That can't be done with OBS...I believe you can run two instances of OBS if you have the resources...

https://restream.io/ . There's other services like this but that's what I use.

OBS can do this using Recording, Type: Custom Output (FFmpeg), FFmpeg Output Type: Output to URL but requires additional resources and bandwidth.

I use to use Xsplit and streamed to more then one site with that..It was on of the features...But, not worth what I was paying for Xsplit...
 
Its doable if you have the bandwidth to have multiple uploads i.e if you are uploading 5Mbs stream and want to send to 2 services, you would need at least 10Mbs upload on your internet for it to work well.

If you want it all localized you can use OBS and Nginx+RTMP Server to stream to multiple service:

For Linux there's this tutorial: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-set-up-your-own-private-rtmp-server-using-nginx.50/

For Windows, I created a video tutorial to show how I do it (based on the linux tutorial):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJaz59ZHgCo

If you dont want to get your hands dirty then services like https://restream.io/ are out there with free tiers with limitations.

The multi RTMP output plugin works great, I've tested it for well over 20 hours without a single hiccup.

Will have to check this out, definitely a whole lot easier to setup.
