Features
Made for your side of the stream.
Built by people who spend their evenings in chat, for keeping up with fast channels and finding the moments that matter.
Merge chats. Split panes.
Combine channels from any platform into one merged chat, or lay them out side by side. Move, stack and resize panes, then save the whole workspace as a preset.
Every emote belongs.
Twitch, 7TV, BetterTTV and FrankerFaceZ emotes inline, animated ones included, with zero-width stacking, 7TV name paints and rich emote cards.
One inbox for every ping.
Mentions and whispers from every channel in one place, marked read as they scroll into view.
Moderate without the tabs.
AutoMod queue, Shield Mode, chatter lists and one-click actions, right where chat happens.
Know your chat.
Messages per minute, top chatters, emote usage and long-range stats, kept on your device.
Links that get through.
Share clips, VODs and YouTube videos as short tokens that slip past link filters, with previews that play in place.
Everything is a keystroke away.
Jump to any channel, setting or action from the command palette. Every hotkey can be rebound.
Make it yours.
Light and dark themes, accent colours, UI scale and per-channel styles. Share a complete theme with a code.

Compared with the chat on twitch.tv, without browser extensions.
Is Chatge free?
Yes. Chatge is free to use, with no ads and no paid tier.
Is Chatge open source?
Not at the moment. That may change in the future. Chatge can already be extended with plugins, which add commands, menu actions, panels and message filters, and support for your own plugins is coming soon.
Do I need an account?
Not a Chatge account: there isn’t one. Sign in with Twitch to see chat live, send messages, moderate and see your followed channels; signed out, a channel shows its recent messages. YouTube chat in the web app uses your Google sign-in, and the desktop app reads YouTube chat without one.
Where are my settings and chat history stored?
On your device, in your browser or the desktop app. Chatge has no account of its own and no server that holds your chats. You can back up all settings to a file and share themes as a code.
Which version should I use?
The web app suits most people and installs in one click. Choose the desktop app for keyless YouTube reading and an always-on-top window, and the extension to replace Twitch’s chat on twitch.tv.
Why does Kick need a relay?
Kick only delivers chat to apps through webhooks, which need a server to receive them. The relay is a small service you run yourself; see the Kick guide in the docs. Sending to Kick isn’t supported yet.
What is a clip: or vod: link in chat?
Many channels block links. Chatge shares clips, VODs and YouTube videos as short tokens such as clip:… or vod:…-1h2m3s, which get past link filters. Chatge users see a preview and can play it in place; everyone else sees plain text.
Is Chatge affiliated with Twitch, YouTube or Kick?
No. Chatge is an independent project and isn’t endorsed by Twitch Interactive, Google or Kick.
