Introduction

What is StreamerCatalyst?

StreamerCatalyst is a Twitch streamer toolkit that runs on Cloudflare’s global network. It gives you a set of modules — chat bot, AI personas, reward rules, moderation automation, stream planning, analytics, overlays, tipping, a Discord bot and outside integrations — all in one dashboard at streamercatalyst.com.

Module	What it does	Plan
AI Personas	AI chat commands (!mimic, !roast, …) built on personas of your eligible chatters, custom AI commands and channel lore	Affiliate+
Events	Reward rules that fire on bits, subs, gifts, tips, raids, follows, chat phrases, channel points and charity; giveaways; a public Event Page	Affiliate+
Chatters	The chat bot: custom and utility commands, quotes, auto chats, shoutouts, regulars and leaderboards	Free
Modomation	Channel-point redemption automations, channel-event messages, auto shoutouts, VIP management and AutoMod suggestions	Free
Stream Planner	Kanban boards for upcoming streams, with access control for your team	Free
Numbers	Per-stream stats, charts, goals, streaks, subscribers, hype trains and audience analytics	Free
Widgets	OBS browser sources and overlays, Catalyst Scenes and custom widgets	Free
Discord	A Discord bot for your community server: go-live and event announcements, button roles, schedule sync	Free
Tipping	Accept tips on your own tip page and run donation goals	Free
Integrations	Connect outside platforms — Tiltify charity campaigns first	Free

Every module is in the dashboard from your first login, and there is nothing to switch on: your plan decides which modules you can use. Things that only watch your channel — analytics, chat activity, lead-mod detection — start working for every module on your plan straight away, so history builds up before you first open the page. Anything that acts in your channel — bot messages, mod actions, reward rules, AI replies — waits until you configure it, so upgrading never turns on automation you didn’t set up.

Connecting your Twitch account

1. Go to streamercatalyst.com and click Connect with Twitch.
2. Twitch asks you to approve the requested scopes. StreamerCatalyst requests a baseline set that covers what every module needs to read and react to your channel; the few permissions that let it act on your behalf (managing Channel Point rewards, VIPs, AutoMod, ad breaks, your channel’s title and category) are asked for later, when you set up the feature that uses them. You can see what each scope is for in the Authentication & permissions section.
3. After approving, you land in the dashboard. Your session is kept in a secure cookie and lasts up to 7 days; after that, sign in again.

You only sign in once — all modules share the same Twitch connection. If StreamerCatalyst later needs a baseline scope your connection doesn’t have yet, the Dashboard and Settings show “Missing N Twitch scope(s) — some features may not work” with a Re-authorize link. Only the broadcaster can fix this; a moderator who re-authorizes grants permissions on their own account, not the channel’s.

Get set up

Your first visit opens the Get set up checklist (it also lives at streamercatalyst.com/setup). Work through it in any order:

1. Tell us who you are — I’m the streamer or I’m a mod. Picking mod lists the channels you moderate that use StreamerCatalyst and switches you into one (see Roles and permissions).
2. Start your free trial — shown only while a trial is available to you: any paid plan, first 7 days free (14 if another streamer referred you).
3. A tour of the modules, one stop each: Chatters, Modomation, AI Personas, Events, Numbers, Stream Planner, Discord, Tipping and Widgets. Each stop lists what the module does, says whether it’s on your plan, and links to it. Some stops have a setup action built in:
   • Chatters — Bring your commands (paste commands from Nightbot, StreamElements or Fossabot) and Get the bot in your chat (choose who sends chat messages — Speak as me, the StreamerCatalyst bot, or My own bot account).
   • Tipping — Connect your payouts.
   • Widgets — Set up your first widget (opens the widget gallery).

Each step has Continue and Skip for now. While the checklist is unfinished, the sidebar shows a Get set up entry with your progress, and the Dashboard shows a banner with Continue and Dismiss. On the mod path, only the Chatters stop is yours to complete — the rest are marked N/A because the broadcaster handles them.

Finding your way around

The left sidebar holds everything:

• Search… (⌘K / Ctrl-K) — the command palette.
• Platform — Dashboard, plus Get set up while the checklist is unfinished.
• Modules — one group per module. Click a module to open it; its pages appear underneath. Edit lets you drag modules (and their pages) into the order you like.
• At the bottom — Settings, Billing and Refer a streamer (broadcaster only), Docs, Community (the StreamerCatalyst Discord), Notifications, and Sign out.

At the top of the sidebar you’ll see the channel you’re working on and your role in it (Broadcaster, Lead Mod or Mod). On a phone, the sidebar opens from the menu button.

