Hello Hunters,
For the last year I've been pouring my life into WeKast and I’m super excited it's here.
We created WeKast (http://wekast.com), a plug & cast presentation solution, to put an end to the painful presentation process that wastes time and that has not been disrupted in years. WeKast was born out of necessity, to meet our own needs, only to realize that so many of our friends felt the same way.
Our perfect presentation solution, as we imagined it, would be super-fast, incredibly-easy, wireless so we could present straight from our phone, to any screen, anywhere we want. Simple and streamlined. All we would have to do is just plug & cast! And that’s exactly how we designed WeKast.
No more presentation nightmares, no more awkward moments when the technology fails.
Imagine... you show up at your meeting, plug the wireless WeKast into any HDMI or VGA port, open your presentation on your phone and you're ready to go. You control everything -- slides, business docs, videos or photos -- from the app.
So excited to see what the Product Hunt community thinks. Thank you to the PH team for building this platform (big kudos to @Jacqvon for helping us get set up!!). Team WeKast is honored to be here!

@thepaulcurran Hey Paul, thanks for your question. Although WeKast can be used to watch videos, it does not support live streaming from YouTube yet. The video would have to be pre-loaded into the app first. For Youtube video streaming via WIFI, Chromecast is a great option if you don't mind the lengthy setup process everytime you change the location. WeKast is best for casting your files during meetings, when you are on the go or anywhere else where you cannot afford to waste time doing the setup or when you cannot access the local WIFI.
@guy thanks for your question. Not really because as long as OEMs won't agree on a worldwide standard, each will continue to develop their own tech for their own products. For example, Samsung phones works with Samsung TV, etc...Miracast is not reliable and not good enough (does not work with iOS) to be adopted as a global standard. So the market will still have room for a truly cross-platform solutions that you can rely on anywhere like WeKast. We also have WeKast Engage which is our engagement platform that lets you communicate with the audiences and follow up with attendees. The day all TVs will be smart, our users will be able to download our receiver WeKast app and be able to cast straight from their phone with our platform, without the HW.
