Go live on all your YouTube channels at once.
GoLive is a live streaming studio for Mac. Stream your screen, your camera or pre-recorded videos, run live fan battles where viewers vote in the chat, and send the same live to every channel you own with one click.
GoLive is in private testing. It runs on macOS 12 or later (Apple silicon and Intel).
What GoLive does
One live, many channels
Connect your YouTube channels once. Press Go live and GoLive creates the live on each channel and streams to all of them together.
Fan battles
Head-to-head, knockout or race. Viewers vote by typing a number, a name or a country in the chat; the screen shows the fight live, with flags and shirts.
Live commentary
One or two lively voices call the big moments, generated on your Mac. Captions show who is speaking.
Chat replies
Optional AI suggestions for replying to viewers in your own tone. You approve each reply, or let them go out within limits you set.
Steady on bad internet
Send the live through your own server: if your connection drops, viewers see a "Be right back" screen and the live keeps running.
Saved and on time
Set when the live ends. When it ends, GoLive keeps the replay on your channel as a public video if you choose.
How GoLive uses your YouTube account
When you connect a channel, Google asks you to allow GoLive to manage your YouTube account. GoLive uses that access only for the live streams you start in the app:
- Create, start and end your live broadcasts, with the title, description, privacy and thumbnail you choose.
- Get the stream key for your channel, so the video reaches YouTube.
- Read your live chat to count battle votes and show messages in the app, and post the replies you approve.
- Read the number of people watching your live.
- Make the saved replay public after the live, if you switch that on.
Your sign-in stays on your own Mac, encrypted with the macOS keychain. GoLive has no account system and no servers that receive your YouTube data. You can disconnect at any time in the app or in your Google account permissions. Full details are in the Privacy Policy.
