Security & Privacy

StreamTools stores only the data necessary to run the overlays and live features (overlay tokens and settings). Privacy mode blurs sensitive fields in the UI for screenshots or streams.

How StreamTools Works

StreamTools uses browser-based overlays that connect to your StreamTools account via secure tokens. When you add an overlay URL as a Browser Source in OBS, it automatically pulls your current settings and displays accordingly. Changes made in the dashboard update overlays in real-time without editing OBS sources.

Three-Layer Architecture:

• Dashboard (Web) - Manage settings, create giveaways/polls, view stats
• Bot (Node.js) - Connects to Twitch IRC, processes commands, handles EventSub webhooks
• Overlays (Browser Sources) - Live displays in OBS that poll for updates or use realtime sockets

Getting Started

1. Login with Twitch - Authenticate with your Twitch account on the login page
2. Add Overlays to OBS - Access the Overlays in there pages or in the Export to OBS feature! (1920×1080 recommended)
3. Customize Your Stream - Adjust colors, fonts, positions in the settings pages
4. Configure Bot Features - Set up custom commands, timers, loyalty points, and auto-moderation
5. Go Live - Enable features and start streaming with your new toolkit

See the Help / User Guide for detailed setup instructions and troubleshooting.
