FAQ
Multi-VPS architecture. LiveKit's SFU + edge nodes support large concurrent viewer counts. RTMP simulcast to overflow platforms (YouTube/Twitch) isn't built in today — Aeion's egress currently records to file/BYOB storage rather than streaming out to a third-party destination.
Yes. Deploy LiveKit instances per region. Edge nodes route attendees to nearest. Cross-region replication for recording.
Aeion Events + Aeion Notifications native integration. Full registration flow + reminder cadence + post-event follow-up.
Configurable: 720p / 1080p / 4K. Higher resolution = larger files + more bandwidth. Most events: 1080p sufficient.
Not currently. Aeion's LiveKit egress records to file/BYOB storage; it doesn't yet push a live RTMP feed out to third-party platforms.
Post-event transcripts via Whisper.cpp support accessibility review and searchable archives. Live in-session caption overlays aren't built yet. Sign language interpreter as separate participant (configurable display).
Native Aeion Forms + Realtime integration. Polls launched mid-session, results in real-time. Q&A submission with upvoting; no AI-based question moderation/categorization today.
Aeion Sentinel detects + blocks. CAPTCHA at registration. Rate limiting at session join.
