Answering viewer questions and moderating chat while gaming can be a tall order for streamers on Twitch. Nightbot can help make streaming and managing an active chatroom much easier.

Communicating with viewers and keeping them engaged are two critical elements of streaming. However, keeping the chat clean and answering viewer questions while also streaming can be hectic. A cloud-based chatbot can do all of that with just a few short commands.

Nightbot is a popular chatbot for live streaming, providing automated responses and moderation in chat. With its default commands to plenty of customizable features, Nightbot can become your advanced chat moderator for free.

It’s very useful for esports streamers who may want to focus entirely on their game and those who get a lot of live viewers. But the main purpose of Nightbot is to ensure a smooth viewer experience regardless of the live viewer count.
