Raid without leaving your stream setup

Your raid train lives on R3dLabs, but you stream in OBS with a Stream Deck under your hand and a chat to keep up with. These three tools bring your lineup, your raid target, and the raid itself into the software you already have open.

FirePanel: A raid and stream HUD for Twitch streamers

FirePanel docks straight into OBS as a custom browser dock, so you can see who is live, build a raid queue, check your raid train schedule, and fire off a raid without ever tabbing away from your stream.

Read more about FirePanel or open https://firepanel.r3dlabs.com.

Panels inside FirePanel

  • Chat: Read and send Twitch chat from inside OBS, with an emote picker, @mention autocomplete, and slash commands like /announce and /raid.
  • Viewers: See who is watching with total, real, and known-bot counts. Filter to mods, VIPs, or bots, then raid or ban a viewer straight from their card.
  • Who's Online: One live list combining the channels you follow and your R3dLabs teammates. Sort by viewers or uptime, then queue or raid any of them.
  • Events: Your R3dLabs raid train schedule, including a live banner for your active slot that tells you exactly who your raid target is.

FirePanel features

  • Your raid target, front and center: When your raid train slot is live, FirePanel shows the on-deck streamer and flips to "click to raid" the moment they go live.
  • Build a raid queue: Add streamers from Who's Online or your teammates list, drag to reorder, and keep a backup target ready if plans change.
  • Floating raid button: A draggable one-tap raid button shows your next target's avatar and flashes a notification when they come online.
  • Find your teammates: A dedicated popout lists every R3dLabs Teams teammate who is live right now, with shared team names and viewer counts.
  • Never tab away: Built for narrow OBS docks and tuned for long streams, so chat stays connected and the panel refreshes itself in the background.
  • Free, and no extra account: Sign in with the Twitch account you already stream from. If you use R3dLabs, FirePanel already knows your schedule and teams.

How to add FirePanel to OBS

  • In OBS, open Docks → Custom Browser Docks
  • Add a dock named FirePanel pointing at https://firepanel.r3dlabs.com
  • Dock it beside your preview and sign in with Twitch

R3dLabs Toolbox: One-press raiding on your Stream Deck

R3dLabs Toolbox turns a single Stream Deck key into your raid button. It watches your raid train for the next streamer in line, lights up the moment they go live, and raids them when you press it.

Read more about R3dLabs Toolbox or install it from the Elgato Marketplace.

Stream Deck key states

  • No raid target: You are linked, but your raid train has not handed you a target yet.
  • Raid target acquired: Your next streamer is locked in. The key shows their name and waits for them to go live.
  • Raid now: They are live. Press the key to send your viewers their way.
  • Raiding: The raid is on its way. Press again during the countdown to cancel it.

Stream Deck plugin features

  • Knows who is next: The key pulls the on-deck streamer from your active R3dLabs raid train slot, so you never have to look up who you are raiding.
  • Lights up on go-live: Toolbox checks Twitch every few seconds and switches the key from orange to red the instant your target starts streaming.
  • Shows their name: The key art is generated with your target's display name on it, so a glance at your deck tells you where the raid is headed.
  • Raid in one press: No commands, no tabbing to Twitch. Press once to start the raid, press again during the countdown to cancel.
  • Setup takes one click: Link your Twitch account from the plugin's settings panel. No API keys, no usernames to type, no separate login.
  • Free on the Marketplace: Install it from the Elgato Marketplace like any other plugin and it appears under the R3dLabs Toolbox category.

How to set up the Stream Deck plugin

  • Install R3dLabs Toolbox from the Elgato Marketplace
  • Drag the Raid Now action onto any key
  • Click Link Twitch Account and approve the raid permission

Requirements

  • Stream Deck 6.5 or later
  • macOS 10.15+ or Windows 10+
  • A R3dLabs raid train slot

R3ddyBot: A Twitch chat bot that knows your raid train

R3ddyBot is the R3dLabs Twitch chat bot for raid trains. !raidnow raids the next streamer in your lineup and tells chat when they go live. Commands, timers, event actions, and AI personalities all live in one web console.

