Stream alerts
Stream alerts are the on-screen animations and sounds that thank a viewer the moment they follow, subscribe, gift subs, cheer or raid. Trigglow connects to Kick, Twitch and YouTube, turns each event into an alert with your own media and text, and shows it on stream through one OBS browser source.
By platform
- Kick alertsAnimated on-screen alerts for every follow, sub, gifted sub, KICK and raid, in one OBS browser source.
- Twitch alertsAnimated on-screen alerts for every follow, sub, gifted sub, bits cheer and raid, in one OBS browser source.
- YouTube alertsAnimated on-screen alerts for every new subscriber, member, gifted membership and Super Chat, in one OBS browser source.
Alerts for follows, subs, donations and raids
Each event has its own alert: follows, subs, gifted subs, bits, KICKs and Super Chats, and raids. Gifted subs and bits or KICKs are always separate alerts, so each moment gets its own look and sound.

Animated alert templates or your own media
Pick a built-in animated template or upload GIFs, images, transparent WebM videos and sounds. Variations change an alert with the amount, the months, the platform or a first-time supporter.
Text-to-speech and alert box import
The viewer's message can be read out loud. Already have alerts elsewhere? Paste your current alert box URL and Trigglow brings the alerts over with their images and sounds.

FAQ
- Where do alerts appear on screen?
- Always centred on the browser source. You place them by moving and resizing the source in OBS, and you can set each alert's size in Trigglow.
- Does it work if I stream to several platforms at once?
- Yes. Connect Kick, Twitch and YouTube and their alerts play through the same OBS source, with variations per platform if you want them to look different.
- Can I bring the alerts I already have?
- Yes. Paste the OBS URL of your current alert box and Trigglow imports the alerts with their images and sounds. Chat bot commands and timers can be imported too.
- Is it free?
- Yes. There is a free plan with no card required. Paid plans lift the limits and lower the fee on paid alerts; the Pricing page has the current details.
