Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
BoxCast
Live streaming for places that stream every week
BoxCast is built around a recurring broadcast rather than an occasional one, which is why its customers are churches, schools and local sport. Streams go out from a phone, a browser or a hardware encoder, and the same subscription covers the player, the hosting and a website to put it on. Branded television and mobile apps are sold as a separate product. Nothing about the pricing rewards streaming once a quarter.
Our note
Compare this against a platform plus a video host rather than against streaming software, because the bundling is the argument and it only wins when you would have bought both. For an organisation streaming weekly with volunteers running it, the thirty-day refund is the cheapest way to find out whether the reliability claim holds on your own connection.

bunny.net
Pay-as-you-go video hosting and delivery
bunny.net is a content delivery network with a video product on top, and it charges by the gigabyte with a one dollar monthly minimum. A creator embedding video on their own site pays for what people actually watch instead of buying a plan sized for a good month. It expects you to be comfortable with a dashboard built for developers, and it does not try to be a membership platform.
