vodfetch is a free Twitch stream downloader that captures a live broadcast to an MP4 file as it airs, and also downloads the past-broadcast VOD once the stream ends. Paste the channel URL (twitch.tv/name) while the streamer is live, start recording, and stop whenever you like. There is no account and no software — and if you miss the live window, you can still download the VOD before Twitch deletes it.
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.

Frequently asked questions
How do I download a live Twitch stream?
Paste the channel URL (twitch.tv/name) while the streamer is live, click Analyze, and start recording — vodfetch captures the stream to MP4 until it ends or you stop.
Can I download a Twitch stream after it ends?
Yes — once the stream ends it becomes a VOD; paste the VOD link and download it before Twitch deletes it (after 7 to 60 days).
Do I need OBS to record a Twitch stream?
No. vodfetch records the stream in your browser without OBS or any software — though OBS is still great for recording your own captures at any settings.
Is recording a Twitch stream free?
Yes — it is completely free, with no account and no watermark.

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.
