    Every chat in one window

    Connect your accounts once in the dashboard. From then on livetools collects messages from every platform into a single stream — no more switching between tabs and windows.

    • Twitch

      Twitch

      Chat messages with third-party emotes from every popular provider, and support for shared chats.

      YouTube

      The live chat of the active broadcast, with built-in emotes and platform events.

    Settings

    Tuned to fit your stream, not the other way round

    Looks, fonts, what to show and what to filter out — all of it changes right inside the app.

    Plenty of skins

    Switch the look of your chat in one click — from a plain list to tiles and glass. Try them out.

    and more

      Fonts and sizing

      Take a font from Google Fonts or any one already installed on your computer, set the message size and the spacing between messages — chat stays readable at any resolution.

      What to show

      A couple of switches strip out the noise, leaving only what your viewers actually need.

      • Platform badges
      • Badges next to the nickname
      • Message timestamps
      • System messages

      Blacklist

      Words and phrases, one per line. If any of them shows up in a message or a nickname, that message never reaches your stream.

      Your own rules

      Not enough built-in settings? Add your own CSS right into the widget and style chat exactly the way you pictured it.

      More widgets

      Timer and notes — free

      Besides chat, livetools ships two widgets that need no subscription. Both go on stream exactly the way chat does.

      Timer

      Free

      A countdown to a chosen date and time — or a stopwatch with start, pause and reset.

      • The countdown stops at zero — handy for announcements, breaks and marathons.
      • The stopwatch remembers its value and picks up where it left off on the next run.
      • Styling: format, font, size, text and background colour.

      Notes

      Free

      Text notes kept inside the app and shown to your viewers: the plan for the stream, chat rules, a list of goals, or anything else you come up with.

      • Formatting: headings, lists, quotes, links, bold and italic.
      • Edits show up instantly — no restarting the widget or the scene.
      • Transparent background, for when the note has to sit on top of an image.

      Chat on top of the game — or as its own source in OBS

      • A window over your screen. The widget is an ordinary window: put it anywhere on screen that suits you and keep it above everything else.
      • Ghost mode. Turn it on and the window stops catching your mouse: chat stays visible while the game keeps playing normally. Opacity is on a slider.
      • One monitor is enough. No second screen to hold chat on, no alt-tabbing back and forth.
      • A source for OBS Studio. Every widget has its own link — add it as a Browser source in OBS Studio, or in any software that supports browser sources.
      • Several chats at once. Create multiple chat widgets with different settings and platforms.
