Chat bot for Twitch

The Twitch bot for commands, moderation and loyalty points

VidariBOT sits in your Twitch chat, answers commands, clears out spam and rewards regulars with points. It runs on our servers – your PC can be switched off.

Chat commands: built-in and your own

Vidari ships 74 built-in commands in five groups: community (such as !lurk and !streak), loyalty points and shop, mini-games, info (followage, uptime, goal, quote, clip) and moderator tools (shoutout, poll, marker, title and category). You can switch every built-in command on or off and change its reply text.

You create your own commands in the dashboard or right in chat – with a reply, variables, rank, cooldown and aliases. Vidari Free allows up to 25 custom commands, Vidari Pro as many as you like.

Auto-moderation and spam protection

Timers and announcements

Timers are recurring chat messages. They only fire once enough chat lines have come in since the last one – so the bot never talks into an empty chat. Each timer can be tied to a Twitch category or a phrase in the stream title and can alternate between two texts.

Loyalty points, shop and mini-games

Viewers earn points for their watch time. With !points they check their balance, and in the shop they redeem points for rewards you define – every redemption lands in a to-do list in the dashboard.

Set up your Twitch bot in three steps

  1. Sign in with Twitch

    Choose “Start for free” on vidari.de and sign in with your Twitch account. There is no separate Vidari password.

  2. Grant the rights for your channel

    Twitch asks what VidariBOT may do in your channel – such as writing messages, moderating and starting polls. The bot then joins your chat.

  3. Configure in the dashboard

    Built-in commands, moderation and loyalty points work immediately. The starter pack can create five commands, two announcements, four shop items and the six standard alerts in one go.

A chat bot, not a viewer bot

Searching for “Twitch bot” also turns up services that fake viewers or followers. Vidari is not one of them: VidariBOT is a chat and moderation bot. It does not create viewers, followers or subscriptions – that breaks Twitch's rules.

Frequently asked questions

Is Vidari's Twitch bot free?

Yes. Vidari Free costs nothing and has no time limit: all 74 built-in commands, up to 25 custom commands, timers, auto-moderation, loyalty points, mini-games and an alert overlay. Vidari Pro costs €0.00 and Vidari Ultimate €0.00, each per channel per month.

Can the bot write under my own name?

Yes, with Vidari Pro. You link your own Twitch account, for example “MyChannelBot”, and Vidari then writes under that name instead of as VidariBOT.

Does my PC need to be on for the bot to work?

No. VidariBOT runs around the clock on Vidari's servers. Timers, moderation and loyalty points work as soon as you are live – whether you stream with OBS, Vidari Studio or a console.

Which rights does VidariBOT need?

Vidari requests the Twitch rights its features need, such as writing messages, moderating and starting polls and predictions. If a right is missing, the dashboard settings show which feature is affected and let you grant it with one click.
