OBS scenes, chat shortcuts, clip-and-post, and every tool you juggle mid-stream — on one flick. A Stream Deck alternative that lives on your trackpad.
A live session means juggling OBS Studio or Streamlabs for scenes, Chrome for chat and the creator dashboard, Discord for the community channel, Spotify for music, CleanShot for grabs, a soundboard, and the browser source you have to refresh because the alert widget hung again. All while you are talking to a camera and pretending it is fine.
Stream Decks solve this with fifteen hardware buttons and a $150 price tag. A radial menu solves the same problem on a mouse side button — one gesture, eight to twelve wedges, sub-menus for scene collections. Live, under pressure, a flick is faster than hunting a key. And it costs the price of a coffee subscription.
Concrete wedge configurations for going live, switching scenes, posting clips, and working the back catalog. Build them as four separate profiles or mix as needed.
Everything you reach for in the first ten seconds of a stream — and every five minutes after.
Sub-menu of Apple Shortcuts. Each wedge calls an OBS hotkey or hits the OBS WebSocket interface for a specific operation.
The post-stream scramble: grab the moment, write the caption, push to three platforms before you forget.
The other half of the job — editing, scheduling, planning. Profile auto-loads outside your live window.
Wrap an OBS global hotkey or a WebSocket call inside an Apple Shortcut. Drop the Shortcut on a wedge. Now scene switches, mute toggles, and recording start/stop are one flick away. Works with OBS Studio's built-in WebSocket interface (OBS 28 and later) and with Streamlabs.
!discord, !merch, !donate, the link to the current giveaway, the URL for the next stream — copy them once and the clipboard ring keeps the last eight clips a flick away. Or wire them as text-insert wedges if you want them permanent.
Built-in six-category emoji picker with a recents ring. Useful for chat reactions, thumbnail titles, Discord posts, and the social copy you write while the stream is winding down.
Schedule a live profile that loads OBS, chat, and the soundboard during your stream window. Outside that window, the offline profile loads the editor, scheduler, and content calendar. Or switch manually if your hours are erratic.
Drop a freshly captured clip onto the DaVinci wedge to start editing. Drop the same file on the Discord wedge to share it in your community channel. Drop it on the Twitter wedge to attach it to a new post. No "Open with…" hunt.
A wedge can open another radial menu. Group all your OBS scenes under one Scenes wedge. Group chat commands under a Commands wedge. Group social-post templates under Posts. The top ring stays clean; nothing is more than two flicks deep.
Effectively yes for one hand, without the hardware cost. Bind a wedge to an Apple Shortcut that fires an OBS hotkey or hits the OBS WebSocket interface, and a flick replaces a button press. A Stream Deck still wins if you want dedicated hardware you can hit without looking — foot pedals, multiple decks, or shared physical controls — but for a single operator on a Mac, Swik covers the same ground for $9 instead of $150.
Yes, via Apple Shortcuts. Either point a Shortcut at OBS's global hotkey for that scene, or have it call the OBS WebSocket interface (built into OBS 28 and later) using a Run Shell Script step with curl or websocat. Wire that Shortcut to a wedge and a flick switches the scene.
Yes, by default. Swik's overlay is a standard macOS window-layer, so it appears in screen captures unless you exclude it. In OBS, use a Display Capture with a window-cropping filter or capture the specific app windows you want on stream instead of the full display. Some streamers leave it visible on purpose so chat can see what they hit.
Yes. Swik's context-aware profiles switch based on time of day, Wi-Fi network, or external display. Schedule your stream window for the live profile (OBS, chat, soundboard). Outside that window, the offline profile loads (editor, scheduler, content calendar). Or switch manually between sessions.
Launch anything. One gesture. Free for five wedges, $9 one-time for unlimited. Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
