Opus Clip

Turns long videos into viral-ready short clips automatically

4.5
AI Video Free plan Paid from Starter $15 per month (Pro $29 per month or $14.50 billed yearly) Web App

Opus Clip (OpusClip) is the best-known AI clipping tool: paste a podcast, webinar or stream link and its AI finds the hook moments, scores them for virality, reframes them to 9:16 and burns in animated captions. A 30-minute video typically yields 5-15 postable clips in a couple of minutes.

Used by 20M+ creators and businesses, it has grown into a fuller pipeline with AI B-roll, speech cleanup, dubbing, a social scheduler and one-click export to Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. Credits are charged by source-video minutes, so one long upload can yield many clips for a single credit spend.
