Pricing

Two plans, billed monthly in euros, egress included. No per-viewer fees and no free tier.

€9 per month

For a book club, a band, a small audience that shows up.

€29 per month

For a touring act or a small festival, where a weekend is a terabyte.

Above the allowance we bill €4 per 100 GB, once a year, and a running stream is never interrupted.

Host accounts are created by invitation; guests just follow the link they are sent. Ask the friend who invited you, or write to us.

Billing questions

Why is everything invite-only?: Because discovery is what turns a room into a feed. There is no search, no directory and no advertising. Accounts here are for hosting a room, and only somebody already inside can vouch for you; guests never need one — the host sends them a personal link.
Is there a free plan?: No. A free tier is paid for either by advertising or by looking closely at what people watch, and this product cannot afford either. Plans start at €9 and can be cancelled in any month.
Where does the video actually run?: Two rented servers in Amsterdam, one for ingest and one for delivery, with object storage for recordings. No CDN sits in front of us, which is a deliberate choice.
How much upload do I need?: About 3 Mbps for 720p, 6 for 1080p60, 12 for 1440p and 25 for 4K, with roughly 30% headroom on top. The room page measures your line before you go live.
Do you record anything?: Only when the host presses record, and only for as long as the plan says. No transcripts, no highlights, no “moments” nobody asked for.
Can we use our own hostname?: On Troupe, yes: point ingest.383357.xyz at us and the room lives there. Playback stays on the room name so links keep working.
What happens above the egress allowance?: Nothing stops working. We bill €4 per 100 GB afterwards, once a year, in one invoice, so a long weekend does not lock anyone out mid-set.
