Get a Live Transcript of Any Twitch Stream in Real Time
Paste a twitch.tv URL and LiveScript transcribes the live audio as it airs - full-text search, keyword alerts, multilingual mode for Spanish or French streams, and VTT/SRT export when the broadcast ends.
Free plan available. No credit card required. Also supports YouTube live streams.
Live Twitch player embedded for example - paste your own channel on the Enter page to start transcribing.
Why search the transcript instead of just watching?
Twitch streams run for hours. If you are tracking a specific phrase - a player call-out, a sponsor mention, a regulatory keyword on a finance stream - scrubbing isn't fast enough. LiveScript turns the audio into searchable text the moment it is spoken, so you can grep a 6-hour broadcast in milliseconds.
Just watching live
- Easy to miss the one phrase that matters
- No way to search past minutes of stream
- No alerts when keywords appear
- Nothing to export afterwards
LiveScript on Twitch
- Every word indexed as it is spoken
- Audio alerts on tagged keywords
- English-only or multilingual mode
- Export full transcript as VTT or SRT

- 2
Watch the live transcript build in real time
Within seconds, every spoken word appears in the transcript pane next to the embedded Twitch player. Search, scroll, or jump - it stays in sync with the live edge.

Search, filter, or set keyword alerts

Who uses live Twitch transcripts
Anyone who needs to act on a specific spoken phrase before a stream's chat or a clip catches up.
Esports analysts and bettors
Live commentary often signals injuries, lineup swaps, or momentum shifts before sportsbook lines move.
Crypto and finance streamers' viewers
Track when a streamer mentions a specific ticker, protocol, or regulatory keyword across a multi-hour broadcast.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get a transcript of a Twitch stream while it is live?+
Yes. Paste any twitch.tv/<channel> URL and LiveScript transcribes the live audio in real time. Words appear in your browser within seconds of being spoken - searchable, taggable, exportable.
Does it work on every Twitch live channel?+
It works on any publicly viewable Twitch live channel. Sub-only or private streams are not supported. Subscriber-locked audio is treated the same way an unauthenticated browser would treat it.
How is this different from Twitch's own captioning?+
Twitch's caption support is patchy and varies by streamer. LiveScript runs an always-on transcription pipeline you control: search the full transcript history, tag keywords for audio alerts, switch English-only to multilingual mode, and download VTT or SRT files when the stream ends.
How fast does the transcript update?+
Pro users see words within roughly 2-5 seconds of when they are spoken. Free users see the same transcript with a 5-minute delay and 30 minutes of history.
Does it support Spanish or multilingual streams?+
Yes. Pro users can toggle a multilingual mode on the Enter screen that handles Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and many other languages - including streams that switch between languages mid-sentence. English-only mode gives the highest accuracy on pure-English audio.
Can I get alerts when specific keywords are spoken?+
Yes. Add keyword tags to a stream and LiveScript plays a sound the instant any tag is matched. Useful for tracking specific phrases on a live esports broadcast, charity stream, or news commentary channel.
What about Twitch VODs (past broadcasts)?+
VOD support is on the roadmap. Live channels work today; VOD URLs (twitch.tv/videos/<id>) are not yet supported.
Can I download the transcript afterwards?+
Yes - Pro users can download any transcript as VTT or SubRip (SRT) subtitles directly from the Watch page. Drop the file into any video editor, captioning tool, or your archive.
Is there a free plan?+
Yes - free plan gets live transcript search with a 5-minute delay and 30 minutes of history, one stream at a time. The Pro plan is real-time, unlimited streams, multilingual, and full history.
