AFAIK even HEVC isn't typically used for live streaming, at least not on Web (YouTube, Twitch, etc.).

Is there any examples of major services currently using HEVC?

Apple Facetime. Netflix 4K on select TVs.

Most commercial 4K content, e.g. pretty much all 4K television broadcasts. YouTube/Twitch don't like it due to the royalties.
