The basics

What is Clipsie?

Clipsie is an automated clipping tool that watches your live Twitch chat, detects the moments that pop off, and turns them into vertical short-form videos for YouTube Shorts and TikTok, captioned, titled, and posted for you. Past streams work too: hand it a VOD link from Twitch, Kick or YouTube and it clips the whole recording.

How does Clipsie find clip-worthy moments?

Clipsie monitors your Twitch chat in real time and learns your channel’s normal rhythm. When chat erupts past its baseline, a two-stage AI scores the moment for real viral potential before it clips it. On paid plans a stream that ends short of your daily target gets a second look afterwards: Clipsie goes through the recording and finds moments from what was said and shown, so a quiet chat still gets clips.

Does Clipsie work with any Twitch channel?

It works on your own channel, or on another streamer’s channel if they have given you permission to clip and post their content. Clipsie handles gaming, IRL and Just Chatting alike and adapts to each channel’s own chat baseline. Technically it needs clips turned on in the channel’s Twitch settings; legally you need the right to publish what you clip (see our Terms).

Do I have to edit the clips myself?

No. Clipsie reframes each moment to vertical 9:16 with face-aware cropping, adds readable karaoke captions and an AI-written title, and schedules the upload with no manual editing. On every paid plan an AI editor also re-cuts each clip that posts automatically.

What is the Humanized AI Clipper?

Clipsie’s second product, for clips that tell a story. It watches the whole stream or VOD, finds the story around a moment (the setup, the reasoning, the guess, the reveal and the reaction) and cuts it the way a human editor would. It runs fully automatically after every stream, or on a past stream you order it for. It comes in three levels: Humanized AI Clipper, our best AI at every step and the closest to a human editor; Humanized Edit, where our best AI edits and a faster AI finds the moments; and Humanized Lite, fast AIs at every step for the lowest price. Runs are paid with credits. How it works.

Setting it up

What do I need to connect?

Twitch, so Clipsie can read the chat and the stream; the channel you want watched; and at least one destination, YouTube or TikTok. Each is connected on that platform’s own sign-in screen, and Clipsie never sees your password.

Which platforms does Clipsie post to?

Clipsie publishes automatically to YouTube Shorts and TikTok. You connect your accounts once and it handles the uploads, platform-ready titles, and hashtags for each.

Can I approve clips before they go out?

Yes. Per channel you choose the review queue, where clips wait for you to watch, approve or discard and to edit the title or TikTok privacy first, or auto-post, where they go out on their own. You can switch at any time.

Can Clipsie clip a stream that already happened?

Yes. An import hands Clipsie a past stream, a VOD, by link: Twitch, Kick and YouTube all work. It works through the whole recording instead of watching live. Imports are part of every paid plan and are not on the free plan. A VOD has to belong to the channel you import it for, and each VOD can be run once a day.

Plans and billing

How much does Clipsie cost?

Clipsie is free to start: pick a chat word (many pick !clip), type it while you stream, and Clipsie turns that moment into a finished short, 5 a month, no card needed. Paid plans watch every stream for you and start at 9 EUR a month per channel (VAT included) with a 7-day trial. The Humanized AI Clipper plans, which add credits for clips edited almost like a human, start at 29 EUR a month. See the full ladder.

How many clips will I get?

Up to 60 clips a month on Starter, 150 on Creator and 250 on Studio, found, cut and posted fully automatically, live clips and clips from your past streams together. Clipsie also searches up to 60 hours of past streams a month on Starter, 100 on Creator and 150 on Studio. Fewer streaming days, or a quiet stream with nothing worth clipping, mean fewer clips; Clipsie never pads the count with weak ones. Compare the plans.

What exactly is free?

5 finished clips a month, triggered by a chat word you choose yourself and posted to your connected accounts, with no card. Your first stream is on us: Clipsie watches it end to end and finds up to 2 moments by itself, so you can judge the automatic detection before paying for it.

How does the trial work?

The Clipsie autopilot plans start with a 7-day trial. A card is needed so clipping does not stop mid-stream on the day the trial converts; the first charge is on day 8. One trial per customer. The Humanized plans have no trial, because their credits are spent on real runs; instead your first Humanized AI Clipper run is on us in your first paid month.

How do credits work?

Credits pay for Humanized AI Clipper runs. A run costs what the AI really uses for it, the search plus each clip it delivers; before every run you see its typical price and its maximum, and it never costs more than that maximum. A clip that fails costs nothing, and a run that finds no clip is refunded completely. A Humanized plan adds credits every month; packs from 10 EUR are one-time, with no subscription. Credits belong to your account, carry over from month to month and expire 12 months after purchase. On a Clipsie autopilot plan you can also let credits keep the autopilot going past its monthly limit: off until you switch it on. Rates and packs.

What happens if I add a second channel?

Paid plans bill per channel, so each additional Twitch channel on the same account is billed at your plan’s channel rate. Channel rates.

How do I cancel?

The Account tab opens the billing portal, where you can change the card, download invoices, switch plans or cancel. A paid plan keeps access until the end of the period you already paid for; during a trial, cancelling ends the trial right away.

When something looks wrong

A stream produced no clips. Why?

Usually one of: the channel is paused, Twitch got disconnected, you are on the free plan and your clip word was never set or never typed, or this month’s free clips are used up. A quiet chat alone is not the reason on a paid plan: when a stream of 30 minutes or more ends short of your daily target, Clipsie goes through its recording afterwards and picks moments from what was said and shown, no chat reaction needed. If that pass comes back empty too, the VOD could not be read (subscriber-only VODs, for example; the dashboard says so) or the stream had nothing worth posting. Full troubleshooting.

A clip was made but never posted.

Check the Review tab, since clips wait there in review mode; check that YouTube and TikTok are still connected, since a dropped connection holds the clip; and in auto-post mode with a schedule, the clip may simply be waiting for its posting window. Full troubleshooting.

Can I delete my account and my data?

Yes, from the Account tab. It disconnects Twitch, YouTube and TikTok immediately, stops all clipping, and deletes your account, clips, tokens and settings within 30 days. Clips already posted to your platforms stay there; they are yours. Privacy Policy.

Still wondering

Easier to just try it.

Free to start, no card needed. Connect Twitch, pick your clip word, type it in chat, and see what comes back.
