          <h2>Kick throws its chat away, so the video has to speak</h2>
          <p class="section-lead">
            Kick keeps no chat replay once a stream ends. On Twitch, chat is a useful hint
            about which moments landed. On Kick there is nothing to read, so a clipper that
            leans on audience reaction has nothing to lean on.
          </p>
          <p class="section-lead">
            That is fine here, because audience data was only ever a small capped bonus.
            Everything that does the real work is measured from the video itself:

              <h3>What was said</h3>
              <p>
                A local language model reads the transcript for hooks, revelations, strong
                opinions and quotable lines.

                Loudness spikes against a rolling median, laughter-shaped bursts, and the
                silence-then-explosion shape that marks a payoff.

              <p>
                Scene cuts, motion, and sudden changes in how much of the frame a face fills:
                a lean into the camera is someone reacting.

                Kick gives the stream's category, so with Gaming / Reaction ticked a highlight
                is judged for that kind of game, and the webcam and the game share the clip in
                one of eleven layouts. <a href="gaming.html">Game stream clips</a>.

            Cloud clippers are metered: their plans count minutes, credits or clips a month, and
            Kick streams run for hours. Clips Kitty does the work on your PC, so the length of
            the stream stops mattering.

          <h2>Questions</h2>

          <h3>How do I turn a Kick VOD into TikTok clips?</h3>
          <p>
            Copy the VOD's kick.com/video link into Clips Kitty and press Generate clips. The
            VOD is downloaded to your PC, the moments worth posting are picked out, and each
            comes back as a 9:16 clip with the speaker in frame and captions burned in. Upload
            them to TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels by hand, or turn on publishing.
          </p>

          <h3>Is there a free Kick clip generator?</h3>
          <p>
            Yes. Clips Kitty is free and open source under AGPL-3.0. There is no paid tier, no
            watermark and no cap on clips, and it runs on your own Windows PC.
          </p>

          <h3>Kick has no chat replay. Does that hurt the clips?</h3>
          <p>
            No. Kick keeps no chat once a stream ends, so there is nothing to read, but chat
            was only ever a small capped bonus. The clips are picked from the video itself:
            what was said, how it sounded and how it looked.
          </p>

          <h3>Does it need my Kick account?</h3>
          <p>No. There is no login and no API key.</p>

          <h3>Can it clip a Kick stream while it is live?</h3>
          <p>No. It works on finished VODs only, by design.</p>

          <h3>Does it work for game streams on Kick?</h3>
          <p>
            Yes. Tick Gaming / Reaction: Kick gives the stream's category, the webcam and the
            game share the clip in one of eleven layouts, and in-game moments count when the
            clips are picked.
          </p>

          <h3>What PC do I need to clip Kick VODs?</h3>
          <p>
            A Windows 10 or 11 PC with 16 GB of RAM, ideally with an NVIDIA graphics card. On a
            PC too old to run the AI, the clip scoring and transcription can run through your
            own OpenRouter account instead: in our test, a 2-hour stream cost about 11 cents.
