Roll for Real
Real dice. Real rolls. Sent to your online table.
Live now: Foundry VTT (beta) and Discord, including the same channel as Avrae. In Foundry, RollSight Replay can attach a short clip of the roll to chat (paid tiers and beta). Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo, and D&D Beyond are planned next.
You supply the camera. Phone, USB webcam, a desk document camera such as the IPEVO V4K, or our free 3D-print Dragon Rig files all work.
Keep your favorite dice. No special dice to buy. The more people play, the better recognition gets for everyone.
Windows and Mac app with a free account that does not expire. Approved beta testers unlock every Champion feature while we test Foundry. Paid plans and trials: see pricing.

How it works
Three steps: aim a camera, roll, and let your online group see the same numbers you do at the desk.
Step 1
Point a camera at your dice tray
Phone, webcam, document camera (e.g. IPEVO V4K), or DIY Dragon Rig. You bring the camera; many options work. No hardware purchase from us required.
Step 2
RollSight reads the tray
The app watches the camera feed and reads each roll as it happens. Train your own dice once, then play.
Step 3
Your table sees the result
RollSight sends each read roll to Foundry VTT (beta) or Discord today. More virtual tabletops are on the way.
Pick a camera that fits your desk
RollSight is software only: you choose the camera. Many players use a document camera, a good webcam, a phone on a stand, or our free Dragon Rig print. Mix and match until the view of your tray is steady and bright.
IPEVO V4K Document Camera
Plug-in USB document camera with a crisp top-down view, solid in dim rooms, and no driver drama on Mac or Windows. This is the off-the-shelf setup we recommend most often.
Dragon Rig (DIY)
Free files on Printables: print the dragon body, add a small USB camera and optional screen from our parts list, and you get a tray plus a built-in spot for results. Use any dice you like.

Won't be great
- Low-resolution or very old webcams
Below 720p or poor low-light performance
- Built-in laptop cameras
Usually fixed angle and too far from the tray
- Poor lighting conditions
Dim or uneven light hurts recognition; add a lamp or improve room lighting for best results.

Why players use RollSight
Real dice, clear setup choices, and honest status on which games we connect to today versus next.
Your dice, your table
Use the sets you already own. Train them once and RollSight reads faces from the tray. No branded or RFID dice required.
Shows up in your game
Foundry VTT (beta) and Discord are live today, including posting next to Avrae in the same channel. Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo, and D&D Beyond are on the roadmap.
RollSight Replay
Save a short clip of the dice leaving your hand and landing on the tray. In Foundry, open the collapsible replay under the roll so the table can see what the camera saw. Champion, Party, and beta include cloud storage for replays.
See how your dice behave
Wonder if a die is streaky or fair? RollSight charts results over time against what you would expect from fair dice.
One link for your rolls
Share a personal page with stats from one night or your lifetime rolls so friends can see how the dice treated you.
A photo library that grows
Thousands of community photos of dice faces help recognition. When you train, you help the next person with a similar set.
Stream-ready camera
The same overhead feed you use for reading dice can drop straight into OBS and other streaming tools.
Gets smarter as you play
Quick corrections teach the app your lighting and dice. Your fixes feed the shared library so everyone benefits.
Connect to the game your group uses
Foundry and Discord are shipping today. Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo, and D&D Beyond are next in line.

Rolls without retyping
Once you connect a game, RollSight watches the tray and pushes each result for you. Roll at the desk and let the app handle the busy work so the table stays in sync.
Show the tray on stream
The same overhead feed that reads dice can feed Twitch, YouTube, or any tool that accepts a webcam. Our OBS Studio guide walks through the usual scene setup.
View Streaming GuideEveryone makes it better
Each time you fix a misread or train a new set, the whole community gets a little sharper. More tables mean smarter reads for the next person with similar dice.
Dice photos in the library
Crowdsourced from real tables
Rolls read so far
Climbing as more groups play
Contribute
Save photos of your dice faces so others can start from your work instead of from zero.
Train
Walk through a short training flow so the app learns odd fonts, symbols, or custom molds you care about.
Benefit
Your corrections ripple outward: fewer double-takes at the table and faster setup for the next player with a lookalike set.
One shared library of dice faces
Think of it as a photo album every player adds to. Your sessions grow the library, and the library makes the next session faster for you and for anyone rolling similar dice.
Built together. Your training time pays forward.
