Only one answer opens at a time so the page stays easy to scan.

01What is the easiest way to use Twitch Control?

Think of Twitch Control as two phases. Before you go live, work through Stream Setup steps 01–03: create the title, prepare the Go Live notification, then complete preflight. While you are live, step 04 gives you chat announcements and clip creation. The advanced schedule and tag controls are optional.

02What does Generate & Push change on Twitch?

Generate & Push creates a new stream title from your saved brand, selected event, category, style, and recent results. When Twitch is connected, GFS immediately publishes that title. Your selected category and channel tags are included whenever you use the full Review & Push action.

03Why does the Go Live notification still need to be copied?

Twitch does not provide an API that lets GFS publish the follower-facing Go Live notification. Regenerate the notification until it feels right, choose Copy Notification, open Twitch Stream Info, and paste it into the notification field. This is a Twitch limitation, not a missing GFS setting.

04What is Twitch preflight?

Preflight is the final review before you start streaming. It checks the Twitch connection, selected event, category, tags, live-tool permissions, and stream title. Review & Push sends the current title, category, and tags together. Add Event to Twitch is separate and only adds the chosen GFS event to your Twitch schedule.

05Why are the live tools unavailable?

Create Clip is available only while Twitch reports that the channel is live. Schedule publishing, chat announcements, and clips also use newer Twitch permissions. If GFS says Reconnect once, reconnect Twitch one time to approve those permissions. Your existing GFS events and brand settings are not removed.

06How should I use chat announcements and clips?

Use Send Announcement for something worth highlighting in chat: a welcome, guest, important update, or clear call to action. Avoid repeating the same message too often. Use Create Clip immediately after a strong live moment; Twitch opens the clip editor so you can trim it and give it a useful title.

07Does GFS create the artwork?

No. GFS creates the complete flyer prompt and identifies the original assets to use. You copy the prompt into the AI image generator you already use, attach the listed images, and review the result before publishing.

08Does GFS need my AI password?

Never. Your external AI account remains separate. GFS does not request or store its credentials.

09What happens to my brand assets?

Uploaded logos and portraits are stored privately for your GFS account and used only to prepare your design directions and prompt instructions.

10How many prompts can I generate?

Free accounts include 25 prompt generations per calendar month. Signed-in supporters receive a higher fair-use allowance of 1,500 prompts per month.

11How does supporter access work?

A signed-in contribution of $5 or more activates the higher prompt allowance. One-time support lasts 30 days; monthly support continues while payments remain active and can be canceled through Stripe. Smaller contributions are welcome but do not change the allowance. Contributions never provide priority support.

KEEP GFS INDEPENDENT

Want to help cover the costs?

Choose a one-time or monthly contribution. Signed-in contributions of $5 or more receive the higher prompt allowance, but never faster support.
