Resi review
A church-focused streaming platform built around resilient delivery and multichannel workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Resi is a cloud live-streaming platform for churches and other organizations running weekly services, special events, midweek ministry, and on-demand sermon libraries. Its workflow combines software and hardware encoders, browser-based production, automated scheduling, recording, analytics, embeddable players, and delivery to social platforms, websites, apps, and RTMP destinations. Support for volunteer-led operations and church-focused integrations makes it suited to teams managing recurring broadcasts across one or more locations.
The published plans move from social distribution to broader web and app delivery. Social Only includes simultaneous Facebook and YouTube streaming, 1080p at up to 60 fps, scheduling, seven-day temporary storage, analytics, and one ProPresenter Encoder license. Starter Lite adds website streaming, QRclick, Simulated Live events, adaptive cloud transcoding, a white-labeled player, and 200 GB of monthly website-stream bandwidth. Pro adds DASH and HLS app streaming, the Go Live API, 1 TB of monthly website and app bandwidth, and 30-day temporary storage. Enterprise adds 4K delivery and up to 5 TB of bandwidth, with up to eight adaptive bitrate levels. Resi offers a 14-day free trial, but no free plan.
Resi’s standout capability is its Resilient Streaming Protocol, which supports buffered, verified delivery, alongside local and cloud failover for multisite operations. Automated and recurring schedules, REST API access, webhooks, and integrations with platforms such as Planning Center, Pushpay, ProPresenter, Church Online Platform, and Subsplash support established church workflows. Churches that need resilient delivery, recurring broadcasts, and broad distribution should consider Resi. Smaller teams seeking a free option, or organizations needing website embedding on the entry tier, should look elsewhere or start with Starter Lite.
