A look at GLITCH in action — Lurk OS handling chat, personality, and the bit on stream.

Live Chat AI Response

GLITCH replying to live Rumble chat — short, in-character, viewer-aware responses to !ai commands.

What Lurk OS Does

🧠

AI Memory

Lurk OS remembers every viewer who walks into your chat. Names, inside jokes, callbacks from streams three weeks ago — it stays in context so the AI never sounds generic.

Everything trains and runs on your machine. No third-party server is storing your audience.

  • Per-viewer memory bank, fully local
  • Callbacks across multiple streams
  • Optional opt-in/opt-out per chatter
  • Exportable, editable, deletable on demand
🎵

Soundboard Economy

Built-in viewer monetization. Chatters earn or buy sound-triggers and fire them live during the stream — a layered, interactive soundboard that drives engagement instead of just a tip jar.

  • Custom sounds, custom prices
  • Anti-spam cooldowns and queue control
  • Currency hooks for points / tips / subs
  • OBS-friendly trigger output
⚙️

OBS Ready

Drop a browser source into OBS and you're done. Lurk OS overlays, alerts, and the soundboard plug into your scene with a single URL — no extra plugins, no scripts to maintain.

  • Browser-source overlays out of the box
  • Transparent backgrounds, scene-aware
  • Hotkey-friendly OBS WebSocket support
  • Works alongside your existing OBS setup
🔒

Local Only

The AI runs on your hardware. Chat logs, viewer data, soundboard config — none of it leaves your PC unless you choose to back it up. No cloud account, no monthly bill, no platform deciding your data lives somewhere else.

  • 100% local AI inference
  • Self-contained data folder you control
  • Offline-capable after install
  • No telemetry, no analytics phone-home

How Lurk OS Compares

Honest comparisons, not marketing. Lurk OS is good at some things and explicitly not trying to be others. If a product on this list is the right tool for your job, use it.

vs Rumble's built-in bot

Rumble bot

Server-side. Timers, simple !commands, basic auto-mod. No AI. No memory of past viewers. Read-only from your side — you can't extend it.

Lurk OS

Everything Rumble's bot does, plus:

  • Local AI co-host with semantic memory
  • Per-viewer profile (mod / regular / VIP / first-chat)
  • Soundboard with event triggers
  • Dual-currency viewer economy with games
  • Affiliate rotation
  • BRB AI mini-podcast generator
  • TTS + STT pipelines

Reads chat via SSE direct from Rumble (real-time). Sends through YOUR logged-in account, so replies look like the streamer — not a third-party bot agent that viewers have to trust separately.

vs Streamer.bot

Streamer.bot

Visual node-editor automation. Heavy on Twitch hooks (Twitch is its native platform). Excellent for complex if-this-then-that flows. No bundled AI. No semantic memory. No TTS-with-memory.

Lurk OS

Rumble-first. AI is a first-class citizen, not a plugin you have to wire up. Less flexible than Streamer.bot's node graph; more out-of-the-box for streaming + AI.

Lurk OS BRIDGES to Streamer.bot via the bundled WebSocket relay (VGC_BOT/streamerbot_relay.py) if you want both: Lurk OS for AI / BRB / economy, Streamer.bot for visual automation.

vs Streamlabs (Desktop / Cloudbot)

Streamlabs

Cloud-hosted bot + an OBS-derived encoder UI. Twitch + YouTube focused. Closed source. Subscriptions for advanced features. Your chat data lives on their servers.

Lurk OS

Fully local. No subscription. No cloud dependency for AI or chat storage. Your chat data stays in shared_data/chats/ on YOUR machine.

No streaming encoder built in — you bring OBS. (We think encoding is OBS's job, not the bot's.)

vs Mix It Up Bot

Mix It Up

Free, open-source bot. Strong command / games support. Twitch / YouTube / Trovo native — not Rumble. No AI. No semantic memory.

Lurk OS

Similar command + games surface (12-command built-in suite plus a dual-currency economy with duels, heists, rolls, gifts, gear), AND adds:

  • Local AI co-host with semantic memory
  • BRB AI mini-podcast generator
  • Voice in (STT) + voice out (Piper TTS)
  • Affiliate-aware AI prompts

Rumble is the native platform; chat is read via SSE directly. Mix It Up doesn't currently support Rumble.

vs OBS Studio + plugins (the DIY baseline)

DIY

OBS Studio + advanced-scene-switcher + browser-source overlays + custom Lua / Python scripts + a separate chat bot tool + a separate sound-effect tool + a separate alert tool. Maximum flexibility, maximum maintenance.

Lurk OS

Replaces the "plus" — the 10+ plugins, the bot, the AI overlay, the chat reader, the soundboard, the BRB system — with one Python program you can read. OBS still does the streaming; Lurk OS does the brain.

If you love wiring plugins together, the DIY route stays flexible. If you want it to work end-to-end out of the box, this is the tradeoff.

FAQ

Does Lurk OS need an internet connection?

Only to read your chat from the stream platform. The AI itself runs locally — no cloud inference, no API keys.

Which streaming platforms are supported?

Rumble first, with Twitch / YouTube / Kick integrations planned. The plugin layer is modular so new platforms drop in without rebuilding the core.

How much does it cost?

One-time price, no subscription. See the current price on the Gumroad listing.

Will my viewer data ever leave my PC?

No. Lurk OS is local-only by design. You can export or back up your data, but nothing is uploaded automatically.

Can I run Lurk OS without a GPU?

Technically yes, but a modern NVIDIA GPU is strongly recommended. CPU-only inference is noticeably slower and limits which AI features you can enable.
