In their own words
Speedify
Speedify combines Wi-Fi, cellular, Ethernet, Starlink and satellite links into a single connection. Its packet-level channel bonding distributes traffic across available connections and can use up to 95% of their combined throughput. If one link drops, automatic failover can move traffic to the remaining links without resetting a call or transfer. Users can set connection priorities and data or rate limits for metered links. Pair & Share lets Speedify users on the same local network share 4G and 5G connections. Streaming traffic is prioritized automatically; listed compatible services include Twitch, YouTube Live, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet. Speedify lists servers in 35 countries, supports streaming and torrents, and includes a kill switch. It offers a free plan and a 7-day trial. Individual monthly access costs $14.99 a month for up to five devices; the Family monthly option costs $22.50 a month for five accounts and 25 devices total. Team monthly access costs $14.99 a month for five users with five devices per user. The maker also offers an SDK for embedding bonding, failover and encrypted tunneling.
