What is EmbedAvatar?
EmbedAvatar is a free browser tool for PNGtubers, the simplest form of VTubing: your avatar opens its mouth when you speak and runs in OBS Studio as a browser source – no download, no ads, no subscription. You build a character from 5 free styles or upload your own images, add one link to OBS and set a threshold so that background noise doesn't set it off. Streamlabs Desktop and Meld Studio work too.
In three steps
How it works
Build a character
Click one together in the character builder or upload your own images. Idle, talking and blinking are created automatically.
Link in OBS
Copy the overlay link or drag it straight into OBS. Every overlay has its own secret link – also as a pop-out window.
Set the threshold
Slide the yellow handle above the noise. Below it the avatar stays quiet, so background noise does not set it off.
Why EmbedAvatar
Made for OBS
Voice activation via obs-websocket. The audio level stays on your PC.
Streamlabs & Meld too
A control page in your browser tells the overlay when you speak – only “speaking/silent” is transmitted.
Live editing
Changes in the editor appear in OBS within a second, without reloading the source.
Free and private
No ads, no trackers, no cookie banner. Your audio never leaves your device.
Who is it for?
- Streamers without a facecam who still want a face on stream – a VTuber without a webcam.
- Anyone who wants to stay anonymous – the avatar shows up instead of you.
- Older PCs and laptops: there is no face tracking and no extra program; the overlay only swaps images.
- A quick start: account, avatar and OBS link take a few minutes, without drawing or rigging.
If your avatar should follow your head and facial expressions, you need a VTuber program with face tracking instead. How to become a VTuber without a camera compares the three ways, and What is a PNGtuber? explains how PNGtubers differ from other VTubers.
Step-by-step guides
Rather without any server?
There is also a local version: editor and overlay as a ZIP package that runs directly in OBS without an account and without an internet connection. Its only connection is to obs-websocket on your own PC.
