01 — Overview

What is Opus Clip?

Opus Clip takes a long recording such as a podcast, webinar or YouTube video and finds the moments most likely to work as standalone short clips. It cuts them, reframes them to a vertical shape that follows the speaker, and adds animated captions.

Each clip gets a score estimating its potential, and you can adjust the text, trim the length or apply a brand template before exporting. It saves hours of manual scrubbing for creators and marketers who repurpose long content.
