OpenClip

What OpenClip is

OpenClip is an AI video editor for finding moments in recordings and preparing them for different channels. Its clipping tools detect potential viral moments and assign a virality score, while controls let users set clip length, remove filler and silence, and track moving objects. It can add animated captions in more than 30 languages and automatically reframe video to vertical 9:16. A recording can also become social posts, blog posts, newsletters, or SEO drafts. The AI UGC Studio includes 28 AI creators, which users can shape by look, age, energy, wardrobe, and accent. OpenClip connects to Claude, ChatGPT, and AI agents through MCP. Pro adds social calendar publishing to X, Instagram Reels, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. The Business plan includes an Integration API for Discord bots, Telegram bots, and enterprise applications, plus SSO, audit logs, and custom data-retention policies. OpenClip says workspace uploads, transcripts, and generated clips are private to that workspace and are not used to train external models. It is available through the web and API, with a free plan, paid plans from $14.99/mo, and a 3-day trial.

Who it suits

Starter is aimed at individual creators, while Pro suits professional creators, marketers, and teams that need social calendar publishing. Business is intended for brands and teams that run on video and need API access, custom integrations, or enterprise security features.

Limits

The free plan allows 10 runs per day, 200 MB inputs, and input durations up to 10 minutes; visual outputs carry a watermark. Starter includes 150 credits per month but has no team seats, social calendar publishing, or custom fonts.

Getting started

1. Open the OpenClip website.
2. Use the web app or API platform.
3. Start with the free plan or choose a paid plan from $14.99/mo.
4. Use the 3-day trial to try a paid plan.
5. For the Integration API, use Business-plan onboarding.

Verdict

Choose OpenClip if you want video clipping, captioning, and repurposing in one editor, with plans for individual creators through video-focused teams. Look elsewhere if you need team seats or social calendar publishing on Starter, or want visual outputs without a watermark on the free plan.
