Not another template tool. A live control room.

A Twools overlay is built widget by widget on a blank canvas, with no theme imposed, then run during the stream from the Control Room, on a phone or a second screen. Where a template tool delivers a ready-made theme, Twools is a live production engine, for running a stream like a show.

Starting from a theme
You pick a theme in a gallery and adapt what the tool lets you change. It is quick. In return, the layout and the style remain those of the theme.

Building and running

You build your overlay widget by widget: position, size, colours, fonts, animations. During the stream, you show, hide and launch each widget from the Control Room, open on your phone.

A quiz on air, run from the Control Room on a phone.

Are there ready-made themes?: No theme imposed: you start from a blank canvas or a starting point to make your own, then pick your widgets.

Do I keep my tools?: Yes. Twools joins your streaming software as one more Browser Source.
How much does it cost?: 11 of 29 widgets are included in the free plan.

What Twools brings, screen by screen

A control room on any device

What Twools is not

A theme gallery.
A chatbot.
A tool for donations or loyalty points.

Twools handles the dressing of your stream and running it live. For everything else, keep your tools: it joins your streaming software as one more Browser Source.

The "Connect your streaming app" window: create your overlay link, then paste it into a browser source. — Your overlay link goes into a Browser Source in OBS, Streamlabs or XSplit.
