AI video clipper for long recordings

Turn long videos into
clips worth watching

Upload a recording. Clyps finds the moments that stand on their own, keeps the speaker in a vertical frame, and times the captions to the speech. You can change every one of those decisions before you export.

Free to start. No card. 30 source minutes and 3 exports a month.

How a clip gets made

Clyps makes four decisions, and you can overrule every one

Scroll. The stage on the right is one real recording going through the pipeline.

01 · Transcribe

It reads the whole recording

Every word gets a timestamp. With word level timing, a caption can follow speech to the syllable, and a trim can start on a word instead of a guess.

Video transcription

02 · Find

It picks the moments that stand alone

Each suggestion comes with a title, a score and a written reason. The range is a proposal, not a verdict. Drag either end and the transcript follows.

How clips are chosen

03 · Frame

It keeps the speaker in a vertical frame

Center, Fit, Fill, Manual, tracked Auto follow, or a two person Split screen. The crop is drawn on the source, so you can see exactly what leaves the frame.

How reframing works

04 · Caption

It sets the words to the speech

106 templates, all editable. The preview paints the same treatment the export renders, so what you approve is what you post.

Caption templates
Training on Earth and in orbit04:02.520 – 04:09.200

Animated captions · 106 templates

Caption styles, live, from the same data the export uses

These are not thumbnails. Each tile paints its treatment from the template definition, so what moves here is what renders in your MP4. Pick a group to swap the set, hover to pause, then change any of it in the editor.

Beyond English

Captions that read right in Arabic, Urdu and Hindi

Arabic and Urdu run right to left, in Naskh and Nastaliq. Hindi keeps its conjuncts and vowel signs. Clyps shapes every line with HarfBuzz and the pinned Noto fonts the export draws with, and each template keeps its colors and word highlight. Latin keeps its accents, and Creator suggests an emoji when a word calls for one.

What is in the editor

Everything you would open a video editor for, without opening one

Smart reframing

Text behind the speaker

Words between the person and the wall

3 templates set the caption behind the speaker. In a browser with WebGPU, SAM 2.1 tracks the person on your device and the export uses that same matte. Elsewhere, Clyps makes the matte on its servers.

Length and cuts

Ask for the length you post

Set the range before Clyps looks. In the editor, delete a word or a pause from the transcript and the cut follows; restore it the same way.

Before you upload

How long can my recording be?
Up to 40 minutes and 20 GB per file, as MP4, MOV, M4V or WebM. Your plan's source minutes set how much you can bring in each month.
How long are the clips Clyps suggests?
You choose before Clyps looks: Auto (10 to 90 seconds), under 30 seconds, 30 to 60, 60 to 90, or your own range from 5 to 180 seconds. You can drag either end of any clip afterwards.
Which languages can I caption?
Choose the spoken language when you upload. Captions draw Latin text with its accents, and Arabic, Urdu and Hindi in their own scripts, shaped with pinned Noto fonts. Other scripts, such as Chinese or Cyrillic, are not drawn in captions yet.
Does the preview match the export?
Yes. The editor paints from the same video specification the renderer uses, and visual edits never wait on a server render. Text behind the speaker uses the same matte in the preview and the MP4.
Is any feature locked to a paid plan?
No. Free has the full editor, all 106 templates, text behind the speaker, B-roll and 4K export. Plans differ in minutes, exports and storage, and paid exports carry no watermark.
Can I paste a YouTube link or post straight to TikTok?
Not yet. Upload the file you recorded, then download the finished MP4 and post it where you publish.
