Fix your setup.
Go live with fewer surprises.
Analyze an OBS log, test streaming upload speed, calculate bitrate, choose useful gear and run your pre-stream checks.
OBS Log Comparison
Compare dropped, skipped and lagged frames from two completed logs. See measured changes free; optionally export a repair report.
Compare my logs →Free OBS Log Analyzer
Paste a complete OBS log. Separate network drops from encoder and render lag, then see the first fix to test—without uploading the log.
Analyze my OBS log →Streaming Speed Test
Measure upload speed, ping, jitter and loaded latency. Turn the result into a conservative OBS bitrate starting point for your platform.
Test my connection →OBS Bitrate Calculator
Choose platform, tested upload speed and target resolution. Get a conservative single-track profile with real upload headroom.
Calculate my bitrate →Streaming Gear Finder
Tell us what you make, what you own, what is actually failing and your budget. Get a reuse / buy / skip plan in the right order.
Build my upgrade plan →Pre-Stream Checklist
A reusable pre-stream, live and post-stream checklist for audio, video, alerts, privacy, clips and VOD review. Progress stays here.
Run my preflight →Next-Stream Planner
Turn a topic and audience goal into a cold open, clear stakes, interaction beats, planned clip moments and a strong ending.
Plan my next show →Good products we would use ourselves.
We recommend a tool only when it solves a clear job. Add one at a time and know how to remove it if your setup breaks.
Stream Avatars
Turns viewers into customizable on-screen avatars, mini-games and chat-controlled moments. Best when the interaction supports the show—not when it covers it.
Streamer.bot
A deep, free automation engine for actions, triggers and integrations. Add one proven workflow at a time and document the recovery path.
OBS Studio
The open-source foundation we build around. Keep the base install stable; add plugins only when the job and version compatibility are clear.
