In their own words
mimoLive
mimoLive is a live video production application built around a many-in, many-out engine. It combines switching, graphics, DVR playback, ISO recording, streaming, transcoding, scaling, keying, multiview, and audio and video routing. Its graphics engine uses customizable layers that can be rearranged and saved as sets and variants. The software can stream and record to separate destinations and record independent tracks from input sources. It supports real-time chroma keying for green, blue, or other backgrounds, and multistreaming to as many as six destinations. Listed destinations include YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, LinkedIn, Zoom, and RTMP services. Zoom participants can be sources, and mimoLive output can be sent to Zoom through a virtual camera. NDI input, output, and source conversion are also supported. Version 6.18 requires an Intel or Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 13.0 or higher; it is not a browser-based studio. The Free plan costs nothing and includes the full feature set, with a watermark.
