If you only offer a single stream, your claims of being better than cloud-based transcoders have no meaning. You don't transcode, they do.

You push a single stream, which any client can already do, and they can already live without transcodes. Your app doesn't add value by freeing them from the cost of cloud-based transcoders.

Our current offer is a significant cost reduction for a single high-quality broadcast to a large audience. On top of that we handle all the plumbing related to your iOS/Android cloud video app. Our SDK can manage all your application's broadcasts and users (if you choose).

I'm excited for our open-source Android and iOS clients to stimulate development of some novel video apps. Maybe Security monitoring systems or even Phone + $20 Weather balloon = Weather satellite!
