- What does Clipwise actually do?
- You give it a long video — a podcast, an interview, a stream, a lecture — as an upload or a link. It transcribes the audio, finds the moments that stand on their own, and renders them as vertical clips with word-level captions, ready to post.
- How does it decide which moments to clip?
- It reads the transcript and looks for segments that make sense without surrounding context: a complete thought, a story, a strong claim, a clear answer. Every clip comes back with the reason it was chosen and a confidence value, so you can disagree with it.
- Why show confidence instead of a virality score?
- Because nobody can predict views from a transcript, and a number that pretends otherwise just moves the guessing into a decimal point. Confidence tells you how sure the model is that a moment is self-contained — which is something it can actually judge.
- Which languages are supported?
- Transcription auto-detects the spoken language and handles most major ones. Subtitles can be translated into a long list of target languages, including low-resource scripts like Amharic, which run on a stronger model because weaker ones mangle them.
- Can I edit a clip after it's generated?
- Yes. You can trim the start and end, split a clip in two, change the aspect ratio and framing, restyle the captions, remove filler words, tighten long pauses, and edit the transcript directly — deleting a word cuts it out of the video, not just the captions.
- Do I own the clips?
- Yes, completely. You keep ownership of what you upload and everything produced from it. We claim no rights in your content and never use it to train models.
- Can I clip someone else's video?
- Only with permission from the rights holder. Clipping a video you don't own may infringe copyright and may breach the source platform's terms. That responsibility sits with you, and we ask you to confirm it before export.
- How does pricing work?
- Exports consume credits, and credits are charged on delivery — a failed render costs you nothing. The free plan is capped at a few jobs per day so one account can't occupy the whole queue; a paid plan lifts that cap. Purchased credits don't expire.
- How do I pay?
- USDT on TRON or BSC, verified automatically on-chain. Card payments through Binance Pay or Stripe are available when the operator has connected a processor.
- Can it post to YouTube, TikTok or Instagram for me?
- Yes. Connect an account and Clipwise can publish a clip directly, or schedule it for later. You approve the title and description first, and you can disconnect at any time, which revokes the stored token.
- How long does a clip take?
- Most of the wait is downloading and transcribing the source, so it scales with the length of the video rather than the number of clips. A short video is minutes; a two-hour podcast takes longer. The job page shows each stage as it happens.
- Is there an API?
- Yes — a REST API with your own keys, plus an MCP server so an AI assistant can drive the same pipeline directly.
