Understand first

Turn One Long Recording Into Several Ready-to-Post Clips

Klipa's AI clips generator turns one long recording — a podcast, interview, livestream or talk — into viral short clips ready for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts. It watches the whole video, finds the moments worth clipping, scores each one, and reframes it vertically, so you don't have to scrub through the timeline yourself.

How the AI picks the clips — and how you can steer it

The AI transcribes the whole video, then scores every passage on five criteria: hook, emotion, informational value, flow and clarity. You also choose a goal — Viral clips, Best moments or Key ideas — which changes how those criteria are weighted, and you can add a short brief or keywords so the analysis looks for what actually matters in your video, instead of one generic "virality score" applied to everyone. The best-scoring passages become your clip suggestions, each with its score out of 10 and the reason it was picked.

Clips that respect your sentences

Instead of forcing every clip to hit an exact length, Klipa lets you set a maximum — the clip still stops wherever the idea actually ends, without ever going past that ceiling. A 20-second moment stays 20 seconds even if you allowed up to 90; it isn't padded out or cut mid-sentence just to hit a round number. Each clip is then reframed to the format you choose (9:16, 4:5, 1:1 or 16:9) with automatic face tracking, ready to post.

What the AI can judge — and its limits

The analysis works first from what's said: it reads the transcript and the audio, so a strong verbal moment — a punchline, a sharp answer, a turn in the story — is exactly what it's built to catch. When a video has little or no speech, an image analysis takes over and picks moments from what happens on screen; it is less good at a gag that relies on context or an in-joke with no spoken cue. The more genuinely spoken the content, the more precise the choice of clips.

A free account, then credits

The analysis calls on AI billed by the minute, so generating clips needs a free account — opened in one step, with no card required. The credits granted on sign-up cover your first generations; after that each generation costs according to the video's length, and watching or downloading the clips of a paid generation costs nothing more. Then add animated subtitles to the clip you publish, with a live style preview before burning them in.

How it works

How to turn a long video into short clips

Step 1

Upload your long video

Podcast, interview, livestream, conference talk: drop the video you want clips from — MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV or WebM, up to 2 GB.

Step 2

Set your goal, count and format

Pick Viral clips, Best moments or Key ideas, choose how many clips (1, 3 or 5 on a long enough video), a maximum length and one or more output formats — the AI still cuts on a complete idea, never on a fixed number. Add a keyword or a short brief if you're looking for something specific.

Step 3

Review, caption and download

Each suggestion comes with a score out of 10 and the reason it was kept. Keep the ones you like, then add animated captions to the clip you're publishing before you download it.

Why Klipa

Why generate your clips with Klipa's AI?

Benefit — AI Clips Generator — Best Moments from Long Videos

A score you can actually steer

Every clip is scored on hook, emotion, value, flow and clarity — weighted by the goal you pick (Viral clips, Best moments or Key ideas). Add a brief or keywords and the AI looks for what matters to you, not a one-size-fits-all virality number.

Benefit — AI Clips Generator — Best Moments from Long Videos

Clips reframed vertically, automatically

Clips are reframed to 9:16 with face tracking, ready for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Select several formats at once and each clip renders in all of them, no separate export needed.

Benefit — AI Clips Generator — Best Moments from Long Videos

Clips that don't cut you off mid-sentence

You set a maximum length, never a fixed one: the AI still ends each clip on a complete idea within that ceiling, and you choose 1, 3 or 5 clips on videos long enough to offer that choice.

Benefit — AI Clips Generator — Best Moments from Long Videos

Animated subtitles on your clips

Add animated subtitles to the clip of your choice, right after generation, with a live preview of the style before you burn them in.

Real cases

When to use an AI clips generator

Clips from a podcast

An hour of podcast yields several short clips, each built around one strong idea, reframed vertically and ready to post.

Clips from a Twitch VOD or livestream

Run the Best moments goal on the full stream recording and the moments that made your chat react become standalone clips, with no need to re-watch hours of footage.

Clips from an interview or a long YouTube video

One long video feeds several days of posting: every clip is a piece of content in its own right, each centered on a different exchange or moment.

Highlights from a webinar or a conference talk

Set the Key ideas goal and the AI favors the substantive passages — an explanation, an argument, a real answer — over a shock moment, useful for a keynote, a panel or an online course.

Clips from a sermon or a long talk

A sermon, a lecture or a community address rarely gets watched in full online; a few self-contained clips carry the message further than the full recording ever would.

Frequently asked

AI clips generator — frequently asked questions

How do I turn a long video into short clips with AI?

Upload the video, pick a goal (Viral clips, Best moments or Key ideas), choose how many clips and a maximum length, then run the analysis. Generating clips needs a free account and uses your credits based on the video's length; the credits granted on sign-up cover your first generations. Watching and downloading the clips of a generation costs nothing more, and they come with no logo.

How does the AI decide which moments to clip?

It transcribes the whole video, then scores every passage on hook, emotion, value, flow and clarity, weighted by the goal you picked. You can also add a keyword or a short brief so it looks for something specific instead of one generic score.

How many clips can I generate from one video?

1, 3 or 5, once the video is long enough to offer that choice. On a shorter source, the AI sets the count itself, based on how much distinct content the recording actually holds — never the same moment split into two clips.

Are the clips reframed for TikTok, Reels and Shorts?

Yes. Each clip is reframed to the format or formats you pick — 9:16, 4:5, 1:1 or 16:9 — with automatic face tracking, so the speaker stays framed even on a static camera or a wide group shot.

Can I add subtitles to my clips?

Yes, after generation. Pick the one clip you're publishing and burn animated captions onto it, with a live preview of the exact style beforehand. Your other clips stay untouched on the results page, ready to caption later if you need them.

How long a video can I analyse?

Up to 2 GB, in MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV or WebM. With a free account, a longer video isn't rejected: the AI analyses its first 10 minutes. A Pro plan analyses the full recording, up to 2 hours — useful for a whole podcast episode or a long livestream.

What if the AI finds no clip worth keeping?

This only happens when the source doesn't hold enough real speech — silence, music with no dialogue, or a video under about a minute. Once there's genuine spoken content to work from, you always get at least one scored suggestion, even a modest one; it's your call whether to keep it.

Do the clips carry a watermark?

No — your exported clips come clean, with no Klipa logo. Generating clips uses your credits based on the video's length (your first is on us); watching and downloading the clips of a paid generation costs nothing more.

What does the clip score actually measure?

Hook, emotion, informational value, flow and clarity, combined into one number out of 10 and weighted by the goal you chose — Viral clips leans on hook and emotion, Key ideas leans on value and clarity. It's a starting point for your judgment, not a guarantee of views.

My video is only a few seconds long — why can't I use AI Clips?

AI Clips extracts moments from a longer recording; under about a minute, there's nothing left to extract, since the video is already a short. For a clip that short, reframing it to 9:16 or adding subtitles will serve you better than this tool.

In closing

Your long videos are worth more than you get from them

Finding the right excerpts by hand takes hours of scrubbing through a timeline. Klipa's AI clips generator analyses the whole video, scores every passage against the goal you choose, reframes the best ones vertically and dresses them with animated subtitles. What's left is the one thing only you can judge: which clips you publish.
