Why does independence from feeds matter?
Twitch or YouTube may limit or demonetize a live without clear recourse. Gniark Live does not push your stream into a feed: you send a stable link to your audience. You control promotion (email, social, ticketing).
How do multiple rooms multiply projects?
Create a “closed rehearsal” room, a “ticketed preview” room, a “public live” room — each with its own WebRTC URL. Same technical stack (48 kHz Opus, WHIP) on every room without reconfiguring OBS.
How do you reassure donors and crowdfunding backers?
Show GDPR-aligned hosting choices when they audit your toolchain. Trust unlocks pledges across platforms like Kickstarter-class analogs in FR/EU.
Which levers grow the live audience?
Pair newsletters, socials, and partnerships with one stable ingress link. Premium Opus audio signals quality that encourages reshares.
Frequently asked questions
Can I link my merch store?
Yes — weave external storefront URLs into announcements around each room.
Is human support available?
Our team biases toward cultural orgs and independents — contact us for sizing help.
Does it fit label rosters?
Multi-room, multi-artist layouts plus GDPR reassurance simplify supervision.
Are there sneaky clauses on musical content?
We avoid arbitrary demonetisation — lawful content governance stays readable.
Does Gniark Live replace YouTube Live?
No. YouTube Live is useful for reaching a mass audience. Gniark Live is better suited to private concerts, rehearsals, showcases, premium lives and events where low latency, link control and audio quality matter.
Can I use OBS with Gniark Live?
Yes. OBS can send a full scene to a Gniark Live room via the WHIP protocol.
Can I organize a private concert?
Yes. Gniark Live lets you create a private room, share a restricted link and run a concert for a selected audience.
Can I sell tickets?
Yes, via external ticketing such as HelloAsso, Billetweb, Shotgun or a payment link. Gniark Live provides the live room.
Is it suitable for nonprofits?
Yes. Nonprofits can run benefit concerts, galas, hybrid events, private lives or cultural broadcasts with more control than a generalist platform.
Do attendees need to install an app?
No. Access is via a compatible browser, with no mandatory installation.
How is it different from Zoom?
Zoom is built for meetings. Gniark Live focuses on live music, audio quality, low latency, OBS WHIP and broadcast control.
What internet connection is required?
A stable fibre, 4G or 5G connection is recommended. For a paid concert or event, run a technical test before going live.
