What it is
OpusClip takes a long video, picks out the moments most likely to work as short clips, reframes them vertically and adds animated captions. You can then edit the clips and publish them to social platforms from the same web app, which is also available on iOS. It supports videos in English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese and more than 20 other languages, and offers an API and MCP server for automation.
It suits creators and marketers with a steady supply of long-form video. The free plan processes at regular speed, adds a watermark to caption templates and deletes uploads after 3 days. Starter costs $15 a month for watermark-free exports, and Pro at $29 adds unlimited export retention and 100GB of storage.
