Add sponsor ads to your stream

Two overlays turn a brand deal into real money on stream: an always-on banner that quietly holds the corner all session, and a code callout you fire the second you read the sponsor. Here is exactly how to build both in Kloot — with the real panel and the real overlay, so what you set up is what your viewers see.

Run a giveaway on your stream

A giveaway is the fastest way to grow a stream — if entering is effortless and the draw is a moment. In Kloot, viewers enter in one tap by QR or join code (no bot, no chat command), a spin wheel picks the winner live on your overlay, and the prize is auto-emailed. Here is the whole thing, from prize to winner, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add a live poll to your stream

A poll turns a passive audience into the room deciding what happens next. In Kloot you fire a poll from one deck key, viewers vote in a tap by QR or join code (no chat bot, no extension), and results animate live on your overlay — bars or a pie, in your colors. Here is how to build and run one, on the real panel and the real overlay.

📱Setup

Control your stream from your phone

Your Kloot deck runs in a browser — which means your phone or tablet is already a full control surface. Prop it beside your keyboard or hold it on the couch, tap a tool, and it fires onto the same overlay that’s in your OBS. No second monitor, no Stream Deck hardware, no alt-tabbing out of your game.

Add a lower third to your stream

A lower third is the quiet workhorse of a produced-looking stream: your name and handle for every new viewer, a guest credit the second they speak, a “now playing” caption nobody has to ask about. In Kloot you build it once, theme it to your brand, and toggle it from one deck key. Here is how — on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add a scrolling ticker to your stream

A ticker is the news bar of your stream: a thin scrolling line along the top or bottom that quietly rotates your schedule, socials, announcements, and sponsor reads while you play. In Kloot you write up to ten lines, set the speed and colors, and flip the whole bar on and off from one deck key — the scroll loops seamlessly on its own the moment it’s up. Here is how to build one, on the real panel and the real overlay, so what you set up is exactly what your viewers see.

Add a Starting Soon / BRB screen to your stream

A Starting Soon screen is the difference between “this stream is warming up” and thirty seconds of someone’s desktop. In Kloot, the full-screen scenes — Starting Soon, Be Right Back, Ending, and more — live on your one overlay source and cover the entire canvas from a single deck key, so you never build or switch an OBS scene for them. Retext a template once, add an optional countdown, and every future stream opens, breaks, and closes on a press. Here is how to set it up, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add a webcam border / frame to your stream

A plain rectangle of webcam is the fastest tell of a default OBS setup. A border fixes that in one toggle: pick one of 11 lightweight CSS-first frames, recolor it to your brand, and drag the region over your cam — it draws on your overlay above the camera, holds all stream, and barely touches your GPU. Here is how to build one, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add alerts to your live stream

Most alert tools wire your alerts to platform events — and then a follow alert misfires over your clutch play, or a raid card lags thirty seconds behind the raid. Kloot alerts work the other way: YOU are the trigger. You build styled cards for the moments that matter, pin them to your deck, and fire each one the second it happens — so the alert and your on-mic reaction land together. Here is how to build your set, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add a live counter (kills / score / goals) to your stream

A kill counter is the simplest scoreboard a stream can have — and the honest version is the best one: YOU press +1 the moment the kill lands, so the number is always right and there is no game integration to break on a patch. In Kloot a counter is one styled number on your overlay with four deck keys — +1, −1, Reset, and Show/Hide — that you press from your deck or phone without alt-tabbing. It works for kills, deaths, wins, push-ups, or a goal with a built-in celebration. Here is how to build one, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Add emoji reactions & hype effects to your stream

The best moments of a stream deserve more than a chat spam — they deserve the screen itself reacting. Kloot’s effects library puts confetti, emoji rain, fireworks, and screen shake on deck keys you fire by hand, so the eruption lands the exact second your reaction does. Every effect plays over the whole scene for a few seconds and cleans itself up. Here is how to build your set — including a custom emoji button — and fire it from your phone.

Cover your screen instantly when you tab out

Every streamer has leaked something once — an address in a DM, a payout number, the map reveal you swore you wouldn’t spoil. A privacy scene in OBS works, but it takes setup, a hotkey you remember under pressure, and a switch back you forget half the time. Kloot’s Cover is one deck key: tap it and an opaque panel snaps over your screen — full screen or just a section — faster than you can alt-tab. Here is how to set it up, on the real panel and the real overlay.

Set up overlays for a charity stream

A charity stream is four overlays working one room: a goal counter the night chases, a ticker that repeats the donation link and entry rule so you never have to, a thanks ribbon for the cause, and a giveaway draw for the finale. Donations run through your donation platform — Kloot is the on-screen layer that turns them into moments, with you bumping the goal by hand as each gift lands. And because a fundraiser is usually a one-off, the $9 Event Pass covers 3 days of full Pro — no subscription for a single big night.

Every tool, one overlay

All 12 tools ride the same browser source. Explore what each one does:

Before you start

Do I need a separate OBS browser source for each overlay?

No. Kloot runs through one overlay URL in a single Browser source. That one source carries polls, giveaways, sponsor banners, lower thirds, alerts, effects — every tool. You add it once and never touch OBS again.

Do Kloot overlays fire automatically on follows, subs, or donations?

No — Kloot is manual-fire by design. You fire every tool yourself from the control deck in your browser or on your phone, so nothing interrupts a clutch moment on a timer. There is no bot wiring or event triggers to configure.

Does Kloot work with OBS, Streamlabs, Twitch, YouTube, and Kick?

Yes. Kloot is a browser-source overlay, so it works in OBS, Streamlabs Desktop, and any streaming software that supports browser sources — and it is platform-agnostic: Twitch, YouTube Live, Kick, and TikTok Live all see the same overlay.

Do I need a Stream Deck or any extra hardware?

No. Your Kloot deck runs in any browser — prop your phone or tablet next to your keyboard and it becomes the control surface. No second monitor, no Stream Deck hardware, no alt-tabbing out of your game.

How long does it take to set up?

About 3 minutes to add the overlay URL to OBS (you do this once), then a few minutes per tool. Every walkthrough on this page lists its step count and estimated time up front.

What does Kloot cost?

The Free plan lets you start tonight (with a small watermark). Creator is $15/mo for the engagement tools like polls, Pro is $25/mo and adds monetization — giveaways and sponsor overlays — and the $9 Event Pass gives you 3 days of full Pro access for a one-off event.
