Skip to main contentSquadsSpace provides browser-based overlays you can add to OBS, Streamlabs, or any streaming software. Your stream gets a broadcast-ready scoreboard that updates in real-time as you enter scores.
Getting Your Overlay URL
- Open your tournament or scrim
- Go to Overlay Settings
- Copy the overlay URL
This URL is a browser page that displays your live standings, kill counts, and match results. It’s designed to be used as a browser source in streaming software.
Adding to OBS
- In OBS, click + under Sources
- Select Browser
- Paste your overlay URL
- Set the width and height to match your stream layout (recommended: 1920×1080 for full-screen, or smaller for a sidebar overlay)
- Click OK
The overlay is now part of your stream. It will update automatically whenever you enter or update scores on SquadsSpace.
Adding to Streamlabs
- In Streamlabs, add a new Browser Source
- Paste the overlay URL
- Adjust size and position
- Done — same live-updating behavior
How Real-Time Updates Work
When you enter scores on SquadsSpace — from your phone, laptop, or any device — the overlay detects the change and updates automatically. There’s no refresh needed.
Workflow:
- Match ends
- You open SquadsSpace on your phone
- Enter kills and placement for each team
- Your stream’s overlay updates live — viewers see the leaderboard change in real-time
This means you can enter scores on your phone while the stream runs on your laptop. No alt-tabbing. No manual graphic editing.
Overlay Design
The overlay is designed to match professional esports broadcast aesthetics. It shows:
- Team standings with points
- Kill counts
- Match-by-match results
- Clean typography and colors optimized for stream readability

Tips
- Test before going live — add the overlay to OBS and enter a few test scores to see how it looks on your stream
- Position wisely — place the overlay where it won’t cover important gameplay. A sidebar or bottom bar works well
- Use your phone — enter scores from your phone while the stream runs on your laptop. The overlay updates automatically
- Multiple monitors help — if you have two screens, keep SquadsSpace open on one and your stream on the other
