FAQ

Questions, answered.

The things people ask before they connect a channel. If yours is not here, the help page goes deeper and the contact form reaches a person.

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.

Does Clipsie work with any Twitch channel?

Yes, on every Twitch channel that has clipping turned on. Clipsie works for any streamer or clipper across gaming, IRL, or Just Chatting, and adapts to each channel’s own chat baseline. If a channel has clips switched off in its Twitch settings, nothing can clip it, Clipsie included.

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.

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 8 EUR a month per channel with a 7-day trial. See the full ladder.

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 3 moments by itself, so you can judge the automatic detection before paying for it.

How does the trial work?

Paid 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. Cancel before then and you pay nothing. One trial per customer.

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. Cancelling keeps access until the end of the period you already paid for.

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, this month’s free clips are used up, or chat was simply quiet. Clipsie needs a reaction to score, and a stream with no spikes produces no automatic clips. 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
