Opus Clip — AI video repurposing tool that turns long videos into short social clips.
Opus Clip is the go-to AI clipper for creators who record long-form content (podcasts, webinars, vlogs) and need polished short-form clips for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts without manual editing. It nails the hard parts automatically — finding hooks, adding animated captions, auto-reframing to 9:16, and scoring clips by predicted virality. DB pricing (~$15/mo entry) is accurate; the free plan is genuinely functional at 60 min/mo though exports carry a watermark.
Opus Clip reduces a 2-hour editing session to a 10-minute review. The combination of hook detection, animated captions, and virality scoring means even novice creators can ship platform-native clips confidently. Auto-posting integrations complete the workflow end-to-end.
Processing credits are consumed per source minute, so heavy users hitting multiple long videos weekly run into plan limits fast and face meaningful upgrade costs. AI clip selection occasionally misses context or cuts at awkward moments, requiring manual review.
