StreamStash is a self-hosted Windows desktop app that archives social media to your own drives. Point it at the creators you follow across 9 platforms (TikTok, X/Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Telegram, Reddit, Snapchat Spotlight, XenForo forums, and web album hosts) and it automatically downloads their new posts, live streams, stories, and slideshows the moment they go up. One app replaces a dozen separate downloaders and cron jobs. Built for data hoarders, researchers, and archivists who want a complete local copy, not a cloud account. Everything runs on your machine: no upload, no third-party processing, no telemetry, no subscription. Highlights: - Monitor creators with per-feed schedules from 30 minutes to 24 hours - Auto-record TikTok Lives at full quality with NVENC acceleration, then replay them in-app with captured chat, gifts, and a full stream summary - Auto-clip TikTok Live highlights ranked by chat activity and gift bursts - AI semantic search across your whole archive (CLIP, runs locally on your GPU, no API keys) - Perceptual-hash deduplication with Strict, Balanced, and Aggressive presets - Cross-platform identity matching and bio-link aggregator resolution (linktr.ee, beacons.ai, allmylinks) - Engagement analytics on every tier: top performers, posting-cadence heatmaps, per-post history - Multi-drive storage, smart renaming, built-in media player, Discord webhook alerts Free tier: TikTok, X, and YouTube with no expiry, no watermark, and unlimited Quick Download (5 feeds, 1 live monitor). Personal (£20 one-time) adds Instagram and Telegram with 15 feeds. Power (£40 one-time) unlocks all 9 platforms with unlimited feeds, AI search, and HD TikTok downloads. One-time payment.
