FAQ
IRLToolkit alternative questions
Is IRLhosting cheaper than IRLToolkit?
Yes, for most setups. IRLhosting's 1080p/60fps Cloud OBS starts at $59.99/month (Basic), and multistreaming to 5 platforms is $79.99/month (Intermediate). IRLToolkit lists its Standard plan at $129/month and its Advanced plan, with 5 multistream destinations, at $179/month.
Can I move my scenes from IRLToolkit?
Usually, yes. Both run OBS, so your scene collection can come with you. Ask us on Discord when you sign up and we'll help you move it over.
Does IRLhosting work with Moblin, IRL Pro and Belabox?
Yes. Every plan accepts SRTLA, SRT, RIST, RTMP and ERTMP, and works with Moblin, IRL Pro, IRLwhatever, Belabox, LiveU, IRLbox and DJI cameras over RTMP.
Do I get a BRB screen with clips?
Yes, on every plan. The BRB scene plays clips from your own channel by default, and IRLstudio's BRB clip playlists let you pick clips from any Twitch or Kick channel. IRLToolkit offers its clips player as a paid add-on.
When might IRLToolkit suit me better?
If you specifically want GPU-encoded servers or an uncapped bitrate plan, compare IRLToolkit's Advanced plan. For most IRL streamers, IRLhosting's plans cover the same job for less.
