Which Kick streamers your competitors sponsor: 26 energy-drink sponsorships from 10,000 live streams

Kick streamers advertise their sponsors in plain sight: a chat command in the stream title, a brand link in the channel's link panel, sometimes a promo code. Nobody collects that across channels, so I built a small tool on Apify that does: it scans the live streams on Kick, reads each channel's titles, links and the last month of broadcasts, and returns one row per streamer and brand.

Here is one real use: an energy-drink brand for gamers checking which streamers its competitors sponsor.

The input

{
  "brands": ["HOLY", "G FUEL", "Red Bull", "DZIK"],
  "maxLiveStreams": 10000,
  "minViewers": 1
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

The run looked through 10,000 live streams, picked the 26 streamers whose live title named one of the brands, and checked each channel in depth. It took about four minutes.

One row per streamer and brand

Each sponsorship row says where the brand shows up (live title, past broadcast titles, channel links, bio), how many of the streamer's last 30 broadcasts named it, how many hours those were, and any promo or affiliate codes. One example: rybsonlol, live with 20,518 viewers at the time, named HOLY in all 30 recent broadcasts, 276.6 hours.

The brand summary

  • HOLY: 16 streamers, 26,211 live viewers at the time, 357 broadcasts and 2,507 hours in the past month.
  • DZIK and G FUEL: 5 streamers each.
  • Red Bull: none in this scan.

A sponsorship here means the channel points viewers to the brand. It is what the channel shows publicly, not a confirmed contract.

Running it every day

Give the run a watch name and schedule it. Each row then carries isNew, so a new sponsorship (a streamer starting with a brand) stands out. Export any table to Excel or CSV.

About 110 brands are recognised out of the box (drinks, gear, game stores, VPNs, skin sites, sportsbooks and more), and any brand you type is tracked the same way. $3 per 1,000 sponsorships, no start fee: this run cost about $0.18. No login, public data only.
