Use case
Live stream clips that arrive before the stream ends
Paste the live link from YouTube, Twitch or Kick. Cortfy records in 5, 10 or 15-minute windows and, after each one, picks the best stretches, frames the speaker and delivers vertical clips with captions and a hook. Chat peaks help pick the moment. You pay only for the minutes recorded, on streams up to 10 hours.
What it costs
You pay per minute recorded. A 3-hour stream = 180 balance minutes.
Cortfy reserves the maximum duration you choose and refunds what it does not record.
Up to 3 clips per window: a 2-hour stream in 10-minute windows yields up to 36 clips.
Live clipping is on the Pro and Studio plans. A finished stream (VOD) works on any plan through its YouTube link.
You pay for the minutes of the video you upload. You see the cost before generating, and whatever is not used goes back to your balance.
What each clip comes with
- Clips arriving during the broadcast, with word-by-word captions and an on-screen hook.
- The speaker framed; on a gaming stream, the streamer's camera on top and the game below.
- Silences removed; each clip with a title, social copy and a potential score.
- A live panel with minutes recorded, windows clipped and chat per minute, with a stop button.
How it works
- 01
Paste the live link
YouTube, Twitch or Kick. Choose the window (5, 10 or 15 minutes) and the maximum duration (1 to 10 hours).
- 02
Pick the look
Let the AI choose or use a live template. B-roll stays off on live streams.
- 03
Publish while on air
Clips show up in the dashboard as they finish. Post to TikTok and YouTube Shorts before the stream ends.
Settings that matter
- 01
Followed channel
Mark a channel and every stream of it is recorded and clipped on its own, with no link to paste.
- 02
Chat peaks
On Twitch the chat is read live. On YouTube, the chat replay of a finished stream also feeds the selection.
- 03
Smaller window, earlier clip
A 5-minute window delivers faster; 15 minutes gives the AI more context. For a talk stream, 10 is a good middle.
- 04
Finished stream
Stream over? Paste the YouTube video link as a regular video. The chat replay still helps the selection.
Frequently asked questions
How long after something is said does the clip arrive?
The window has to close first. With 10-minute windows, something said at minute 12 becomes a clip around minute 22 to 25, depending on the queue.
What if the stream drops or I stop early?
Cortfy stops recording and charges only what it recorded. The rest of the reservation goes back to your balance.
Does it work with private or members-only streams?
No. The stream has to be public on YouTube, Twitch or Kick.
How many streams at the same time?
It depends on the plan and on recording slots at the moment. When there is no slot, Cortfy says so right away, before reserving any balance minutes.
Does it work for a church service or an event?
Yes. Churches are one of the most common uses: the service on YouTube becomes sermon clips during the broadcast. See the churches page.
