How it works

A simple feedback loop for every show

Start the show, capture the vibe, adjust in real time, and get a read on what your audience likes — or doesn't.

  1. 1

    Go live in one click

    Start a show and drop your link in chat. Voting opens immediately — no plugin, no overlay, nothing to configure mid-show.

  2. 2

    Listeners share how they feel

    Listeners rate each segment as it happens. Votes reset when the segment changes, so every score belongs to the conversation that earned it.

  3. 3

    You steer while it still matters

    See the room react in real time, then steer the conversation while a change can still make a difference.

  4. 4

    You wrap with receipts

    Every segment comes back scored and ranked. You stop guessing at what worked and use real data to plan your next show.

Features

The rest of your control room

Explore the features that make your show interactive, engaging and monetizable. Every feature is optional, and you can switch them on or off to fit your vibe.

    • Monetization stays intact — you keep every dollar you make today
    • Super Chats and memberships still work via the YouTube embed.
    • Listeners can watch, vote, chat and participate all on one page.

    Monetization stays intact

  2. Ad placements

Custom branding

It should look like your show, not like our app

Upload your logo, pick your accent, choose the gauge's color ramp — then switch it on for your public page, your dashboard, or both. Start from a preset or dial in your own hex; everything below is the real thing, repainting the same gauge.

Your logo

Sits top-left of every page your listeners open.

Drop a new one, or browsePNG, JPEG, WebP or SVG — you’ll crop it to a square
Accent color

Buttons, highlights and links across your page.

Gauge ramp

The arc your listeners watch — the page repaints as you choose.

Or build your own from two ends

The app's own header stays HeatCheck, so the tool always looks like the tool. Everything your listeners see is yours — and turning branding off keeps your saved design exactly where you left it.

Stream overlays

Put the room on your stream

Seven shapes, eight widgets, your colors and a backdrop to match your scene — as a browser source your streaming app composites over the video. Build it here, paste the URL into OBS once, and it keeps working for every show after.

One URL, pasted once

An overlay belongs to you, not to a show — so the browser source you set up tonight is still right in six months, whatever you're streaming.

OBS, Streamlabs and Streamyard

Six shapes composite into a scene as a transparent layer; the seventh is a window you share, for Streamyard, which has no browser source at all.

One per scene, if you like

Build as many as you want and keep them side by side — a lower third for the main scene, a full screen for the break, each with its own address.

Build your first overlay

Free to build and preview on any plan — going on air is part of Pro.
