What is Poltergeist?
Poltergeist is a browser-based overlay management dashboard for live streamers on Twitch, YouTube, and Kick. No software installation required. Connect it to OBS Studio via a browser source URL and control your entire stream overlay from any browser, including mobile.
Add and arrange a wide range of asset types directly on a drag-and-drop canvas: text, images, videos, timers, scrolling tickers, chat boxes, shapes, QR codes, to-do lists, live polls, tally counters, prize wheels, carnival booth games, event alert boxes, and browser iframes. Each asset supports keyframe-based animation timelines, FX filters, opacity controls, and an auto-scheduler for timed visibility loops.
Organize layouts using a dual-zone live/staging system. Build your next scene in the staging area, then push it live or swap it instantly with a single click or keyboard shortcut. Save unlimited scenes and presets for fast scene changes during a broadcast.
Invite moderators to co-manage your overlay in real time. Mods can move assets, load scenes, trigger broadcast controls, and operate the soundboard. A built-in chatbot builder lets you create custom Twitch chat commands and automated event responses without third-party tools.
