Bot Chat Badge A chat badge to identify yourself in Twitch chat as a bot.
Motivation:
Twitch has been allowing users to mark accounts as Known and Verified bots for a few years now. This process is explained in detail in the official developer documentation. This is documented here: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/guide#known-and-verified-bots
There are more than 18,065 Known Bots on Twitch. Among them, we are also a Verified Bot used by more than 700,000 streamers.
We get all DMs in Slack channels and regularly check how users interact with our Verified Bot. Unfortunately, we often find that users mistake the account for a real lurker,…

An assignable Bot badge The option to assign a bot specific badge to your desired bot account, to help users in chat identify the difference between a human moderator and a bot.
This would especially be useful for people who use custom bot names, as viewers can mistake them for real people.35 votes -
Allow Bots to access Emotes Many streamers have their bots use emotes. Currently the streamer needs to gift their bot a subscription in order to do this. However, this seems wasteful and unnecessary since the bot isn't using any video bandwidth and therefore causes limited costs to Twitch.
Twitch should give emote access to all known bots, and for bots that use custom accounts (such as MixItUp bot) allow the account holder to mark those accounts as a bot (with Twitch regulating this by only allowing those "bot" accounts to view chat and prevent those "bot" accounts viewing the actual video content of streams so…

Add integrated bot There should be an option to set up a bot without making a new account.
How it would work?
You would have a bot tab, which allows you to get a link to connect other services to it like streamelements, streamlabs, etcWhat are the benefits:
1) people don't have to get their bots a subscription
2) it's extremely easy to customise
3) no one has a reason to create bot accounts unless it's meant with malice. Which would help a ton with things like tracking follow bots and hate raid bots.22 votes -
Shared Chat: Allow sending message to own channel only During shared chat sessions, allow chat bots (connected via IRC or EventSub + Helix Send Chat Message, both streamer account and bot account) to send a message to only the streamer's channel. With multiple users in shared chat, it easily gets flooded by the multiple chatbots.

Give chat bots a [bot] tag and separate them into their own user level/category I acknowledge that some parts of this concept has been requested in general, however I would like to offer a possible solution that will solve many of the suggestions at once, as well as offer further features down the line.
---Core Suggestions---
I believe it would be beneficial to have chat bots strongly encouraged to note their account as such, and if possible, for known legitimate bots (bots that are known to serve a valid purpose, not lurk bots, stat scrapers, etc.) to be assigned a [bot] tag internally in the system, similar to how some other chat platforms handle…

disappearing message for temporary info Often chat got filling by commands like !songrequest or votes via chatbot. It will be nice if we will have /temp command or way to mark message as temporary that will post message that will disapear after some time (like 10 seconds). Like as we can remove messages via bot uses twitch api, but without "message was deleted" stub.
Which will be useful for bot responces and make chat more readable. Also it can be used for joking around while streamer dont look in chat.10 votes -

Twitch Pin msg for bots Ich weiß, dass Twitch verhindern möchte, dass Bots Befehle mit "/" missbrauchen. Wäre es trotzdem möglich, nur den Befehl "/pin {MESSAGE}" zuzulassen, damit man mit Stream-Elementen oder streamer.bot beispielsweise Nachrichten für Event-Infos oder Neuigkeiten automatisch pinnen kann. Also "/pin Ich habe Neuigkeiten über meinen Hund" und zwar nur für Moderatoren, was auch Bots sein können, wenn sie die Rechte dafür haben.
I know that Twitch wants to prevent bots from misusing commands with "/". Would it still be possible to only allow the command "/pin {MESSAGE}" so that you can automatically pin messages for event information or news with stream…

Include Subscription Tier in IRC Tags Currently there is a tag for viewing if a user is subscribed or not, but it doesn't provide the context of which tier the user is subscribed at (1,2, or 3). As such, developers have to make an API call either for every message, or concoct a cache system that becomes needlessly complicated.
Thanks!

Chatbot integrated into Twitch Integrate a Chatbot category into the Twitch Dashboard.
You'll be able to change your nickname, and do everything Streamlabs/StreamElements/other bots can do. No need to log on to a bunch of different Twitch platforms.

StreamElements bot hangul support Streamelements chat bot does not recognize hangul characters when streamers do shoutouts and report API ERROR when doing so. It's been like this sine it was first pushed out and seems to have not been fixed at all. Any plans that this gets fixed or do I have to submit a ticket to have my display name changed in english since Korean display name users can't change their display name?

Allow unverified bots that are mods to whisper users in that chat Problem:
- Right now it appears as if a self-hosted and thus unverified bot with a separate standard Twitch account is shadow-banned from whispering people through WebSockets (wss://irc-ws.chat.twitch.tv:443). It looks like it works, but the messages never arrive, I've tried with my own bot account and friend's bots.Solution:
- To me, it seems reasonable that a bot that has been set to be moderator in a channel should also be able to whisper users that are currently connected to that same channel.Additions:
- It could even be further restricted to when the channel is live if need be.…3 votes -
Chat Bot - No rate limit for Replies Hi, currently the global chat message rate limit for bot accounts also applies to them replying to users writing it. This significantly limits their usefulness.
Because of that I'd like to suggest the following change to the rate limit:
* When a user whispers a chat bot the chat bot should be allowed to reply to that user for the next few minutes with e.g. a confirmation message. Even if 15k users almost simultaneously sent a whisper to the bot user.
* The phone number verification enforcement for sending whispers should be able to be disabled. (It is only useful…2 votes -
Can Channel Bots Be Smarter with Resource Allocation? Ever feel like your channel bot is just going through the motions?
It posts on timers, replies to basic commands, and that’s about it.But what if it could analyze chat energy and know the best time to act?
Like promoting a stream goal right when engagement spikes.
Or temporarily muting non-essential replies during high-intensity gameplay.
Imagine a bot that invests its actions based on what’s actually happening live.
One that learns from your community and optimizes how it responds.
Instead of being a simple tool, it becomes a smart teammate.Do we need a new standard for bots that…

Improve Conduit Load Distribution Currently, Conduits use the channel ID as the basis for hashing, even for user-related events like channel.chat.message. While this may simplify internal handling, it can lead to uneven load distribution—especially when a single large channel generates a high volume of messages. This results in one shard being overloaded while others remain underutilized.
Feature Request:
Add support for configurable hashing strategies per Conduit, allowing developers to choose the most suitable approach based on their use case. Suggested options include:
user_id – For user-centric events, to spread load more evenly across users.
channel_id – Maintain current behavior for channel-focused workloads.
