Stream Kit Bot review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Stream Kit Bot is a plugin in the Stream Kit desktop automation app for streamers who want chat activity to connect with automations and other plugins. It supports Twitch and YouTube live chat, with custom commands, moderation, timers, and a separate Rankings plugin for points and leaderboards. Its audience is most likely solo streamers and small channels using Windows who want to configure chat behavior from a desktop app; it is less suited to streamers seeking a browser-based bot or broad platform coverage.

Command controls are a central strength. Custom commands can use aliases, role permissions, platform sources, and handler chains, with global and per-user cooldowns to limit repeated use. Built-in commands cover command lists, stream uptime, and bot status. Scheduled actions use configurable timer intervals. Auto-moderation rules can delete messages, timeout users, or warn on Twitch, while custom roles let streamers assign command permissions. These controls make the bot useful for routine chat management, though the supplied moderation actions are specifically described for Twitch.

The Rankings plugin adds points, tiers, watch-time rewards, and leaderboard commands, giving streamers ways to connect participation with progression. Custom commands can be exported and imported as JSON, which supports moving command configurations. The main trade-off is the desktop setup: installation documentation specifies Windows, and the Bot plugin requires a Twitch or YouTube connection. Pricing is contact-sales, so prospective buyers should ask Stream Kit about applicable plans before deciding. Choose Stream Kit Bot if Windows desktop control and configurable chat features are priorities; consider another option if you need a non-Windows deployment or want clearly stated pricing before engaging sales.