Many pages have a Docs button that opens the matching documentation in a side panel without leaving the dashboard. The Feedback button in the corner sends a bug report, feature request or general feedback to the team — tick Notify me when this is resolved to get a notification when it’s closed.

The Dashboard home

Dashboard is a board of cards you arrange yourself. Click Customize to drag cards around, resize them (up to 2 columns wide and 3 rows tall), remove them with ×, or open the card library with Add a card. Click Done when you’re finished. Your layout is saved to your account, so a moderator’s board is separate from the broadcaster’s.

Card	Module	Shows
Followers	Numbers	New follows this week at a glance
Goal	Numbers	Progress toward a goal you set
Plus Program	Numbers	Estimated Plus Points and level (broadcaster only)
Streak	Numbers	Your current goal streak
Activity	Numbers	Live follows, subs, bits, tips, raids and reward earns
Top chatters	Numbers	This week’s most active chatters
Commands	Chatters	Toggle your go-to commands on or off
Auto-chats	Chatters	Scheduled chat messages
Rewards	Events	Quick-toggle reward rules and run giveaways
Mod rules	Modomation	Automated mod rules at a glance
AI personas	AI Personas	Toggle persona commands in chat
Next stream	Stream Planner	Your next planned stream (broadcaster only)
Tips	Tipping	Today, 7-day and 30-day tip totals (broadcaster only)
Tip goal	Tipping	Progress toward your donation goal

A card from a module that isn’t on your plan shows Needs Affiliate — Read-only until you upgrade, with Preview (open the module read-only) and See plans. Moderators see a View tag on cards they can only read; Commands, Auto-chats, Rewards and Mod rules give mods working controls.

The Dashboard also shows a Channels you moderate strip when you moderate other channels that use StreamerCatalyst.

Search and Ask

Press ⌘K (Mac) or Ctrl-K (Windows), press / anywhere you aren’t typing, or click Search… in the sidebar. Type to search:

• Pages — every dashboard page and module tab you can open (modules not on your plan open read-only).
• Your data — your own commands, quotes and regulars (Chatters), planner boards and cards (Stream Planner), events and reward rules (Events), and redemption and channel-event rules (Modomation).
• Docs — matching documentation pages (after three characters). Opening one shows it in the side panel.

On plans that include AI (Affiliate and up), two Ask rows appear above the results once you’ve typed something:

• Ask about your data — answers questions about your channel’s numbers from your Numbers data.
• Ask AI — answers questions from the documentation, with numbered sources you can open.

Pressing Enter asks; arrow down to pick a result instead. Each Ask has a daily question allowance by plan — see Tier comparison. Esc closes the palette (or goes back from an answer to the results).

Notifications

Notifications at the bottom of the sidebar shows a count of unread items. It collects things like new StreamerCatalyst releases, a trial or subscription ending within 7 days, updates on feedback you sent, referral sign-ups and credits, Stream Planner assignments and completions, and a note whenever StreamerCatalyst staff view your account for support. Mark all read clears the count; the latest 50 are kept.

Settings

Settings (bottom of the sidebar) has four parts:

• Modules — every module with a Health button and an Open button. Health shows the module’s OAuth Scopes (✓ granted, ✗ missing, or “granted when you set this up” for a permission asked for later) and its EventSub Subscriptions — the Twitch events StreamerCatalyst receives for that module, each ✓ when it’s in place. Subscriptions are created and repaired automatically; if one shows it needs a scope, use Re-authorize. This is the first place to look when a module isn’t reacting to something on stream.
• Time zone — sets your local day boundary and how dates and times are shown across the dashboard and in the dates your bot prints in chat. Broadcaster only.
• Lead moderators — your Twitch moderators, each with Promote to lead mod or Demote. Broadcaster only. See Roles and permissions.
• Plan & billing — your current plan and a Manage billing button. Broadcaster only.

Each module’s own settings live inside that module.

Billing and referrals

Billing in the sidebar (broadcaster only) is where you start a trial, subscribe, switch plans or manage your payment details. Plans, prices and limits are on Billing & plans, Tier comparison and Module access by tier.

Refer a streamer (broadcaster only) gives you a personal link: the streamer you invite gets a 14-day trial instead of 7, and you get account credit when they pay their first invoice. See Referral program.

Plans and module access

StreamerCatalyst has four plans — Free, Affiliate, Partner and Partner+. The names are plan names only; they have nothing to do with your Twitch Affiliate or Partner status, and anyone can pick any plan.

