PUBLIC ROADMAP

Building the all-in-one
streaming bot.

Aetheris is growing beyond song requests into a desktop-first automation, moderation and creator platform — built for streamers, by streamers. This roadmap tracks direction and progress, not hard deadlines.

Shipped / foundation existsIn progress / next upPlannedLater

CURRENT FOUNDATION

Aetheris v1.4.3

The current release is the launchpad for the larger bot platform.
STABLE RELEASE

v1.4.3 shipped

Cloud Twitch connectivity, Spotify and YTMD playback, OBS overlays, backups, updates, requested-song logging and the existing command/request systems are already in place.

100% • Released
IMMEDIATE PRIORITY

Command + event foundation

The next major step is a reusable command, permission and event architecture that can power Twitch now and other platforms later.

Foundation exists • Expansion next
PRODUCT VISION

One creator control center

Commands, moderation, spam defense, music, OBS, automation, loyalty, alerts, overlays, giveaways, Discord and eventually multi-platform support.

Long-term buildout

ROADMAP 01

Twitch Bot Platform

The primary roadmap. Build the core deeply on Twitch first, then reuse it everywhere.

~20% foundation

Bot Core

Turn the existing command/request foundation into a full command platform.

  • Custom commands & aliases

  • Per-user & global cooldowns
  • Timers
  • Randomized responses
  • Variables
  • Command test / preview mode
  • Chat logging
  • Imported command settings
  • User, follower, sub, VIP, mod & broadcaster permissions
  • Conditions & delayed responses
  • Command chains, API calls & webhooks

Example: !shoutout @user could send chat, trigger OBS, play a sound and update a shoutout overlay.

  • First-time chatter rules

01PLANNED MVP
Not started

TikTok Companion MVP

Connection settings, account/status display, supported TikTok LIVE connection, incoming chat, basic commands and responses, diagnostics, logging and platform identification. Official APIs, approved access or supported connectors are preferred over brittle scraping.

02PLANNED

TikTok Events

Follows, likes, shares, gifts, viewer joins, subscribers, TikTok-specific alerts and cooldowns, platform badges and a unified chat display.

03PLANNED

TikTok Automation

TikTok event triggers, OBS actions, gift thank-yous, cross-platform announcements, moderation filters, shared song requests, platform permissions and Twitch ↔ TikTok event bridges.

Example: a TikTok gift could thank the viewer, announce on Twitch, trigger OBS, play a sound and award loyalty points.

04LATER

Vertical Creator Tools

9:16 OBS presets, TikTok-safe alerts, portrait chat, vertical scenes and goals, Twitch/TikTok layout switching, dual-layout previews and automatic overlay resizing — with presets for Twitch 16:9, TikTok 9:16, YouTube vertical live and dual-stream layouts.

SHARED FOUNDATION

One Aetheris Core. Multiple platforms.

Twitch and TikTok stay separate on the surface while sharing the systems underneath.

Platform adapters expose common events such as message, follow, subscription, gift, raid, like, share, streamStarted and streamEnded. The automation engine can respond without caring which platform produced the event.

BUILD ORDER

Recommended development progression

The goal is to build the reusable foundation once instead of bolting every feature directly onto the app.
01Stabilize v1.4.3Current release foundation
02Document the Twitch bot roadmapPublic roadmap established
03Command + permission foundationCore architecture
04Timers, variables, cooldowns + basic moderation
05Event/action automation engine
06Spam protection + raid defense
07Loyalty, giveaways, alerts + overlays
08TikTok MVP development
09TikTok connection, chat + commands
10TikTok events after MVP reliability
11Connect platforms through shared automation
12Advanced multi-platform features
THE RULE

Foundation before feature count.

The immediate priority isn't to build everything at once. A reliable command-and-event engine comes first so Twitch can grow now and TikTok can join later without rebuilding Aetheris from scratch.
