Running Lower Thirds for your production has never been easier

Overlay Manager connects directly with your OBS, vMix or any other streaming software.

1 Start App

Available for macOS and Windows, the app can be started with an integrated server or connect to an external server in larger production enviroments.

2 Add to Streaming Software

Go to your streaming software and add the Output-Link as a new Browser Source.

3 🚀 Fire Overlays on-time

Quickly select or search for the lower third you need and fire it with automatic timer or manual control, even if it's already live.

Instant sync on your network

All connected app instances will be in the same state at any time to ensure reliability and collaboration. The app brings its own local server so as not to depend on an external server in a critical live production.

Your Library & Favorites

All the lower-thirds you create are stored in the server app and are available on all clients. For each show, you can decide which lower thirds you need and display only them to speed up your workflow.

Quick access on pinned

You can pin general Lower Thirds for having a quick access if they are needed. Pinned Lower Thirds show up at the top of the list.

Protect and Cleanup

After each show you can simply clean up your Lower Thirds Library with the click of a button. All Lower Thirds will be removed except for those which are protected. This eables you to have a basic set for every show. These are also protected against accidental change.

Search as you type

If you have a lot of Lower Thirds, the fastest way to find them is to type any containing word in the search bar. The search will immediately display results if there is a match.

Drag'n'Drop sorting

In Favorites and Pinned, it is possible to sort the Lower Thirds on all devices using drag and drop. So you can prepare your Lower Thirds according to your cue list.

Export and Import datasets

To prepare for an event or simply to create a backup, you can export all or only a subset of the Lower-Thirds as a human-readable JSON file. This file can be imported at any time to replace all Lower-Thirds or merge with the existing ones.

Automatic Timer

An automatic timer ensures that a Lower-Third is consistent in the displayed time. It is possible to switch to manual mode, pause or hide the current Lower-Third at any time.

Build own Themes with
maximum flexibility

You can use the power of modern browser technology including HTML, CSS and JavaScript to make sure that your special Lower-Third design is possible.
