Superchat-mouse-v1.00 -
Symptoms: The mouse cursor stutters when chat exceeds 500 viewers.
Fix: Reduce the polling rate from 1000Hz to 500Hz. v1.00 prioritizes data parsing over pointer accuracy. In the GUI, go to Settings > HID > Polling Interval and set to 2ms.
By holding Right Click and tapping Side Button 4, users can activate "Raid Mode." This sends a pre-written command into chat every 2 seconds (e.g., "GO FOLLOW @TARGETSTREAMER"). Because v1.00 handles the timing via hardware interrupts, this does not violate Twitch's macro rules regarding "automated spam" (as each action is manually triggered by a mouse movement).
SuperChat-mouse-v1.00 is a lightweight utility designed to bridge the gap between audience interaction and desktop control. In the evolving landscape of "Twitch Plays" style content, this tool serves as a fundamental interpreter, translating specific chat commands or donation triggers into physical mouse movements and clicks on the host machine. Version 1.00 marks the initial public stable release, focusing on low-latency execution and basic security protocols. SuperChat-mouse-v1.00
No other mouse on the market specifically targets Super Chat integration. However, we can compare the SuperChat-mouse-v1.00 to general-purpose "stream decks" and macro mice.
vs. Elgato Stream Deck + Standard Mouse
A Stream Deck is powerful but requires you to take your hand off the mouse. The SuperChat-mouse-v1.00 keeps all donation controls under your fingertips. However, the Stream Deck offers more buttons and a visual display. Verdict: The mouse is better for fast-paced gaming; the Stream Deck is better for scene switching.

vs. Razer Naga with Hypershift
The Naga has 12 side buttons, which can be macro-mapped to chat responses. But it lacks the native API integration. You would need third-party software like AutoHotkey or Streamer.bot, adding complexity and latency. Verdict: The SuperChat-mouse-v1.00 wins on ease of setup and latency.
vs. Logitech G502 Lightspeed
The G502 is a superior general-purpose mouse with better sensor specs (Hero 25K). But for donation handling, it’s not even a contest. The v1.00’s specific feature set makes it the only choice for Super Chat-focused streamers. In the GUI, go to Settings > HID
A hardware reviewer is live soldering a custom keyboard. Their hands are occupied with tools. A generous viewer sends a $50 Super Chat asking a question. The streamer cannot type. But with the SuperChat-mouse-v1.00, a simple tilt of the mouse triggers a pre-recorded voice response: "Great question – check the description link for my parts list." The stream continues uninterrupted.
