Opus Clip takes a long recording and produces vertical short clips with captions, reframing and a virality score on each candidate. The moment selection is the product and it is genuinely useful for podcasts and webinars. You still review and reject clips, but the starting point is far ahead of manual cutting.
Who it is for
A podcaster or webinar host who needs a steady supply of vertical clips without an editor.
Key features
- Automatic identification of clip-worthy moments
- Virality score per candidate clip
- Active speaker reframing to vertical
- Animated captions and templates
- Direct scheduling to social platforms
Where it falls short
The virality score is a guess dressed as a metric, and the clips it picks often start mid-thought — you will re-cut more than the demo suggests.
Pricing
Free tier gives a limited number of upload minutes and watermarks output. Paid starts around $15 a month and is gated on upload minutes, not on clip count. Long source videos eat the allowance quickly.
