Vidiyo review
A free video platform pairing short clips, livestreams, scheduled channels, and commerce.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Vidiyo brings together a vertical short-video feed, livestreaming, and scheduled 24/7 creator channels. It is aimed at solo and small creators who want to publish clips, import videos from YouTube, and reach viewers across web, mobile, and supported TV apps. Viewers can browse a personalized feed, search channels and shows, and watch live or on-demand video. The service is free for core creation and viewing, with optional prepaid credits for AI video generation.
The free Vidiyo plan includes unlimited uploads to the vertical Feed, livestreaming with chat, reactions, and gifts, and 24/7 channel scheduling with automatic fill. It also includes analytics for live viewers, watch time, and follower growth, plus distribution across Vidiyo apps for TV, web, iOS, and Android. Creator earnings can come from ads, gifts, series, and shopping. Additional monetization options include tips, paid episodes, season passes, and shoppable product tags on clips and live streams. These tools give creators several ways to package and earn from video without a recurring plan described here.
The product’s range is useful for creators combining short-form discovery with live programming, but the breadth may not matter to someone seeking only a simple video host. Captions are automatic, and integrations include YouTube, Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. TV app availability varies, with some listed apps marked as coming soon, so creators should account for that when planning distribution. Vidiyo does not offer channel memberships. Creators looking for free publishing with commerce and multiple monetization formats may find its mix relevant; those who need channel memberships or dependable availability across every TV app should consider another fit.
