# Turn your Kick streams into Instagram Reels

Drop in a Kick stream or clip. Cliphi pulls out the best moments, crops them to vertical, and adds the captions and music for you.

## How it works

1. **Paste your Kick link** Drop in a clip or a full past broadcast. Hand Cliphi a whole stream and it watches the lot to find the moments worth posting.
2. **AI finds and reframes the moment** Cliphi spots the plays and the reactions chat blew up over, then crops each one to vertical so your camera and the action both stay in shot.
3. **Post to Instagram Reels** Each clip comes out vertical and sized for Reels, with captions on screen and a caption written for you. Share it to Instagram from Cliphi, or download it.

## Why Cliphi

- **Built for a newer platform** Most clipping tools still ignore Kick. Cliphi treats it as a first-class source, so you can repurpose a stream the same day it goes out.
- **Clip while you are still live** Cliphi can work on your broadcast in real time, so a highlight can go up before you have ended the stream.
- **Stays clear of the Reels buttons** Cliphi keeps your subject in the safe middle of the frame so the username along the bottom and the buttons up the side never cover the part people came to see.

## Repurpose your Kick streams while they are still fresh

Kick has pulled in a wave of streamers fast, but the short-form tooling around it has not caught up. Most clippers were built for YouTube and Twitch, so Kick creators end up cropping and captioning by hand, or they skip repurposing and leave the reach on the table. The moments that pop on TikTok and Reels are usually buried somewhere in a long Kick broadcast, and digging them out by hand is the part nobody has time for.

Cliphi treats Kick as a first-class source. Paste a clip when you already know the moment, or a full stream when you want it to find the highlights across a few hours of footage. Either way you get finished vertical clips. The crop keeps your camera and the gameplay in the tall frame, the captions track what you are saying, and the music sits under the moment instead of fighting it.

Because it can also work on a broadcast in real time, you do not have to wait until you are offline. A highlight from tonight can be cut, captioned, and posted while you are still on, which is the fastest way to turn a Kick moment into reach somewhere else.

## Framed around the Reels layout

Reels covers a lot of the screen with its own buttons. The username runs along the bottom and the action icons stack up the right side, so anything near those edges gets hidden. Cliphi keeps your subject and the captions in the safe middle of the frame, so nothing gets lost behind the interface. Reels runs up to ninety seconds, which suits one clean moment rather than a long lead-in.

The clip exports with no watermark. That matters on Instagram, because Reels tends to bury clips that carry another app's logo, treating them as reposts. A clean export does not get that treatment, and the caption and hashtags come written for Instagram, ready to paste.

Reels also rewards posting often, so pulling several clips from one source keeps your account active without extra filming. Each clip is a fresh way for someone who has never seen your work to find it.

## FAQ

### Can I turn a Kick VOD into clips?

Yes. Paste the past broadcast link and Cliphi watches the whole thing, picks the moments worth posting, and makes a vertical clip from each. You do not have to clip them on Kick first.

### Does Cliphi work with Kick clips and full streams?

Both. Paste a single clip when you already know the moment, or a full stream when you want the AI to find the highlights across the session.

### Can I clip my Kick stream while I am live?

Yes. Cliphi can process your broadcast in real time, so a highlight can be cut, captioned, and posted before the stream ends.

### Why do my reposted clips get fewer views on Reels?

Instagram tends to push down clips that carry another app's watermark, because it reads them as reposts. Cliphi exports a clean clip with no branding, so it is not treated that way.
