Multistream sells through a network of authorized regional distributors across more than 12 countries, including Colombia (Multistream S.A.S., IT Espacios, Nuevos Medios), Spain (NRD Multimedia), Chile (Dynamics Media Group), and the USA, Mexico and Puerto Rico (ITOYDANI), targeting TV broadcasters, enterprises, content creators, marketing teams, and community managers.

Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled quote-based by distributors. Multistream serves enterprise customers such as Telefonica through its In-House licensing solution, while the broader base of broadcasters, corporates, and content creators is reached through the distributor channel. The company maintains a small headcount of 11 to 50 employees, operates from offices in Colombia, Spain, Chile, and the United States, and has no disclosed funding rounds or parent-company relationships.
