Stop manually updating overlays and titles mid-flight. AvioDeck is a web-based platform that automates your stream setup — so you can focus on flying.
I’m Kevin, known as PusInnBoots on Twitch. I had the chance to try AvioDeck early, and it impressed me right away.
Two features stand out.
First, the Twitch and Discord integration. You can connect a bot to your Discord so your community sees your flights live. It’s easy to set up and works smoothly.
Second, the pilot briefing tools. AvioDeck gives complete details on ATC coverage for your departure and arrival airports. The newest update adds full VATSIM integration, letting you search callsigns, view pilot profiles, and check who’s active on each ATC position.
For streamers, AvioDeck is especially valuable. It includes clean streaming overlays that display flight details for your viewers and supports Twitch title updates in real time as your flight progresses.
AvioDeck is a must-have for flight sim fans. It’s reliable, easy to use, and adds real value to every flight.
AvioDeck is a web-based streaming toolkit designed for flight sim content creators. Import your SimBrief flight plan once, and AvioDeck automatically updates your OBS overlays, Twitch titles, and Discord notifications throughout your flight.
Connect your SimBrief and VATSIM accounts. Authorize Twitch for stream title automation. Link your Discord server with our bot. Choose your overlay template and customize colors, shadows, and borders to match your stream. Configure which events trigger notifications. Set it up once, then forget about it.
Import from VATSIM or SimBrief on the fly whenever you need to. Or let AvioDeck do it automatically in the background on a schedule. Adding another flight to your stream? File it on VATSIM or generate it on SimBrief and AvioDeck adds it automatically.
Once configured, AvioDeck runs hands-off. Launch OBS and your current flight is already in your overlay. Discord posts flight updates automatically. Twitch titles refresh every minute based on your flight phase. You focus on flying — AvioDeck handles the rest.
Your stream runs itself.
You just fly.
Stop juggling SimBrief tabs, Discord posts, and Twitch settings while you're trying to fly. AvioDeck handles all of it automatically — import once, and everything updates in real-time throughout your flight.
Keep your community informed with auto-updating boards — like airport departure screens, but for your Discord.
Live-updating flight status boards pinned in your Discord. Shows all your upcoming flights with real-time status updates (Boarding, En Route, Arrived) — just like airport screens.
Community-driven route voting board. Viewers suggest routes via /suggestroute, upvote with /upvoteroute, and you approve ideas in 1 click.
💡 Information boards are always visible in Discord — not just one-time notifications.
Choose from multiple overlay styles, customize every color to match your brand, and watch them update automatically with your flight data and live VATSIM tracking.

About AvioDeck
Discord: Beautiful Embeds That Look Professional
Discord commands respond with rich embeds showing live maps, weather data, and interactive buttons — no configuration needed. Your server looks like you hired a full-time developer, but it's just AvioDeck working behind the scenes.
Create unlimited custom commands and automated messages — powered by 400+ live data points from your flight, stream, and network.
No more typing updates while you're trying to fly. AvioDeck pushes real-time flight phase changes directly to your Twitch chat. Your community stays informed, you stay focused.
Build your own !commands with any trigger word you want. Use template placeholders to inject live flight data, route info, weather, altitude, speed — anything.
Automatically respond to viewer messages based on keywords. When someone asks "what plane?", AvioDeck answers instantly with your current aircraft, livery, and flight phase.
The first flight sim streaming tool to bring your community onboard. Chatters can check in for your flight, get assigned real seats on a virtual A350-900, and see who they're sitting next to. It's interactive, it's immersive, and it's never been done before.
Boost community engagement. Viewers aren't just watching anymore — they're part of the flight. Perfect for building chat interaction during cruise or long-haul streams.
Set it up once, then fly. Import your plan and everything updates automatically throughout your flight.
Connect your SimBrief or VATSIM flight plan. AvioDeck pulls all the data it needs.

Everything you need to know about AvioDeck
AvioDeck is a streamer‑first automation platform for flight simulation: overlays, Discord bot, Twitch chat integration, and stream titles that update themselves — plus a powerful briefing page with live VATSIM data. Works with or without VATSIM connection, with different features available in each mode.
Yes. Import your SimBrief plan and pull live VATSIM data — METAR/ATIS, controllers online, active runway helpers, and more. Your plan stays portable between tools.
Yes! AvioDeck works with or without VATSIM, though some features have different capabilities depending on your setup.
Without VATSIM connection:
With VATSIM connection:
Bottom line: AvioDeck is completely modular. Use it just for Discord notifications, chat commands, overlays, or the briefing page — whatever fits your streaming setup. Many streamers use AvioDeck alongside other flight sim platforms beyond VATSIM.
No extra apps required. AvioDeck ships with three browser‑based overlays you can drop into OBS and then customize to match your theme.
Define templates up to 2,000 characters and choose from nearly 400 live data points (phase of flight, VATSIM positioning, winds, ATC, ETA, and more). AvioDeck posts automatically when the triggers you set are met.
Yes — define your formats once; AvioDeck updates via the Twitch API as the flight progresses (within Twitch's title constraints).
Yes — AvioDeck automatically imports flight plans from both SimBrief and VATSIM. Connect your accounts once, and AvioDeck pulls in your route, times, and aircraft details without manual entry. You can also add plans manually if needed.
Not at all! While AvioDeck is built with streamers in mind, anyone can benefit from the all-in-one briefing page, live weather data, controller info, Discord bot commands, and Twitch chat features. The streaming features (overlays, title automation) are optional — use what you need.
No problem! AvioDeck's features are modular — you can use just the briefing page, or just the overlays, or just the Discord bot, or just the Twitch chat features. Mix and match based on your setup. The briefing page alone is valuable for any pilot, providing live METAR, ATIS, controllers, and runway information in one place.
AvioDeck is currently free to use. We're looking to introduce an optional support tier to help with running costs.
