# vAudioLink documentation

> Low-latency remote collaboration tools that live inside OBS Studio.

vAudioLink helps two creators collaborate remotely without replacing their existing OBS setup. Install the product you need, open its dock, and connect through an expiring guest key.

## What stays under your control

* Each product is installed as its own OBS dock and plugin.
* The docks own their collaboration sources and outputs.
* vAudioLink does not replace your OBS stream service, stream key, recording settings, or global audio settings.
* Hosted relays forward native media without transcoding it.
* A guest can join with a key and does not need a vAudioLink account.

<Note>
  vAudioLink is built for 64-bit OBS Studio 30 and 31 on Windows. Restart OBS after installing or updating a plugin.
