How long can I stream for?
Last updated July 24, 2026
The maximum length of a single live stream depends on your plan.
| Plan | Max stream length |
|---|---|
| Free | 2 hours |
| Hobby | 6 hours |
| Creator | 8 hours |
| Scale | 10 hours |
| Enterprise | 24 hours |
When your stream approaches the limit, you'll get a 30-minute warning (and a final reminder a few minutes before the cap). When you hit the maximum, the broadcast stops automatically β ApexStream enforces this live, and you'll need to end the stream and start a new session if you want to continue.
If you're planning a longer event, either upgrade to a plan with a higher limit, or split your event into separate stream sessions. (For multi-day events, Enterprise users can run as many 24-hour sessions as needed.)
Good to know: The stream-length limit applies whether you're streaming from Web Studio, OBS, or any other encoder connected to ApexStream. Recording length follows the same cap as the stream itself.
