I got tired of wrestling with three different cam platform APIs and rate limits just to keep a simple "Live Now" grid fresh on my sites, so I built a lightweight, cross-platform widget that does it automatically.
It pulls real-time active performers from Chaturbate, Stripchat, and Streamate, interleaves the top models, and updates the data every 2 minutes.

I've opened it up so anyone can embed it on their tube, review blog, or link tree. It's completely free, requires absolutely no API keys, and has zero external CSS dependencies (it injects its own scoped dark-theme styles so it won't break your site's layout).

What it does:
* Auto-updates every 2 minutes.
* Mixes models from CB, SC, and SM (with platform badges).
* Fully responsive (adapts to sidebars or full-width under-video slots).
* Lazy-loads thumbnails to protect your page speed.

How to use it:
Just drop this single line of code wherever you want the grid to appear on your site:

You can change the data-count attribute to 2, 4, 6, or 8 depending on how much space you have.

Bonus: Model Earnings Calculator
If you run a cam studio site or a "model resource/training" blog, I also built a dynamic Earnings Calculator based on real payout data (it actually accounts for multi-streaming multipliers based on hours worked). It's great interactive content for recruiting.

You can grab the raw HTML embed code for the calculator here (just scroll to the bottom):

I'm hosting the polling engine and serving the JS via Cloudflare edge caching, so it won't add any load or latency to your servers.

Let me know if you run into any issues or have feature requests (like adding variables to filter by specific tags or genders). Enjoy!
