Historically, launching a professional shoppable livestream has been an expensive, complicated, and time-intensive process, often requiring extensive coordination, multiple third-party vendors, and weeks of planning. LiveMAX eliminates these barriers making it possible for any brand, regardless of size, to schedule a fully produced livestream in just minutes.

“We believe the next era of ecommerce is interactive and shoppable, but the process of creating engaging live content has been too inaccessible for most brands,” said Max Benator, Co-Founder and CEO of Orca. “LiveMAX is the realization of our mission: to democratize livestream commerce. By creating a self-serve platform that removes all the friction, we’re allowing brands to focus solely on their products and watch an expert host turn viewers into customers.”

LiveMAX is a full-service, end-to-end solution delivered through a simple four-step online booking flow:

1. Tell us about your brand
2. Build your livestream package (number of hosts, and add-ons)
3. Customize your stream (number of hours)
4. Schedule and book (in minutes)

Once booked, brands gain access to Orca's professional resources, including:

• Fully Produced Shows: Livestreams broadcast directly from Orca's state-of-the-art studios in Los Angeles.
• Professional Hosts: Access to Orca's roster of exclusive, sales-trained on-camera hosts.
• Strategic Support: A dedicated producer, real-time show access, and a post-show performance review with recommendations.

This accelerated approach allows brands to capitalize on the massive conversion potential of live commerce, which McKinsey & Company reports can see conversion rates approaching 30%—up to ten times higher than conventional ecommerce.

“For brands new to the space, the sheer logistics of staging a production can be overwhelming. We’ve leveraged our experience as a trusted TikTok Shop Partner to take the complexity out of the equation,” added Lauren Stevens, Co-Founder and Chief Content Officer at Orca. “We’ve seen firsthand how a genuine, professional host can boost Average Order Value by 30% or more. LiveMAX delivers that quality and conversion capability instantly.”

LiveMAX is now available for all brands looking to amplify their sales and content strategy on TikTok Shop and Amazon Live. Pricing is transparent and set per-hour, starting as low as $165 per hour for volume bookings.
