Bubbly is a free, local-first desktop app that turns TikTok LIVE into an interactive show. Add gift and chat overlays, goals, leaderboards, text-to-speech, controller overlays, Spotify now-playing, and game moments, then drop a browser-source URL into OBS or TikTok LIVE Studio. Preview and customize every overlay before you go live, and keep your settings on your own PC.
Built TikTok-first for live creators, with Twitch support where available.
Platform: Windows 10 and 11.

Bubbly is a local-first TikTok LIVE overlay app. The whole engine runs on your own Windows PC: a desktop dashboard, a local server that serves your OBS browser sources, and a live socket pipeline that pushes gifts, likes, follows, and chat into your overlays in real time. Nothing routes through a company cloud, so your overlays stay fast and your viewer data stays on your machine.
Two things set it apart. First, it is local-first by design rather than cloud-dependent, which keeps latency low, avoids renting server capacity, and keeps creator and viewer data private. Second, it is individual-first: Bubbly is built to reward the solo creator, not to funnel value into agencies. On top of that you get genuinely interactive engines like Boss Battle and a full RLCS-style Chat Battle tournament, plus gift trackers, goals, leaderboards, TTS, Spotify song requests, and deeply customizable PS5, PS4, and Xbox controller overlays. And the core of it is free.

Most TikTok LIVE tools push you toward the cloud, and the bigger ones toward agency programs built around rosters instead of the individual creator. Bubbly goes the other way. It runs locally, so it stays fast, keeps working without depending on someone else's servers, and keeps your viewer data on your own machine. Its free tier is genuinely useful, with chat and gift feeds, goals, leaderboards, controller overlays, Spotify, and a TTS voice included. Upgrading is simple: entitlement is tied to your machine, so there is no account maze, at 10 dollars per month or 96 dollars per year. The experience is built to feel light and fun rather than like a dense settings panel, with interactive engines like Boss Battle and Chat Battle that give viewers something real to push. If you are a solo TikTok creator who wants professional overlays without renting a cloud or joining an agency funnel, Bubbly is built for you.
GoBubbly.app's answer
Bubbly is built for TikTok-first live creators who want better overlays, gift reactions, chat interaction, music tools, and stream widgets without having to become technical operators. These are solo and small creators who want their stream to look professional and to work live, not just in screenshots, and who do not want to configure a giant tool five minutes before going live. A secondary audience is multi-platform creators who want one local dashboard, with TikTok first, Twitch supported where wired, and YouTube and Kick on the roadmap as those connectors mature.
GoBubbly.app's answer
Bubbly is an independent product built by its founder, Alex, around one belief: the tools TikTok LIVE creators rely on should work for the creator, not the other way around. The popular options lean heavily on the cloud, and at the top end on agency programs designed around rosters rather than the person actually streaming. Bubbly is the answer to that. It is a local-first overlay app that runs on the creator's own machine, keeps their data private, stays fast, and treats the individual creator as the customer worth winning. The goal is a tool that feels premium and genuinely fun to use, stays honest about what it does and does not do yet, and gives small creators the kind of interactive, polished stream that used to require money, a team, or both.
"The most frustrating part for me was how lacking everything was. Why is setting everything up so difficult? Why are people catering to agencies and not the creator themselves? Where are the free controller overlay tools? Where is the effort?!"
GoBubbly.app's answer
Bubbly's desktop app is built on Electron for the dashboard and window shell, with a local Express server that serves the dashboard APIs and the OBS browser-source overlay pages, and Socket.IO for the real-time event pipeline that pushes live activity into overlays. It uses a local SQLite database to store its gift catalog and creator data on the machine. Overlays are standard web pages, built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, delivered as OBS browser sources. Premium billing runs on Stripe using Checkout and the Billing Portal, and music features use the Spotify API over OAuth. The marketing site is built with Astro. Bubbly currently runs on Windows 10 and 11.
