Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Stream Archive.

What is Stream Archive?

Stream Archive is a cloud-based service that captures live streams from your favourite creators automatically. Think of it as a DVR for live streams — add the creators you care about, and every time they go live, the full broadcast is saved for you. No screen recorder, no browser extensions, no leaving your computer running. Just sign up, add creators, and we handle the rest.

How does Stream Archive work?

Create a free account and add creators by pasting their profile URL or username. Our system monitors them around the clock. The moment they start streaming, recording begins automatically in the cloud. When the stream ends, the full recording appears in your library — ready to watch, download, or clip.

Is Stream Archive free?

Yes — the free plan lets you follow up to 3 creators across any platform, with recordings stored for 5 days. You can watch everything in your browser using our built-in player. Premium unlocks downloads, longer storage (30 days), AI-generated clips, and support for up to 100 creators.

Which streaming platforms are supported?

We currently support TikTok, Twitch, YouTube, Kick, Bigo, Tango, AfreecaTV, and Pandalive. Whether you need a TikTok live recorder, a way to download Twitch VODs, or a Bigo live recorder — Stream Archive covers all of them from a single dashboard. More platforms are added regularly.

How long are streams stored?

Free accounts keep streams for 5 days. Premium accounts get 30 days of storage. If there's a recording you want to keep forever, download it to your device before it expires.

How do I start recording a creator?

From your dashboard, click the search button and enter the creator's username or paste their profile URL. Select the correct platform, confirm, and you're done. The next time they go live, recording starts automatically — you don't need to do anything else.

Can I record creators from different platforms at the same time?

Absolutely. Add creators from TikTok, Twitch, Bigo, YouTube, Tango, and any other supported platform — they all appear in one unified library. No switching between apps or services.

Can I download recordings?

Yes — downloading is available on our Premium plan. Every recording has a download button that saves the full video file directly to your device.

What is ClipAI?

ClipAI is our AI-powered tool that watches your recorded streams and automatically finds the most interesting moments. It turns them into short, shareable clips — perfect for posting on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, or Instagram Reels.

What does Premium include?

Premium gives you full video downloads, better recording quality, 30-day storage, AI-generated clips, video editing tools, and the ability to follow up to 100 creators. It's designed for power users, agencies, and creator management teams.

How do I upgrade to Premium?

Head to the Premium page from your dashboard. Pick the plan that suits you — monthly or yearly — and complete the payment. We accept credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal.

Can the creator see that I'm recording their stream?

No. Stream Archive operates entirely in the cloud and never interacts with the creator's account. The recording process is completely invisible — no notifications are sent, no trace is left.

How do I contact support?

Use the contact form on our website anytime. We read every message and aim to respond within 24 hours.

How do I delete my account?

Go to Settings and click Delete Account. All your data is permanently removed immediately. This cannot be undone.

Is my privacy protected?

Yes. We only store your email address and the creator usernames you add. We don't sell or share your data. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
