Viewer intros on Twitch, Kick and YouTube with Streamer.bot
Twitch, Kick and YouTube don't tell tools when a viewer quietly joins — so the reliable trigger for a personal intro is a supporter's first chat message of the stream. Streamer.bot (free) does this on all three platforms. Here's the setup.
1. Prepare OBS
- Add a Media Source called 'Supporter Intro' and pick any intro .webm.
- Untick Loop, then hide the source (click the eye) — Streamer.bot will show it when needed.
2. Connect Streamer.bot
- In Streamer.bot, connect OBS under Stream Apps → OBS.
- Connect your platform under Platforms (Twitch, Kick or YouTube).
3. Build the action
- Actions → Add → name it after the supporter.
- Triggers → Add → your platform → Chat → First Words, limited to the supporter's username.
- Sub-actions: set the 'Supporter Intro' media source file to their .webm, show the source, add a delay of about 6.5 seconds, then hide it.
- Repeat for each supporter.
On Kick, 'First Words' resets after 12 hours by default — change it under Platforms → Kick if you stream longer.