Read more about R3ddyBot or open the R3ddyBot console.

What R3ddyBot does on a raid train

  • !raidnow — Raid the next streamer in one command: R3ddyBot asks R3dLabs who holds the next slot on your live event and sends the raid there. No opening the schedule, no spelling a username wrong on your way out the door.
  • Tells chat when your target goes live: R3dLabs pings R3ddyBot the moment the next streamer in the lineup starts broadcasting — and again if they drop offline — so your chat knows the handoff is coming.
  • Posts who is live now and who is next: Lineup announcements go out on a timer with the next few start times in your timezone and a link to the event, so viewers who just walked in can follow the whole train.
  • Runs the organizer's script for them: Organizers queue messages on the event and R3ddyBot rotates them through whichever streamer is live, so every channel on the train shares the same charity link, hashtag, or house rule.
  • !calendar — Announces your upcoming raid trains: The R3dLabs calendar module posts your upcoming events on a timer, either the closest one or a rotation through all of them, and viewers can ask for the list whenever they like.

Inside the R3ddyBot console

  • Dashboard: A live snapshot of chat messages, viewers, AI replies, and Twitch events, plus a feed of everything the bot just did.
  • Commands: Custom chat commands with up to ten aliases each, access levels from everyone to broadcaster-only, and usage counts.
  • Timers: Scheduled messages that post only once both the time interval and a minimum amount of chat activity are met.
  • Events: Automatic responses to follows, subs, resubs, cheers, and incoming raids.
  • Modules: Pre-built features you install and configure, including shoutouts, AI chat engagement, and R3dLabs calendar posts.
  • AI Personalities: Named instruction sets that shape how the bot writes. One is active at a time, so you can switch tone per stream.

R3ddyBot features

  • Writes its own messages: Every command, timer, and event action can post fixed text or let AI generate the line, as a normal chat message or a highlighted Twitch announcement.
  • Answers your chat: The AI engagement module reads along and replies when it has something worth saying. A sensitivity dial sets how often, and exclude patterns keep it out of conversations you would rather it skipped.
  • Takes orders from your other tools: Modules can expose a webhook, so OBS, a Stream Deck key, or anything else that can send a POST request can make the bot say something.
  • Won't spam your chat: A global limiter caps how often automated messages go out, holding extras in a queue you can review or cancel.
  • Ignores who you tell it to: Mute the bot for specific viewers, or only for commands, AI, modules, or events. Known bots can be filtered out entirely.
  • Use your own bot account: Run it as the shared @r3ddybot account or connect your own Twitch account so messages come from a name you picked.

How to add R3ddyBot to your channel

  • Sign in with Twitch at console.r3ddybot.com
  • Mod @r3ddybot in your channel so it can post announcements
  • Switch the bot on, then add your first command or timer
  • Install the R3dLabs modules to turn on raid and calendar announcements

Frequently asked questions

What tools does R3dLabs make?
Three. FirePanel is a free Twitch raid HUD that docks inside OBS, R3dLabs Toolbox is a free Elgato Stream Deck plugin that raids your next raid train target with one key press, and R3ddyBot is a Twitch chat bot that raids the next streamer with !raidnow and announces your lineup in chat.
Do the tools cost anything?
FirePanel and the R3dLabs Toolbox Stream Deck plugin are free. R3ddyBot has a free plan, and its paid plans raise the bot's limits and include R3dLabs Membership at the same time.
Do I need a R3dLabs account to use them?
You sign in with Twitch, and all three work best when you are on a R3dLabs raid train. Raid train targets, teams, and event schedules all come from your R3dLabs account, which is free to create.
Can I use all three at the same time?
Yes, and they cover different jobs. FirePanel shows you the schedule and lineup on screen, and R3ddyBot keeps your chat in the loop. When it is time to go, send the raid from a Stream Deck key or with !raidnow in your own chat — whichever is closer to hand. All three read the same R3dLabs raid train.
