.
Already have a webinar, workshop or Zoom recording? Start with that.

Where it stops, and where Canira keeps going
StreamYard is built around the broadcast. When the stream ends, the sign-ups, the follow-up and the posts are up to other tools.
When StreamYard is the better choice
If you only need to go live with guests to a few platforms, and you don’t sell from your sessions, StreamYard is simple and well established. You may not need more.
When Canira is the better choice
If you teach to sell, the stream is one hour of the work. Canira also runs the page people sign up on, the reminders, the offer, the follow-up for people who missed it, and a week of posts from the recording.
What it costs
Canira Serve is $59 a month for the first 25 Founding Members, locked for life. After them it's $79, and $97 at launch. Everything in the Canira column above is included, with a 14-day free trial.
Prices change, so check StreamYard's current price on their website, and add the tools you'd need beside it for the rows it doesn't cover.
Your best workshop shouldn't happen once.
Plan it, teach it, multiply it and let it run, in one place.
