vodfetch is a free Twitch chat downloader that exports the complete chat replay of any VOD as a plain-text file, with every message timestamped and named. Editors use it to find the exact moments viewers reacted; streamers keep it as a moderation record or a memory. Because Twitch deletes VODs (and their chat) after 7 to 60 days, exporting the chat is the only way to keep it long-term — and you can download the video as MP4 in the same place.
Why use this Twitch video downloader
VODs, clips & live
One tool for every Twitch format: past broadcasts, highlights, clips and live stream recordings.
Blazing fast
Parallel segment downloading saturates your connection and rebuilds the video in seconds, with automatic retries on errors.
Private by design
No sign-up and no tracking. The download runs in your browser; video is only relayed through a stateless proxy to satisfy browser security — nothing is stored.
No account, no ads
No Twitch login, no sign-up, no paywall and no ads. Just paste a link and download.
MP4 + quality choice
Clean MP4 output ready for any player or editor, plus audio-only export and exact quality selection.

Why use — and share — vodfetch? 👋
Real talk: vodfetch is built by one person — a dad of two with a wife, a day job, and a slightly broken sense of free time — trying to make a little extra on the side. No investors, no growth team, no dark patterns. Just me and a lot of coffee.
So here's the honest deal: the tool is free and always will be. A couple of small, non-annoying ads keep the lights on — that's it. No spam, no pop-ups, no fake 'Download' buttons, no account, no watermark. And it's all open-source, so you can check I'm not up to anything shady.
- 100% free — no trial, no paywall, no 'premium' upsell
- Just a couple of tiny ads — no spam, no pop-ups, no malware
- No account, no install, no watermark, ever
- Open-source — audit it, fork it, trust it
- Made by a real human who reads every bug report (hi 👋)
A tiny ask, and a big thank-you ❤️
If vodfetch saved a clip before it vanished, the kindest thing you can do costs nothing: send it to one friend who streams, drop a star on GitHub, or paste the link in your Discord. That word-of-mouth is honestly the whole marketing budget. Thank you — really.
