Paste a Twitch VOD link and download its entire chat replay as a timestamped text file, right in your browser. No account, nothing to install — keep the conversation before the VOD expires.

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.
