# Best Kick chat bots compared > An honest roundup of chat bots for Kick in 2026: KickBot, Botrix, Kicklet, Streamlabs, StreamElements, Fossabot, Streamer.bot and more, with features and prices. Source: https://kickbot.com/guides/compare/best-kick-bots The main chat bots for Kick in 2026 are **KickBot** and **Kicklet** (both made only for Kick), **Botrix** (Kick plus Twitch, YouTube and more), and the Kick support in larger tools such as **Streamlabs**, **StreamElements** and **Fossabot**. Desktop apps such as **Streamer.bot**, **Mix It Up** and **Lumia Stream** also connect to Kick. Most of them have a free option. For a Kick-only channel that wants TTS, `!clip`, VOD tools and card tips with chargeback protection in one dashboard, KickBot covers the most. For loyalty points, song requests or several platforms, Botrix and Kicklet are strong picks. KickBot is our product, so read this page with that in mind. Every fact about other bots comes from that bot's own website or docs, checked on October 24, 2026, with links. We did not use review sites or ratings. When a feature is not on a bot's site, we say "not listed on their site". Prices and features change often, so check each site before you decide. Where KickBot is stronger, we say so, with numbers. > **Note:** This page is about chat bots for your own channel: commands, alerts, moderation and overlays. It is not about services that add fake viewers or followers. Those break [Kick's community guidelines](https://kick.com/community-guidelines), which prohibit bots and tools that artificially inflate views, followers or interactions. ## What a Kick chat bot does A Kick bot is an account (or an app) that joins your chat as a moderator and does repeat work for you: - Answers **commands** such as `!discord` or `!followage`. - Posts **timed messages** while you are live. - Deletes spam, caps and bad words with **filters**. - Posts **chat alerts** for follows, subs and KICKs, and drives **on-screen alerts** in OBS. - Extras such as **TTS**, clips, tips, points, song requests or AI replies. Kick has its own mod tools and commands, such as `/ban`, `/timeout` and `/slow` ([Kick chat commands](https://help.kick.com/en/articles/7112979-kick-chat-commands)), but it has no custom commands or timed messages of its own. That is what a bot adds. To set one up step by step, see [set up a chat bot on Kick](https://kickbot.com/guides/setup/kick-chat-bot-setup). ## Quick comparison | Bot | Type | Platforms | Stand-out features for Kick | Price | |---|---|---|---|---| | [KickBot](#kickbot) | Cloud bot and dashboard | Kick | 3,000+ TTS voices, voice cloning, card tips, `!clip`, VOD tools, AI character | Free, Premium $9.99/month or $84/year | | [Botrix](#botrix) | Cloud bot and dashboard | Kick, Twitch, YouTube, Trovo, Discord | Loyalty points, song requests, giveaways, games, PayPal donations | Free, Premium price shown after sign-in | | [Kicklet](#kicklet) | Cloud bot and dashboard | Kick | Points shop, giveaways, song requests, JavaScript commands | Free, Premium price not public | | [Streamlabs](#streamlabs) | Desktop app, cloud bot, alerts | Kick and others | Alerts, tip page, Cloudbot, Streamlabs Desktop | Free core tools, Ultra from $15.75/month | | [StreamElements](#streamelements) | Cloud bot, overlays | Kick and others | Overlays and alerts, KICKs alerts | Free | | [Fossabot](#fossabot) | Cloud bot | Twitch, YouTube, Kick, X | Spam filters, Kick alerts | Free | | [Streamer.bot](#streamerbot) | Desktop app (Windows) | Kick and others | Deep automation | Free | | [Mix It Up](#mix-it-up) | Windows app | Twitch, YouTube, Kick and others | Automation from Kick events | Free | | [Lumia Stream](#lumia-stream) | Desktop app | Kick and others | Lights and stream effects | Free, paid from $5.99/month | ## When KickBot is the better fit - **TTS is a big part of your stream.