Can't you describe any software as 'just some tools'? If the tools do what you want and achieve the same things as OBS then isn't that what you want?
It's a bit of both. It can configure itself to be a virtual camera (similar to OBS), which could then be consumed by OBS. It also has built in features for directly streaming to twitch/youtube/etc and skipping OBS entirely. Likely an embrace, extend, and extinguish strategy on their part.

This is not true lol
Sorry, you're correct. The stream to twitch/youtube/etc is part of Nvidia's Geforce experience, which Nvidia Broadcast can tie into.
> It can configure itself to be a virtual camera (similar to OBS) [...]
OBS can be used as a virtual camera? I assume not out of the box but only with some third party software/plugin, right?
>NVIDIA Broadcast is a universal plugin that works with most popular live streaming, voice chat and video conferencing apps. It’s supported on any NVIDIA GeForce RTX, TITAN RTX or Quadro RTX GPU, using their dedicated Tensor Core AI processors to help the app’s AI networks run in real-time, right alongside your games.
