Add Twitch + Kick live chat to OBS with one free overlay
This video walkthrough shows how to combine Twitch and Kick live chat into one browser source and place it in OBS.
It is built for multistream setups, so viewers can see messages from both platforms in the same on-stream chat overlay.
What the setup covers
- Connecting Twitch and Kick so both chats feed into one overlay.
- Generating the browser source URL inside Streamable.
- Pasting the chat link into OBS or Streamable Remote OBS.
- Using the overlay in a multistream workflow without paid chat tools.
Why this approach works well for multistreaming
Instead of running separate chat widgets for each platform, this setup gives you one URL to manage and one overlay to position in OBS.
That keeps your layout cleaner and makes it easier to show both Twitch and Kick activity on the same stream.
Use it in local OBS or Streamable Remote OBS
The browser source workflow is the same whether you run OBS on your own computer or use Streamable Remote OBS in the browser.
Once the chat URL is copied, you can resize, crop, and style it like any other OBS browser source.
