Kick clip maker and clipper

This Kick clip maker works from the replay. Paste a Kick VOD link and we watch the whole stream, pick the moments worth posting and send them back as vertical clips with captions burned in. If you came looking for a Kick clipper that does the searching as well as the cutting, this is it.

Links are on paid plans, from $19 a month, and every paid plan starts with a 7-day free trial and no card. Uploading a file you already have is free: 60 minutes of source a month, up to 9 clips.

Kick's clip button or a clip maker?

Kick's own tool is good at one job. While you watch a stream or a VOD, you press the clip icon or the C key, set a length from 10 to 180 seconds, give it a title and publish. There is a 60 second wait before you can make the next one, and the result downloads as an .mp4 (Kick's help page on clips). If you saw the moment happen, that is often all you need, and it costs nothing.

A clip maker starts from the other end: a four hour stream and no idea where the good parts are. We go through all of it, using the transcript, the faces, where the webcam sits and which moments land. Each clip then comes back framed for a phone with captions in the file. Kick's help page does not describe its tool doing either of those, so with the button you would add them yourself in an editor.

How to clip a Kick VOD

1. Step 1

   Copy the replay link

   Open the VOD on Kick and copy the address. Both forms work: kick.com/<channel>/videos/<id> and kick.com/video/<id>.

2. Step 2

   Or paste the channel

   Paste kick.com/<channel> instead and we list that channel's recent VODs so you can pick one.

3. Step 3

   Sign in and start the trial

   A free account is offered the 7-day trial at this point, because links are on paid plans. No card.

4. Step 4

   Choose how many clips

   One, three, six or as many as the stream holds. Pick a caption theme and a layout, or keep the defaults.

5. Step 5

   Wait, then download

   We pull the VOD before we cut anything, so length matters: a 91 minute Kick VOD took about 20 minutes to download when we timed one. Finished clips land in your library.

What comes back

Vertical 9:16 clips for TikTok, Reels, X and Shorts, plus 16:9 landscape versions when you ask for that format. There are two vertical layouts:

• Split puts the webcam on top and the stream below. Use it when there is a corner cam.
• Full gives one subject the whole frame, which suits IRL and just chatting.
• Captions are burned into the file, in your choice of 34 themes, and each clip gets a title.
• Most clips run under a minute. A moment that needs room can go to 90 seconds.

Frames from clips we rendered. The small viewers.gg mark is what free clips carry.

Limits to know before you paste

• The VOD has to still exist. Kick keeps replays for 7 days on non-verified channels and up to 30 days on verified ones, and it caps how many a channel can store (Kick's page on VODs).
• It has to be a public VOD. A link to a clip someone already made is not accepted, and we do not promise clips from a stream that is still live.
• Minutes count the whole VOD. A three hour stream uses 180 minutes of your plan, however few clips come out of it.
• Length is what counts. That 91 minute VOD used 91 minutes and came to about 4 GB. Any paid plan can pull a link up to 16GB, and if a longer archive will not fit, we tell you.
• IRL is our weakest case. If the person keeps walking out of frame you can get fewer clips than you asked for, sometimes none. A run that delivers nothing gives its minutes back.

Who this suits

Kick streamers who want clips from every stream without watching it back or paying an editor. Clippers who post for a channel, if the streamer is happy with it: our terms need you to hold the rights to what you submit. If you also stream elsewhere, the Twitch clip maker runs on the same account.

It is the wrong tool if you only want the one moment you already saw, where Kick's button is quicker, or if you need clips while you are still on air.

What it costs

Kick links start on Creator at $19 a month. The 7-day trial needs no card, and if you have not added one when it ends, the subscription simply cancels. All plans in full.
