01 / THE MOMENT

A staged example. Real rooms form from what viewers write in chat.

NO SEARCHING. NO AWKWARD INTRODUCTIONS.

A moment.
A match.
A room.

You’re already part of the conversation.
We just make it a little smaller.

01
▤

Be yourself in chat.

The clutch. The questionable pick. The plot twist nobody asked for. React as you normally would.

zoe tell me i'm not the only one who wanted Brim

Find a shared wavelength.

Roommate picks up a specific topic and the people reacting to it. A burst of emojis alone won’t cut it.

Take it to the side.

Get an invitation over the stream. Join a small, temporary room and keep watching together. Always your choice.

THE STREAM CHANGES. SO DOES THE CONVERSATION.

There’s a room
for that feeling.

Not permanent servers. Not another group to manage.
Just the right people, for right now.

EXAMPLE ROOM / 01

We need to talk
about that ending.

The credits roll. Your jaw is still on the floor. Find the other viewers connecting the same dots.

THE ENDING DEBRIEF ↗

SMALL ROOMS. YOUR RULES.

An invitation.
Never an obligation.

Joining is optional. Leave whenever. Dismiss an invite, mute a topic, or report a room. Conversations expire, so the next moment can have its own space.

✓ Invitation only✓ Same stream✓ Temporary by design

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING

Good questions.

Does this replace the main chat?+

No. Keep chatting in the stream as usual. Roommate adds a small conversation around a shared moment while the main chat keeps moving.

Do I get joined automatically?+

Never. You choose whether to accept each invitation. You can also dismiss it or mute the topic.

Why do I need to share my identity?+

With your permission, Twitch confirms which chat messages belong to you so Roommate can deliver your invitations. The Extension asks you to link your identity before matching invitations.

Can I install it right now?+

Roommate is currently a hackathon prototype in Twitch Hosted Test. You can explore the live Signal Lab and the interactive example here.
