No comment on the actual tech (yet), just pointing out you've got a few different numbers floating around on different pages.

The title here mentions reducing costs by 90%, but on the homepage you list reducing cost by 50% (twice), reducing bandwidth by 99%, and offloading 90% of bandwidth. On the github page it lists reducing costs by 30%

From a first-read perspective those are vastly different numbers (30-99%), for what all sound like the same thing (reducing bandwidth by 99% sounds like it should reduce my costs by 99%).

Might want to be more specific (or pick a single number).

Hey thanks for pointing out. We should probably be more specific w.r.t numbers. The bandwidth savings depend on the number of concurrent users.

As more users watch a single stream concurrently the savings increase proportionately. We have seen max bandwidth savings of up-to 90% in live streaming scenario with 100 users concurrently watching the stream.
