The Subathon
for Yappers
Viewers' subs and tips don't add time… they add words to your yapping quota. Speak every word live on stream before you're allowed to end your stream.
Get started now with no account
Enter your Twitch channel, pick your mic, and hit start. No account needed.
Keep track of the total number of words you've yapped AND count down the amount of words left.
Pacing reference: The average person speaks about 9,000 words per hour (~150 words per minute).
How it works
Pick a word goal
Set a target like 50,000 words. Your subathon ends only when your word counter hits zero.
Chat adds words
Every sub (+1,000 words), 100 bits (+500 words), or tip adds to your quota in real time.
Yap to survive
Our live speech detection listens to your mic and counts every single spoken word.
Free vs Creator
Everything you need to run a Yap-a-Thon is free. You don't even need an account.
The Creator features add some nice extras that I (as a solo dev) would personally need to pay for, like better STT (Speech-to-Text) for very precise word counting, donation tracking, Twitch follow events, and more.
