What they are

Spreaker

Spreaker is a podcast hosting and live-streaming platform used by independent creators and radio broadcasters to publish, distribute, and earn from audio content. It combines real-time broadcasting with on-demand hosting and connects episodes to major directories like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The integrated ad marketplace is a genuine draw for monetization, though the free tier is fairly limited in storage and upload hours.

StreamYard

StreamYard is a browser-based studio for live streaming and recording to platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitch simultaneously. Creators, marketers, and podcast hosts use it to bring on remote guests, display branded overlays, and go live without installing software. The free tier watermarks your stream, and the paid plans unlock multi-destination streaming and higher video quality.
