Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Airmeet

Interface has many interactive features requiring new attendees to understand social lounges, speed networking, polls, and QA before joining
Mobile experience not on par with desktop version; effective hosting requires a laptop
Resource-intensive platform that can be heavy on bandwidth, with video quality degradation on weak internet connections
Limited customization options for backgrounds, banners, and landing page content

Restream

The free plan applies Restream branding to the stream
Simultaneous destinations are rationed tightly, at 2 on free, 3 on Standard and 5 on Professional
Recording storage is 15 days on free and Standard, rising to 30 only on Professional
Reaching 8 destinations costs $199 a month on the Business plan
Resolution is not the differentiator, since every tier including free offers 4K, so the plans sell reach and retention instead
