What is Opus Clip?

Opus Clip takes a long recording, such as a podcast, webinar or livestream, and cuts it into short vertical clips. It transcribes the audio, looks for self-contained moments, reframes them for a 9:16 canvas with speaker tracking, adds animated captions and titles, and gives each result a predicted viral score. A bulk workflow processes many videos at once and can push finished clips to social platforms on a schedule. It does not try to be a general editor; it is a repurposing pipeline, and that narrowness is what makes it save real time on podcast and interview libraries.

FAQ

How accurate is the clip selection?

Mixed. It reliably finds sentence boundaries, but the moments it rates highest are not always the ones people actually watch. Most users review the list, keep a few, and export extra clips manually.

Can I edit a clip after it is generated?

Yes. You can trim boundaries, adjust captions and wording, change the template and crop, and swap the layout. Deeper changes to the underlying footage still belong in a separate editor.

Does it work for languages other than English?

Several languages are supported for transcription and captions, and the list keeps changing. Accuracy outside English varies, so check whether your language is currently listed before relying on it.
