Starcast is in open beta. Every feature is free while we build it with our first hosts. Start a webinar

Webinars that feel live. Because they are.

Your speakers talk in real time on a sub-second stage. Your audience watches a smooth stream on any connection. You run the whole show from one calm screen in the browser.

No downloads for anyone. Speakers join from a link.

Use cases

One studio for every kind of show.

From a 40-person customer training to a launch with thousands watching, the setup is the same: a link for your speakers, a page for your audience, and you at the controls.

The control room

You always know what happens next.

Set up before anyone sees it

Your audience sees a holding screen while you get the stage right. Speakers wait backstage until you bring them on. Press Go live when it looks right.

The next step, in plain words

The studio always tells you what to do next, from inviting speakers to going live and wrapping up.

Layouts in plain English

Pick a layout by what it looks like: One person, Everyone equal, Slides with a face in the corner. No jargon to learn.

Questions and raised hands

Questions arrive with upvotes, so the good ones rise. When someone raises a hand, you can bring them on stage.

Presenting while you host

Share your slides or screen and keep running the show from the same place. You never have to hand over the controls.

Simulcast to YouTube

Paste your YouTube stream key once. Flip the switch and the show goes out there as well.

Everything in the box

The whole show, before, during and after.

How it works

Live in three steps

  1. Create your webinar

    Name, date, speakers. Your registration page is ready straight away.

  2. Share the link

    People register and get their own link straight away, plus reminders the day before and 15 minutes before.

  3. Go live

    Bring speakers out of the green room and press Go live. The recording is ready when you finish.

Hybrid events

In the room and online, on the same show.

Running a meetup? Put the Starcast program on the venue screen, bring remote speakers on stage next to the people in the room, and stream it to everyone who couldn't make it.

  • Remote speakers appear on the venue screen in real time
  • Online questions and raised hands come to you in one queue
  • One recording of the whole night, ready to share after
Why not just a video call?

A call is built for meetings. A webinar is a show.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Something else? Email hello@starcaster.app and a real person will reply.

How many people can watch?

Your audience watches over a content delivery network, so a show can stream to thousands of people at once. Speakers sit on a separate real-time stage, so a bigger audience never adds lag for the people on camera.

Do speakers or viewers need to install anything?

No. Everyone joins from a link in Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox, on a computer or a phone. Speakers just allow their camera and mic.

Is the webinar recorded?

Yes. Every show is recorded while it's live, and the replay is ready to share once you end it.

Can I stream to YouTube at the same time?

Yes. Paste your YouTube stream key and flip the switch. Check your YouTube visibility first so it goes out the way you expect.

Where is my data stored?

Event data and recordings are stored on EU-based infrastructure, and the video is delivered to your audience through a content delivery network. We don't sell personal data. Our Privacy notice has the details.

What happens when the beta ends?

Nothing switches off without warning. Every beta host will hear from us well before paid plans start, with plenty of time to decide what suits you.
