Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
Turns long video into short vertical clips: it picks the moments it predicts will perform, reframes to keep the speaker in shot, and burns in captions.
Who it is for
Anyone sitting on long recordings — podcasts, webinars, streams — who wants short-form output without watching it all back.
Where it is strongest
Getting a first pass of twenty candidate clips out of an hour of footage in minutes, so a person only has to judge rather than hunt.
Where it falls short
Its sense of what is interesting is mediocre, so the pile needs a human pass. Captions misread names and jargon. And reframing goes wrong whenever more than one person is talking.
Our verdict
Recommended as a shortcut, not as a replacement. It saves the searching, which is most of the work; it does not save the judging.
