Castr

Castr is a live video streaming and multistreaming platform with video hosting (VOD), that lets you ingest a single RTMP/SRT source and restream it to multiple destinations, record and clip live streams, host and deliver on-demand video, run ultra-low-latency sub-second (WebRTC) streams, and embed a player. Castr exposes a documented, self-serve REST API at https://api.castr.com/v2 for managing live streams and their platform destinations, sub-second streams, video hosting folders and uploads, live-to-VOD recordings, activity/analytics logs and events, and webhook endpoints. Requests are authenticated with an API token issued from the account settings and sent in an authorization header.

Castr publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Analytics API, Live Streams API, Sub-Second Streams API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Live Streaming, Multistreaming, Video Hosting, VOD, and Video.

Castr’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, signup flow, pricing, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Castr, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
