What does stream proof mean for a cheat?
A stream-proof cheat keeps its menu and overlays, such as ESP boxes, out of anything that captures your screen. You still see them on your monitor, but OBS, Streamlabs, XSplit, a Discord screen-share or a recording only show the plain game. It hides what the cheat draws, not how you play.
What stream proof hides, and what it does not
It hides the drawing: the menu, ESP boxes and lines, and any other overlay the cheat puts on your screen. Some builds go further; TZX can even hide the overlay on your own screen.
Windows itself knows the idea: since Windows 10 version 2004 a program can mark a window as excluded from capture, so it appears on the monitor and nowhere else.
It does not hide your aim or your movement. A crosshair that snaps onto heads looks the same on stream with or without an overlay. Silent aim is the setting meant for that, because it lands hits without visibly moving your crosshair. And viewers still report what they see you do.

How to check it before you go live
- Read what the product coversStream proof is not one standard. The product pages name the tools they cover, and the lists differ: OBS, Streamlabs, XSplit, Discord or Windows capture.
- Record a private testStart a recording in the tool you stream with, open the menu and turn on ESP, then watch the recording back.
- Check every capture you runA Discord screen-share and an OBS stream are separate captures. Test the ones you actually use.
What the other words on a product page mean, from aimbot to silent aim, is explained on the home page.
