Upstream for VTubers

VTuber Streaming Software for Twitch, YouTube and Kick at Once

Keep VTube Studio, Warudo or VSeeFace and OBS. Send one stream to Upstream and it goes out to Twitch, YouTube, Kick and up to 10 of 30+ platforms at once, so your PC only does the work of one.

Start Streaming Free 24 free hours a month. No credit card. No watermark. Officially certified YouTube

Your avatar and OBS stay as they are

OBS sends one stream to Upstream, and Upstream sends it on to Twitch, YouTube, Kick and up to 10 of 30+ platforms at once.

Keep your avatar setup

VTube Studio, Warudo or VSeeFace still run your model, and OBS still builds your scene. You only change where OBS sends the stream.

One upload, up to 10 platforms

Your PC encodes and uploads one stream. Upstream sends it to Twitch, YouTube, Kick and the rest, so adding a platform costs your PC nothing.

What Upstream handles for your VTuber stream

Upstream is the streaming layer after OBS. Your tracking app and your scenes stay exactly as they are.

Works with OBS and Streamlabs

Sign in with Twitch, YouTube and Kick

Stream title synced to Twitch

Reruns from your past streams

Daily and weekly schedules

Reruns while you are offline

Upload past streams and run them as a 24/7 rerun channel from the cloud. Back to back cycles end each stream before 12 hours, so YouTube saves every one as a video.

Alerts and overlays on reruns

Reruns don't run through OBS, so add your StreamElements alerts, a donation goal or any web page in Stream Designer and they play on the cloud stream.

Multistreaming from OBS plugins vs with Upstream

Free OBS plugins can multistream too. The difference is where the work happens while your PC is already tracking your face, drawing your avatar and running a game.

Their customer service is top notch D Davone ★★★★★ I'm a new customer to upstream, but have been using vps for the past year. I've had numerous problems with my previous provider and decided to change. A Anthony ★★★★★ The upstream is amazing, and the stream designer is a really great tool!
