Clippin watches your YouTube channel and turns every upload into vertical clips: AI picks the best moments, keeps the subject in frame, writes captions, and burns in word-pop subtitles, then posts to TikTok, Reels & Shorts on a schedule. Or open the new Clip Editor and craft a clip by hand on a real timeline. All on your own PC.
Every clip renders in crisp 1080p, true 9:16, with the subject kept in frame and bold word-pop captions that light up word by word as they’re spoken — the retention trick the top faceless channels pay editors for, baked in and automatic.
Paste a YouTube channel, a single video URL, or a video file on your PC.
Clip count, length, resolution, subtitles, branding, music, and daily cadence.
AI finds and rates the best moments, frames the subject, and captions locally — everything renders on your PC in true 9:16.
Auto-post on a schedule, hold clips for your approval, or save them to a folder.
When you want full control, open the Clip Editor. Scrub the video on a waveform + filmstrip, mark exactly where each clip starts and ends, and shape every one by hand — with a live 9:16 preview of your framing, captions, and effects over the actual footage.
Bring your own AI — Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini (pay-as-you-go, typically pennies per video), or run it free and fully offline with a local Ollama model. Every feature falls back gracefully if it can't run.
Reads the video's transcript and clips the funniest, most surprising, most engaging moments — instead of blind sequential cuts.
Rates every clip's viral potential 0–100 with a one-line reason, so you post — or prioritize — the strongest cuts instead of guessing.
Aims the 9:16 crop at the subject — or turn on face tracking and the crop smoothly pans to follow them across the whole clip, so nobody drifts out of frame.
A distinct, hooky caption plus hashtags for every single clip — tuned to your niche, never repetitive.
Once your clips go live, Clippin automatically pulls the real views, likes, comments, and shares back from your posts — no spreadsheet, no checking each platform. Then it turns your own results into answers.
The viral “karaoke” look — bold fonts, ALL-CAPS, each word popping as it's spoken. On by default, styled your way.
Speech-to-text runs on your own PC, so captions work on any video — nothing is uploaded.
Auto color-emoji on keywords, punch-in zooms, and sound effects — the touches that make clips feel professionally edited.
Relevant stock cutaways dropped on keyword moments, captions on top — the way the top AI clippers do it.
Stack both people from one 16:9 frame — the clean interview & podcast layout, in one click.
Set a minimum viral score and only your strongest cuts auto-post; the rest wait for your review.
YouTube channels & links, watched folders, local files — even podcasts become captioned waveform videos.
Processing, files, database, and keys stay on your computer, with automatic daily backups.
Clips + captions land in a folder with naturally-paced posting times on the calendar — and at post time, each clip and its caption is delivered straight to your Telegram, ready to post natively from your phone.
Clippin spreads posts through the day and publishes them through your connected upload-post.com account.