** KickBot has 4 free TTS voices and more than 3,000 with Premium, voice cloning, and no monthly limit on TTS messages. Botrix's cloud TTS has a monthly limit on its Free plan, and TTS is not listed on Kicklet's site. - **You want clips without extra software.** KickBot's `!clip` runs on KickBot's servers. Botrix says its `!clip` needs its browser extension and the Kick control panel open. - **You want card tips that protect you.** KickBot pays the $15 dispute fee on chargebacks, you can reject a tip before the viewer pays, and viewers never see your name or email. Botrix uses PayPal, where PayPal's fees and dispute fees apply. See [accept tips on Kick](https://kickbot.com/guides/money/accept-tips-on-kick). - **You want Kick VOD tools in the same place.** A VOD downloader, a VOD editor and a clip downloader come with KickBot. - **You want AI in chat and on stream.** An AI character that answers in chat, and AI images with `!imagine`. ## How to choose Ask these questions before you pick a bot: 1. **Do you stream only on Kick?** A Kick-only bot is built around Kick's features (KICKs, Kick roles, Kick clips). If you also stream on Twitch or YouTube, a multi-platform bot means one setup. 2. **What do your viewers do the most?** If your chat loves TTS, compare voices. If they love games and points, compare loyalty systems. 3. **Do you want tips?** Check how the bot takes payments, the fees, and who handles chargebacks. 4. **Cloud or desktop?** Cloud bots run when your PC is off. Desktop apps such as Streamer.bot only work while the app is running, but they can control your PC and OBS. 5. **What does the free plan allow?** Look at the limits on commands, timers and TTS. You can use more than one bot. Many streamers do. Just make sure two bots do not answer the same command. ## KickBot [KickBot](https://kickbot.com) is a cloud bot and dashboard made only for Kick. - **Chat bot**: [custom commands](https://kickbot.com/docs/chat-bot/custom-commands) with variables and cooldowns, [built-in commands](https://kickbot.com/docs/chat-bot/built-in-commands) such as `!followage` and `!lurk`, [timed messages](https://kickbot.com/docs/chat-bot/timed-messages), [chat filters](https://kickbot.com/docs/chat-bot/moderation) and [chat alerts](https://kickbot.com/docs/alerts/chat-alerts) for follows, subs, gifted subs and KICKs. - **TTS**: viewers send TTS with a command for each voice. 4 voices are free, more than 3,000 voices come with Premium, plus [voice cloning](https://kickbot.com/docs/tts/voice-cloning) and [auto read](https://kickbot.com/docs/tts/auto-read) of chat. See [TTS on Kick](https://kickbot.com/guides/setup/tts-on-kick). - **Clips and VODs**: a [`!clip` command](https://kickbot.com/docs/chat-bot/clip-command) that runs on KickBot's servers, public [clip pages](https://kickbot.com/docs/clips-vods/clip-pages), a [VOD downloader](https://kickbot.com/docs/clips-vods/vod-downloader) and a [VOD editor](https://kickbot.com/docs/clips-vods/vod-editor). - **Tips**: your own [tip page](https://kickbot.com/docs/tipping/set-up-tipping) with card payments through Stripe, TTS and GIFs on stream.

For a full side-by-side, see [KickBot vs Botrix](https://kickbot.com/guides/compare/kickbot-vs-botrix). ## Kicklet [Kicklet](https://kicklet.app) calls itself "a Kick-first chat bot". Its site lists custom commands, timers, variables, song requests, moderation rules and JavaScript commands, plus overlays, alerts, follower goals, a points shop, giveaways and analytics. Kick's own help center names Kicklet as a tool to download Kick VODs ([How to download your Kick VOD](https://help.kick.com/en/articles/7832538-how-to-download-your-kick-vod)).

Its Cloudbot works on Kick with custom commands, timers, chat alerts, counters, quotes, a queue, mini-games and media share ([Cloudbot on Kick](https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-set-up-streamlabs-cloudbot-kick)). - **Tips**: Streamlabs says it does not take a cut of tips.

