Hi guys! I'm one of the co-founders of Stream. We started this because our friends and family members were super annoyed about having to text Zoom links and Venmo requests for events they were hosting with paying clients. We talked to them and came up with a product that lets you (1) create a landing page (2) manage payments (3) start a Zoom livestream with 1-click. Let us know what you think!

Super cool product that lets just about anyone make paid virtual events out of Zoom. Check it out!

@tejasmanohar Thanks again Tejas! :)

This seems like a useful product that could enable small businesses that offer training services like classes to operate during COVID-19 and could also be the catalyst to help these businesses reach a wider audience during normal times. Setting this service up with one easy-to-use application could be the difference maker that persuades small businesses who would otherwise operate soley in-person to shift toward offering some content online.
Lan
@afatschel8 Totally agree! Great POV Andreas.

?makers Was this idea already in the pipeline before the whole quarantine situation or did you guys found the need for this service in the last weeks? Why did you choose to work with Zoom? Props for setting this up! Will share with some entrepreneurial friends.

@derck_hoogeboom Thanks Derck! Jun and I had been working through a couple of different ideas around driving income and the future of work. Stream became super clear to us because the people we'd talk to *needed* a solution. We chose to start with Zoom because it was the service that most of the people we interviewed were already comfortable with using the software.

Hi everyone! I'm one of the cofounders of Stream. I also really love rock climbing. I'm hosting a class at 6 PM PST on how to handle climbing ropes. I'll teach you how to tie knots, check the integrity of rope, and handle hundreds of feet of rope efficiently. You can check out it out here: https://app.joinstream.io/climbi...

Great touch on the landing page customization and using Stripe / Venmo - makes it so that you don't have to rely on one videoconf or payment platform. I'm saying this as Zoom already provides an option for registration and was initially confused as to what your differentiation is but I get it, kudos and looking forward to using Streaming out!

@renato_anselmi_ricci So excited for you to give us a spin. Thanks for that resource!

Daniel Easterman
This is a great idea and looks really awesome! ?makers what's your business model here? Will you charge users a monthly / annual subscription or take a cut from what they charge for their live stream? Thanks!
Lan
@daneasterman We eventually plan to take a % from each ticket that hosts sell. If our hosts don't succeed we don't succeed.

Does this only work Zoom? They have a consistent history of poor security practice. I'd never suggest using their platform, much less build on it.
Jack Smith
@hunter_trujillo it's the most popular streaming platform though. so many will still use
Lan
@hunter_trujillo We talked to over 30+ hosts while we built the product and we chose Zoom because it was their preferred tool. We're proactively thinking about ways we can improve this experience and bring this in-house.
