Investigation Post - StreamLabs

StreamLabs (formerly known as TwitchAlerts) is an online tool for streaming. What StreamLabs does is provide various tools such as follow alerts and donation notifications that will appear on stream and can be freely formatted with various designs, sounds, and images, which are provided or can be uploaded on your own. StreamLabs also offers a quick and easy way to process donations, as well as offering detailed analytics and timelines of various events like follows or subscriptions. StreamLabs also offers a downloadable program called StreamLabels, which produces small .txt files that contain information like the most recent follower or top donator, which can be used with the option in the Text source option called "read from file", which will display the text inside of a file. Streamers will also use StreamLabs to display versions of the chat that appear cleaner or more professional compared to simply window capturing the chat, as well as displaying the last 4 to 5 events (follows, subs, donations, etc.). StreamLabs has become a vital tool for livestreamers to interact with viewers and have a more professional stream.
