LIV

LIV is an XR video capture and live-streaming platform whose flagship product, the LIV Camera Kit (LCK), is a game-engine SDK for Unity and Unreal Engine. It lets extended-reality apps on Meta Quest and PCVR embed user-spawnable in-game cameras for recording video, capturing screenshots, and live streaming to YouTube, Twitch, and custom RTMP endpoints - with no external capture hardware or software. An official Meta Quest partner, LIV ships first-party Unity and Unreal SDKs, a Developer Dashboard for SDK downloads and Tracking IDs, a LIV Hub device-login flow for streaming and subscriptions, and a desktop LIV App URI/command API for mixed-reality capture. The SDK is free for developers and is used by apps serving millions of monthly active users.

LIV is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, XR, Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality, and Video Capture.

LIV’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, signup flow, authentication, and 14 more developer resources.
