Perform anywhere.
Be seen everywhere.
LaughStream Live is a global stand-up network built so comics can finally be discovered for what actually matters: how you move a room. When clubs stream their shows, viewers around the world can watch you, tip you in LaughinStocks, and push you up leaderboards and maps based on real reactions—not industry politics.
You keep control of your material. Clips and VOD require your approval. You cannot buy LaughinStocks as a comic—they must be earned from sets and gigs. This is not another app; it is a career platform built for the people holding the mic.
Why LaughStream Live was built for comics first
Every comic knows the feeling: you crush in a room, the crowd loves you, and then the night disappears. LaughStream Live is built to keep that moment alive, show it to more people, and reward you directly when they connect.
How LaughinStocks work for comics
LaughinStocks (LS) are the backbone of the LaughStream Live economy. Viewers can buy and earn LS, but they can never cash them out. Comics and clubs earn LaughinStocks from tips and gigs—and they are the ones who can convert LS back into money or use them inside the network.
How you earn LaughinStocks as a comic
- • Viewers tipping you directly during live sets.
- • LaughinStocks allocated when you are on the lineup for streamed shows.
- • Performance-based bonuses from clubs who share LS with you.
- • Escrow-based LS payments for agreed-upon gigs through the platform.
You cannot buy LaughinStocks on a comic account. LS only enter your balance through performing and getting booked. The more you work and the harder you hit, the stronger your LS flow.
What you can do with your LaughinStocks
- • Cash out LS for real-world payouts (subject to platform terms and fees).
- • Use LS to secure stage time or festival spots through club offers.
- • Invest LS into promotional boosts or featured slots once available.
- • Signal loyalty to clubs by sending a portion of your LS back to venues you love.
Because viewers can never cash out LS, the flow of value is one-way: into the comedy ecosystem. You and the clubs are the ones who can convert LS into payouts or reinvest them back into your careers.
Ranks, leaderboards, and your comedy footprint
LaughStream Live tracks more than just followers. It tracks how you move rooms, where you perform, and how often viewers choose to stay with you. Over time, that data becomes your comedy footprint.