In September 2026 it added KICKs to its activity feed, alert box, overlay widgets and chat alerts ([StreamElements changelog](https://docs.streamelements.com/changelog/post/2026-09-13-kicks-support)). StreamElements says its alerts and widgets are free ([streamelements.com](https://streamelements.com)). > **Caution:** StreamElements says SEPay balances can be withdrawn until December 31, 2026, and creators must connect PayPal to keep receiving tips ([StreamElements support](https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/37638071435282)). If you take tips through StreamElements, check that page. ## Fossabot [Fossabot](https://fossabot.com) calls itself "the best chat bot for Twitch, YouTube, Kick & X". Its site lists Kick alerts for follows, subs, resubs and gifted subs, plus spam filters, timers and custom commands. It is free and cloud hosted. ## Streamer.bot [Streamer.bot](https://streamer.bot) is a desktop app for stream automation. Its docs list Windows as the main platform and say the Kick integration is free to use ([Streamer.bot platform support](https://docs.streamer.bot/faq/platform-support)). It connects to Kick through Kick's webhooks, and its docs say Kick events can be delayed when Kick's API is slow ([Streamer.bot Kick docs](https://docs.streamer.bot/guide/platforms/kick)). It only receives events while the app is running and signed in. It is a good fit if you like building your own actions, but it takes more setup than a cloud bot. ## Mix It Up [Mix It Up](https://mixitup.bot) is a desktop app for Windows 10 and 11. On Kick, it reacts to follows, subs, gifted subs, Channel Points and KICKs, and it can set the title, category and tags ([Mix It Up Kick docs](https://mixitup.bot/docs/platforms/kick)).

Its pricing page lists Kick multistreaming and Kick Channel Points interactions. The free plan has overlays, a default chat bot and limited commands. Paid plans are $5.99 a month, $32.99 for 6 months or $59.99 a year ([Lumia Stream pricing](https://lumiastream.com/pricing)). ## Popular bots that do not support Kick Some well-known Twitch bots do not work on Kick, according to their own sites: - **Nightbot** lists Twitch, YouTube, Trovo and SOOP, not Kick ([Nightbot docs](https://docs.nightbot.tv/setup)). - **Sery_Bot** says it "will never be on Kick" ([Sery_Bot docs](https://docs.sery.bot/kick/)). - **Firebot** describes itself as a bot for Twitch ([firebot.app](https://firebot.app)). If you move from Twitch with one of these, you need a different bot on Kick. ## Our suggestions - **You want TTS, tips and clips, and you stream on Kick only**: KickBot. - **You want points, song requests and giveaways, or you stream on several platforms**: Botrix or Kicklet. - **You already use Streamlabs for alerts**: Streamlabs, and add a Kick bot for the features it does not have. - **You want to automate your PC and OBS from Kick events**: Streamer.bot or Mix It Up, often together with a cloud bot. To try KickBot, [create your account](https://kickbot.com/docs/getting-started/create-your-account) and type `/mod KickBot` in your Kick chat. Most of KickBot is free. ## FAQ **What is the best bot for Kick?** There is no single best bot for every channel. For a Kick-only channel, KickBot covers the most in one place: 3,000+ TTS voices, `!clip` without an extension, card tips with chargeback protection and Kick VOD tools. Botrix and Kicklet are strong on loyalty points, song requests and giveaways. Streamlabs and StreamElements are good if you already use them for alerts. All have a free option, so try the one that fits your channel. **How do I add a bot to my Kick chat?** Sign up on the bot's website with your Kick account, then make the bot a moderator in your chat with `/mod` and the bot's name. For KickBot, type `/mod KickBot`. See [set up a chat bot on Kick](https://kickbot.com/guides/setup/kick-chat-bot-setup). **Does Nightbot work on Kick?** Nightbot's setup page lists Twitch, YouTube, Trovo and SOOP. Kick is not on the list, so you need a different bot for Kick. **Are Kick bots free?** Most Kick bots have a free plan. KickBot, Botrix and Kicklet have paid plans with higher limits and extra features. Fossabot, StreamElements, Streamer.bot and Mix It Up are free.
