What StreamChum Studio is
StreamChum Studio is a desktop streaming app for composing broadcasts, encoding video, going live, or recording locally. It can stream to Twitch, YouTube, and Kick together, and can send Twitch a separate phone-oriented layout while YouTube and Kick receive a horizontal encode. Local recording saves one layout as an FLV file on the computer, but cannot run during streaming. Studio AI can propose scenes using the computer’s displays, cameras, and existing overlays, with a checklist before changes are applied. A Producer can switch scenes and change overlays from a browser, while Live Center combines chats from Twitch, YouTube, and Kick and scopes moderation actions to the platform of the message. The Free plan allows one live platform, seven days of history, and only the owner seat; live captions and creative AI features require a paid plan. Windows and Apple Silicon Macs are supported; macOS requires version 13.3 or later, and Intel Macs are not supported.
