Kick Go-Live Notifications in Discord

Stream on Kick? Let your Discord know the second you go live — automatic embeds with a per-streamer colour and an optional role ping, no manual posting.

Plenty of communities have moved to (or added) Kick, but most Discord stream bots still only speak Twitch. CloudMod treats Kick as a first-class integration: add a streamer once and your server gets an automatic go-live post every time they start broadcasting.

How it works

You add a Kick username, pick the target channel and optionally a role to mention. CloudMod tracks each streamer's live status and, on a go-live, posts an embed with the stream title and category plus a link to the channel. Kick doesn't offer go-live webhooks for third parties, so CloudMod polls the official Kick API about once a minute — fast enough that your audience arrives early, light enough to stay well within rate limits.

Customisable per streamer

Track as many streamers as you like, each with its own embed colour so notifications are distinguishable at a glance. Swap the default text for your own message using placeholders for the streamer name, title, category and link.

It survives restarts

CloudMod remembers whether a streamer is already live, so a bot restart never re-posts an alert for a stream that's already running. One go-live, one notification.

Run Twitch and Kick side by side

The Kick plugin works exactly like the Twitch one and lives in the same dashboard. Creators who stream on both platforms can announce both from one place, in the channels and with the roles you choose.

Getting-started tip

Add a single streamer and fire a test alert into a quiet channel first. Once the colour, message and mention look right, add the rest and point them at your announcements channel.