• Free includes Chatters, Modomation, Stream Planner, Numbers, Widgets, Discord, Tipping and Integrations, at basic limits — no card required.
• Affiliate and up add AI Personas and Events, and raise the per-feature limits inside every module.

Every module is always visible. A module your plan doesn’t include shows an Upgrade pill in the sidebar, and its pages open read-only: you see the real pages with a banner — “Module is view-only on this plan — subscribe to make changes” and a Manage billing → button — and the controls are disabled. Moderators see “isn’t included on this channel’s plan — the broadcaster manages billing” instead.

Limits inside a module (how many commands, boards, rules, widgets, how long analytics are kept, AI allowances) also depend on your plan; hitting one gives a message naming the limit and suggesting an upgrade. See Tier comparison.

When your plan drops — a downgrade (which applies straight away), or a cancelled subscription reaching the end of the period you’ve paid for — access follows the new plan: modules above it become read-only, and anything past the new plan’s limits is switched off or archived rather than deleted. Two things are removed: Numbers data older than the new plan’s retention window, and videos uploaded on a higher plan (after a grace period).

Roles and permissions

StreamerCatalyst has three levels of access:

Role	Who holds it	What they can do
Broadcaster	The channel owner who connected their Twitch account	Everything — configure modules, manage billing and referrals, set the time zone, promote Lead Mods, connect payouts and outside accounts
Lead Mod	A moderator the broadcaster has promoted in Settings, or one detected automatically from their Twitch Lead Moderator badge	Read and write access to module configuration. Can’t manage billing, referrals, the time zone or other Lead Mods
Mod	A Twitch moderator for the channel who signs in to StreamerCatalyst	Read access to dashboards and live data, plus the day-to-day work each module opens to any moderator — in Chatters that is custom commands and Auto Chats, matching what they can already do from chat. Module settings, billing and credentials are closed to them; see each module’s own page for its split

A few things stay with the broadcaster whatever a moderator’s role: payouts (Tipping → Payments), connecting Tiltify, Stream Planner’s Access Control, and the broadcaster-only Dashboard cards. Stream Planner decides moderator access per channel and per board in Access Control.

Moderating a channel

A moderator signs in with their own Twitch account. The channel’s broadcaster must already have connected their account to StreamerCatalyst — only channels that use it are listed.

• On your Dashboard, the Channels you moderate strip lists them, each tagged Mod or Lead Mod. Click one to switch in. (The Get set up checklist’s I’m a mod step does the same.)
• While you’re in, a banner reads “Managing channel · Mod/Lead mod · as you” with an Exit button that takes you back to your own dashboard.
• A moderator session lasts up to 4 hours; switch in again after that. Your role is read when you switch in, so a moderator promoted to Lead Mod mid-session should exit and switch in again.

Lead Mods

Lead Mod access is granted two ways:

• Manually — the broadcaster clicks Promote to lead mod next to a moderator in Settings → Lead moderators. Manual grants are permanent until demoted. The list shows each Lead Mod as Lead mod · Manual or Lead mod · Auto, and flags anyone who is Not a Twitch mod any more. If the list can’t load, the broadcaster needs to Re-authorize so StreamerCatalyst can read the moderator list.
• Automatically — anyone chatting in your channel with Twitch’s Lead Moderator badge is detected and granted Lead Mod access. Auto-detected grants refresh while the badge keeps appearing in chat and lapse after about 90 days without it. A manual promotion always takes precedence.

Promoting or demoting here only changes access inside StreamerCatalyst — it never changes anyone’s role on Twitch.

Support access

StreamerCatalyst staff can view your account for support. That session is read-only unless full access is specifically granted, it ends after 4 hours, and you get a notification (“Admin viewed your account”) each time it happens.

System status

The public status page at streamercatalyst.com/status needs no login. It shows the current state of each part of StreamerCatalyst (Dashboard, Platform & Auth, each module, the Twitch event router and the documentation) with 90 days of uptime history, and a banner when a Cloudflare incident is affecting services we depend on. Services are checked every 5 minutes, and one is shown as down only after two failed checks in a row. The Discord bot’s /status command and its optional status feed report the same thing.

Next steps

• Open a module: every module is in the sidebar. Ones your plan doesn’t include open read-only with an upgrade prompt — there is no module to switch on first.
• Set up the chat bot: see the Chatters module guide and Bot integration.
• Connect stream overlay widgets: see the Widgets module guide.
• Automate channel point redemptions: see the Modomation module guide.
