Cecula Stream

What Cecula Stream is

Cecula Stream is a cloud-based internet TV platform for churches, schools, businesses, and broadcasters. Its cloud playout schedules media into time belts for continuous programming without physical playout servers. Churches can upload MP4, MOV, and AVI sermon files, arrange playlists, and schedule them across a 24-hour channel. A live service from OBS Studio, vMix, or a mobile phone can take over the scheduled playlist; the channel returns to the playlist when the service ends. Live services are recorded on the server for replay and on-demand viewing, and a scrolling announcement ticker can be changed from a phone or browser console. The church offering also includes sermon archive rotation, website embeds, viewer chat, and custom branding. A dashboard can insert promos, announcements, or sponsorship clips, with ad management included in Growing and Unlimited. Plans include HTTPS streaming through an SSL link, and the cloud media library is described as secure. Cecula Stream runs on Android, iOS, and the web. It is a paid service with no free plan, and its tiers range from 25GB to 80GB of storage, with viewer limits from 100 to unlimited. Cecula was founded in 2022 and is headquartered in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.
