SPLIT-FLAP DISPLAYS FOR CREATORS & STREAMERS
Put your numbers on a board that flips subscriber milestones, launch countdowns, and live stats into satisfying split-flap motion. Creators and streamers run flaps.tv in a browser on any screen or capture source — fork a stats template, wire it to your APIs, and watch the counters flip in real time on stream.
A live GitHub repo board that flips stars, forks, and open-issue counts plus the latest release tag for facebook/react, each fed by the public GitHub API. Engineering teams put it on the office TV to watch a release land or a star milestone tick past. Swap two URLs to track your own repository instead.
A launch war-room board with a countdown to the ship date, a launch-readiness progress bar sitting at 82%, and a status ticker flipping through press queued, email ready, and demo room live. Startup teams run it on the office TV through the final weeks so everyone works against the same clock. Change the target date once and the tension takes care of itself.
A live GitHub star counter that reads the public repository API and flips stargazer count, fork count, and the latest release tag — preloaded with vercel/next.js as the example. Point the three data widgets at your own repo URL and the board becomes a real-time traction display for dev offices, launch livestreams, and conference booths.
An engineering status board that shows live GitHub status, open incident count, deploy notes, and the on-call rotation on an office TV. It ships already wired to the GitHub status API, alongside a zero-incident counter, a deploy ticker ("production healthy", "release window 3pm"), and primary/secondary on-call names. Point the data widget at your own status page and the board becomes your team's heads-up display.
A retirement countdown clock that flips the days until the last working day beside an 83% "plan" progress bar and a ticker of send-off items like booking the trip and finishing the handoff. Teams run it in the office for a colleague's final stretch, or retirees keep it at home. Fork it and set the real retirement date.
A sobriety counter board that flips a green day count — 142 in the template — under the words "one day at a time," with a progress bar tracking the road to year one. It works as a private home display or a shared board in a recovery center common room. Edit the streak, goal, and encouragement lines after forking.
A split-flap baby countdown board that flips the days remaining until an August due date next to a purple progress bar showing how ready you are. It suits a nursery wall, family room TV, or baby shower photo backdrop, with a "bags packed and ready" line underneath. Fork it and set your own due date in seconds.
A live-studio board with a next-show countdown cycling 9am, 1pm, and 6pm slots, a red 12.8k live-viewer counter, and a lower-third ticker rotating subscribe prompts, Q&A cues, and sponsor mentions. Streamers frame it in the background of the shot or mount it in the control room as an on-air status wall the whole crew can read at a glance.
A creator milestone board pairing a 48.2k follower counter with a goal progress bar sitting at 96%, above a thank-you ticker plugging Friday's video and the next stream. Creators put it behind them on camera or on the studio wall so the community watches the counter close in on the goal. The number, the goal bar, and every message edit in the fork.
An executive daily briefing board that combines the current time, local weather, month-to-date revenue, and a rotating focus list on one office TV. Defaults show a live clock, New York weather, $812k MTD, and a ticker cycling through priorities like renewals, hiring, and launch readiness. A leader gets the day's picture in one glance instead of five dashboards.
Live stats boards for streams, studios, and launches
Numbers that move are content, and the split-flap makes the movement visible: point a counter widget at a JSON endpoint for your channel stats — a platform API, a stats aggregator, or a small script you host — and the digits roll the moment a subscriber lands, an on-screen event your chat reacts to in real time. GitHub stars, newsletter signups, and store sales feed the same way. Live sources are a Business-plan feature; manually updated counters run on any paid plan.
Placement decides the layout. A shelf TV behind you needs one giant counter row and a short label to survive webcam compression; a full-screen OBS browser source affords a subscriber counter, a follower row, and a goal progress bar together. It lives at a URL, so adding it to a stream is just a browser source — no plugin. Fork a creator template, then set flap colors and type to your brand before it starts showing up in clips and thumbnails.
Boards worth building: a milestone counter paired with a progress bar targeting the next round number; a launch board rotating a countdown scene with a preorders counter; a studio wall board mixing local time, today's upload schedule, and live stats; and a community goal board for a subathon or charity push. Scenes rotate on their own durations through a long stream, and every layout is free to build — the plan only starts when the board goes live.

Can the board pull live stats from platforms like GitHub or my channel?
Yes — connect any JSON or API source and flaps.tv flips stars, subs, or follower counts in real time, ready to drop into your stream layout.
How do I add the flipping counter as an overlay in my stream?
Run the board as a browser source in OBS or any capture, since it lives at a URL — no plugin or hardware, just fork a template and point your scene at it.
Can I match the board's flaps to my brand colors and fonts?
Fork a template and customize the type, size, and colors so the split-flap counter looks like part of your channel, not a generic widget.
Is there a free way to try a stats board?
Yes — building is free, so you can fork a template, set your layout, and preview the counters before paying. A plan is only needed to run it live: Starter is $8/mo for one display, and live platform APIs come with Business.
Can the board change for launch week automatically?
Yes. Keep a day-to-day scene with your counters, add a countdown scene targeting the drop, and rotate them on durations. On launch day, make the countdown the only scene — one dashboard edit that pushes to the screen or overlay instantly.
