Perchy on Kick

Chat, moderation, rewards and events work through Kick's official API. Kick has no polls, clips, shoutouts or chat modes in it yet, so Perchy says so and runs what it can in chat itself.

What Perchy can do

What works on Kick, and what does not.

Every row is read from the same table the bot uses, so the site cannot promise more than the bot can do.

Chat

Read chat
Works with limits
Works through signed webhooks. Until Kick verifies Perchy, it can read up to 1,000 channels in total, and Kick does not publish delivery and retry rules.
Send chat messages
Works with limits
Messages up to 500 characters. Kick's bot sender is reported broken for public apps, so Perchy sends as a normal account, and Kick publishes no send rate limits.
Announcements

Getting set up

Three steps to connect.

It takes a couple of minutes, and you can switch features on one at a time.

1
Connect your channel
You allow Perchy to read your channel and receive its events. Kick sends them to Perchy as signed messages, which Perchy checks before using.
2
Perchy speaks through an account
Kick sends chat messages as a normal account, so replies come from the account Perchy is connected to. To moderate, that account must be a moderator: type /mod in your chat.
3
Expect honest limits
Kick's API is young and changes often. When something is missing, the dashboard says so and offers the Perchy version.
