Why build Melon
One reason: empower content creators to do more. That’s it. Everyone should be able to go live on Facebook or YouTube with just a few clicks. Melon is here to do just that - democratize live streaming!
Main benefits
There are several, and we will keep adding new great features based on what we hear from you.
Easy
- There is no complicated setup, nothing to install, and your guests do not need to make an account. You can just login with your Google or Facebook account and you are live.
- Melon is the simplest tool for anyone to get started live streaming.

Multistream
- Reach more people when you stream. Go live on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch all at the same time. Again, you can do this with just one click. We will take care of the rest on our servers.
- Besides multistream being easy for you, why does multistream matter? Because you can reach more people, and you can see where your content and your message resonate more. Perhaps you’ve been streaming to YouTube, but the Facebook audience loves your content more. Now you can be everywhere at the same time.

Personalize your live stream
- Make your broadcast yours! Stand out among others. Add your brand. Add your backgrounds.
- You can do this easily by picking some of the pre-loaded overlays or uploading your own logo and background.

Cloud-based
- Melon is lighting fast. Everything is done in the cloud, preserving your computer. Blazing fast response time and low CPU usage when you stream to Facebook or YouTube.
- We built Melon so that you can feel in the moment when you stream. Focus on your conversation!

Tools to engage your audience
- The news ticker helps you remind folks of the message. A banner lets you title your show. Integrated chat that syncs chat from the Facebook chat or the YouTube chat directly to Melon and private chat just for you and your guests.
- You or your guests can share your screen, and of course, you get to control who is in the broadcast.
- There are multiple ways to interact with your audience when you stream.
