The patch panel

The world's first cloud virtual patch panel

In broadcast, a patch panel is the central routing hub — every source connects through it to every destination. CovaNet Flow brings that same concept to the cloud. Your encoder is the source. Your streaming platforms are the destinations. Click a cell, make a connection, go live.

Broadcast Tools

Broadcast tools, built in

FEED A — PROGRAM CLEAN
1kHz

Test Card

A generated SMPTE-style test card in 1080p at 25, 30, 50 and 60fps. Write custom text onto the card to visually identify routes and destinations. Includes a 1kHz test tone and PIP marker for lip-sync testing. Essential for commissioning new routes, pre-event rehearsals, and verifying signal before going live.

Pro and above

Test Video

Big Buck Bunny playback with broadcast scope overlays — vectorscope and colour bars on top, luma waveform on the bottom. Available in 1080p at 25, 30, 50 and 60fps. Real motion content for testing encoder behaviour, bitrate variation, and downstream tooling while the scope overlays verify signal quality through the pipeline.

Master Clock

A synchronised UTC master clock visible at the top of the interface with a user-selectable localised timezone shown beneath. Supports 25+ IANA timezones via dropdown. Essential for teams coordinating schedules across regions — everyone sees the same UTC reference while viewing their own local time for planning.

All plans

One platform for every broadcaster.

Solo

Just stream. Everywhere.

You point your encoder at Flow once — one stream key, one destination. From there you choose where it goes. Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, all of them at once. No switching stream keys, no running multiple encoders, no stress. Your audience is everywhere. Now you are too.

  • Stream to Twitch, YouTube and more at once
  • Works with OBS out of the box — no setup headaches
  • Free to start, no credit card needed
  • Switch platforms without touching your encoder
Creator

Pro tools. Cloud simplicity.

You’re running multi-camera shoots, managing remote contributors, or delivering feeds to clients who all want their own copy. Flow gives you a single cloud routing layer to distribute everything for your project easily and without hours of technical setup.

  • Route multiple cameras to multiple destinations independently
  • Send programme feeds to clients, platforms and archives simultaneously
  • Record clean copies of every source for post-production
  • Explain it in one sentence: it’s a patch panel in a browser
Broadcast

Reliable. Scalable. Familiar.

You know what a patch panel is. You’ve probably tripped over the cables. Flow is the same concept, cloud-hosted, with SRT ingest, multi-source routing, and enough outputs to run a full broadcast operation. Your crew will learn it in five minutes.

  • SRT and RTMP ingest for contribution feeds
  • Route up to 20 sources with 8 outputs each — 160 concurrent streams
  • UK and European infrastructure with low latency
  • Priority support and enterprise accounts available
  • No retraining — if your team can route a patch bay they can use Flow
