Made for streamers, podcasters, and clippers

Whoever you are, the same AI clipping agent — and the same Studio editor and auto-publishing — adapts to how you actually work.

Streamers

Turn a 4-hour VOD into a week of Shorts and Reels without opening an editor.

Submit last night's stream before bed. By morning, a full week of ready-to-post clips is waiting — captioned, cropped, and scored for which ones are worth pinning to the top of your feed.

Podcasters

Every episode becomes 8-12 standalone moments your audience can find you through.

Long-form audience growth increasingly happens one clip at a time. OptimaClip finds the specific 45-second answer, story, or disagreement that makes someone stop scrolling and go find the full episode.

Clippers

Run clipping as a service for multiple creators from one team workspace.

Seat-based access and per-client history mean you can operate several creators' clip pipelines from a single login without anything crossing over.

Brands & Agencies

Repurpose webinars, demos, and interviews into on-brand short-form, at volume.

Client workspaces, brand templates, and full API access are built for agencies repurposing content for more than one account at a time.

OptimaClip in use

Wherever creators record, OptimaClip does the clipping

Streams, podcasts, lessons and phone shoots: one long video goes in, scored and captioned clips come out.

What creators tell us

“The AI finds the hooks, adds captions in my brand style, and queues everything.”
“My shorts output went up without needing an editor on every stream.”
“Finally made repurposing retainers profitable.”
“We went from posting clips that barely got seen to having a repeatable way to test stronger hooks.”
“Now OptimaClip handles it all under one login and price.”
“We can keep all of a client's clips, calendars, and brand presets in one place.”

How people use it

From long video to posted clips, step by step

Real screen recordings from the OptimaClip dashboard. This is the whole workflow: nothing sped up, nothing mocked up.

  1. 1

    Paste a link or upload

    Drop in a YouTube, Twitch or Kick link, or upload a file straight from your computer.

  2. 2

    Tell the AI what to look for

    Optional: name a topic, a guest, a game moment, or what to leave out.

  3. 3

    Watch it work

    The job transcribes, scans and cuts while you do something else.

  4. 4

    Open the highest-scored clip

    Every clip comes back with a 0–100 virality score, so you start with the strongest.

  5. 5

    Read why the AI picked it

    A plain-English reason on every clip: the hook, the payoff, why it should land.

  6. 6

    Tweak the captions

    Word-by-word captions you can edit, restyle or switch off.

  7. 7

    Schedule the whole week

    Queue clips across days and platforms in one pass.

  8. 8

    Publish everywhere at once

    Send a clip to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram and more from one screen.

The AI that finds your viral clips — and a studio that finishes them.

Two hard jobs, one subscription. OptimaClip's AI agent watches your whole podcast, stream VOD or YouTube video and pulls the moments actually worth posting — each with a virality score and the reasoning. Then OptimaClip Studio — a full timeline editor you drive by chat — turns them into finished videos: transitions, music, captions you edit right on the frame, your own footage, a cover image. Then it schedules them to 8 platforms. No CapCut round-trip. No second app.

The AI picks your best moments — and shows its reasoning

“I used to bounce between three different tools for clipping, captioning, and scheduling.”
01

AI finds the moments

It reviews the long-form video and surfaces clips worth reviewing — each with a score and the reason it was picked.

02

Finish clips in Studio

Captions, reframing, and editing tools — a real timeline editor, not a black box.

03

Publish from one workflow

Export manually, or schedule and publish straight to your connected platforms.

The clip that explains itself, not just a render.

“My team just uploads a webinar and the short-form content is ready to ship.”

Everything OpusClip and Vizard do. Plus what they don't.

Clipping and captioning are table stakes now. OptimaClip's edge is the workflow around them — one product instead of three tools stitched together.

AI Clipping Agent

Feed it a podcast, webinar, stream VOD, or YouTube video. It transcribes the whole thing, reasons over the transcript, and finds the hooks, punchlines, and teaching moments worth cutting — each candidate clip comes back with a virality score and a plain-English reason it was picked.

Auto-Captions & Brand Styling

Every clip comes back captioned and reframed for vertical, with word-level highlight styling — or skip captions entirely. Save fonts, colors, and logo placement once as a Brand Template and every future clip matches automatically.

Creator+

Smart Reframe

Instead of a fixed center-crop, Smart Reframe follows the visual subject as it moves — built for interviews, gaming footage, and anyone who doesn't sit dead-center in frame.

Creator+

Scheduling & Publishing

Queue a month of clips in one sitting. OptimaClip rotates them across 8 connected platforms — including LinkedIn and Bluesky — on the cadence you set, so "post something today" stops being a daily decision.

Advanced Clip Editor

Trim, restyle captions, swap the platform mix, and preview before it ships — a real editor, not a black box, so you're always one click from a manual override.

Creator+

OptimaClip Studio — the agentic editor

Open any finished clip in a full timeline editor you drive by chat. Sequence several clips, add transitions, music and sound effects, title cards and lower-thirds, drop in your own footage or a voiceover, and drag captions and text right on the video frame to place them. Live per-clip speed, click-and-drag trimming, split anywhere, and a cover-image picker for the thumbnail. "Describe the edit, watch the timeline change." Replaces the round-trip to CapCut or Premiere — and never leaves OptimaClip.

Team Workspaces

Invite editors and account managers with role-based access. Agencies get per-client workspaces so nothing from Client A ever bleeds into Client B's brand templates or history.

Creator+

Clipping, captions, reframing, scheduling and an editor, plus a few things you can't get at OpusClip's price.

Explained, not a black box

AI clip finder with a virality score

Animated captions in 21 languages

Brand-styled, single-word pop or classic, custom colors, fonts and positions. Included free on every export.

New

Curse-word censor

One toggle masks profanity in captions and silences it in the audio — brand-safe clips without an editor.

Signature feature

Find any moment by describing it

Type “the funniest fail” or “every mention of pricing” — search reads the transcript and watches the frames, even in silent video.

Twitch & Kick VOD import

Paste a VOD link and get the highlights. Streamers and clip channels are first-class here.

Signature feature

Highlight Reels

Auto-stitch every matching moment into one compilation clip. No manual stitching.

Creator plan

Studio: edit by chatting

A full timeline editor driven by AI chat — transitions, music, sound effects, text, your own footage, voice-over. Replaces the CapCut round-trip.

New

Smart Reframe with face tracking

The crop follows the main speaker's face across the clip, so wide video becomes vertical with the person always in frame.

New

Premiere Pro & DaVinci Resolve export

Download an edit list (EDL) and SRT captions for any clip and open the cut in your editor. Free on every plan.

New

AI voice-over

Type text, pick a voice, and drop natural narration onto your Studio timeline. 1 credit per voice-over, paid plans.

AI dubbing in 17 languages

Re-voice any finished clip in another language. 10 credits per minute of video, charged only when the dub finishes; paid plans.

Post everywhere, on a schedule

Built-in scheduling to YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Threads, LinkedIn and Bluesky.

Signature feature

Developer API on Creator

Automate clipping from Zapier, n8n or your own code — API access starts at $39/mo, not a custom enterprise quote.

Teams & client workspaces

Seats, roles, brand templates per client. Agency-ready without the enterprise price tag.

Before you check pricing

The three questions people ask us most before signing up.

In accounts we've tracked, average views per clip went from 187 to 1,460 (+681%) over 30 days after switching to OptimaClip — with engagement rate climbing from 1.2% to 3.1% and retention rate from 42% to 68%. That's not fully automatic, though: the AI finds and scores the moments, but clips that get a quick review and polish in Studio before publishing consistently outperform clips posted straight off the raw AI pick.
