Can my mods use my pad?

Yes, from the mod page or their own dashboard, with the permissions you give them.

Can a key do more than one thing?

Short answer:Stream Pad is the StreamNeeds virtual Stream Deck. Keys trigger actions like alerts, scene switches, giveaways, sounds, sponsor mentions and chat posts. Keys sit on pads and in folders and work from the dashboard, a floating pad, a phone, the mod page and a real Elgato Stream Deck through the StreamNeeds plugin.

What it does

A hardware Stream Deck is great, but not everyone has one, and your mods can't press yours. Stream Pad gives you the same thing in software. Build pads of keys, put keys in folders, and style them with colours, pictures and looks like Stream Deck, Neon or Glass.

Each key can play an alert, switch a scene, start a giveaway, play a sound, count an in-game moment, mark a sponsor mention or run several actions in order. Every key also has a webhook link, so other tools can press it too.

How it helps every kind of streamer

Small streamer: more engagement

No Stream Deck? Your phone becomes one. Sound effects and quick alerts make reactions bigger and stream moments funnier.

I want to grow

Running bits and running jokes are what make a channel memorable, and a sound board and instant alerts make them easy to repeat every stream.

I want to make more money

Sponsor keys log every mention for your reports, and keys that start a wheel or a giveaway turn support into an instant moment on screen.

Big streamer: run it at scale

Mods press keys from their own pad, so they can run scenes and sounds while you play. One key can run a whole sequence, like switching scenes, playing a sound and posting in chat.

How to set it up

Open Stream Pad and add keys for the actions you use most.
Group them into pads and folders and pick a look.
Open the pad on your phone or install the Stream Deck plugin.
