See it in action

Watch each tool work, in 30 seconds.

No talking heads. No promo voiceover. Just the actual app producing the actual output — uncut.

AutoClip

Drop a 90-min podcast and watch our AI surface the 5 most viral takes, each with a hook title and burned-in captions.

How it works

Under the hood, in 5 steps.

The pipeline isn't magic. It's a tightly tuned AI stack glued together with opinionated defaults so you don't have to think about any of it.

  1. 01

    Upload or paste a URL

    MP4, MOV, WebM up to 1GB. Or paste a TikTok / X / Instagram URL and we pull it in 1080p. Up to 90 minutes for AutoClip.

    Word-by-word transcription with millisecond timestamps.
  2. 02

    Our AI finds the viral moments

    Two-pass detector: generate 8 candidates, then self-critique to pick the strongest with topic diversity. Tuned per content type with viral-hook formulas.

    Each moment scored 0–100. Non-overlapping by design.
  3. 03

    Pick a style — or trust the defaults

    20 caption styles, 4 layouts, 10 background loops, optional title. Defaults already tuned for max retention on each platform.

    Edit the transcript inline before render if our AI missed a name.
  4. 04

    Studio render to 1080×1920

    Captions burned in with sticky timing. EBU R128 loudness normalized to −16 LUFS. H.264 High @ CRF 18.

    Avg render time: 30 seconds for a 1-min clip.
  5. 05

    Download and post

    Signed URL valid 24h. Drop the MP4 straight into TikTok, Reels, Shorts, or your scheduler. No watermark on Clipper plan and up.

    Original input stays in your account for re-renders.
The platform in numbers

No fluff. Just output.

The creator workflow, perfected.

"I dropped a 72-minute podcast on a Tuesday and posted 5 shorts by Wednesday morning. One hit 380K views. cutsy is now the only tool in my publishing flow."

Marcus T.
Host · The Operator Tape
"The line-mode captions plus the sticky timing are the cleanest I've seen. My retention on TikTok went from 22% to 41% on the first week of using it."
L
Lina K.
Creator · 480k on TikTok
"I run a 4-person agency and we ship ~80 client cuts a week. cutsy's URL import + no-watermark on Clipper plan made my Fridays an hour shorter."

Founder · Reel Theory Agency
"AutoClip caught a quote I would have edited out manually. It scored 92/100 and ended up being my best Reel of the month. The AI knows."

FAQ

Common questions

Real answers to what creators ask before signing up.

We focus on the two workflows creators actually publish daily — AutoClip (long → short) and the Caption Editor — and ship them with the highest-quality defaults. We don't pad the suite with token-burning features. Same entry price as Crayo ($13), no watermark on the Clipper plan, transparent 1-credit-per-minute pricing.
One minute of input video. A 12-minute podcast = 12 credits for AutoClip (which produces up to 5 shorts from that input). A 30-second clip = 1 credit through the Caption Editor. Audio tools (Speech Enhancer, Vocal Remover) and the Brainstormer are free.
Yes. We use word-level timestamps and 'sticky' caption timing — each word (or 3-word chunk in Line mode) stays on screen until the next one begins, so there's never a gap. Default for AutoClip is Line mode which is comfortably readable even at podcast pace.
Our transcription engine handles 90+ languages with automatic detection. The AutoClip detector reasons in any language. Captions render in your source language as-is. We tested heavily in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German.
Inside our private cloud with signed URLs. Inputs and outputs are private to your account. URLs are valid for 1 hour by default; download the MP4 to your machine for permanent storage.
Yes. Cancel from /billing in two clicks via the Stripe Customer Portal. Your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period — no proration tricks, no surprise charges.
Not yet — that's on the roadmap for Q3 2026. For now, the Pro plan (250 credits) is the workhorse for agencies. Watermark is off, render quality is the same as Hobby and Clipper.
TikTok, X (Twitter), and Instagram work reliably. YouTube blocks our server's IP from datacenter ranges — a known issue across the industry. Workaround: download manually from YouTube and use Upload File.
Indefinitely for now, but we may add retention policies on the free tier. Always export your final MP4 to your own device or cloud.
Credits are refunded automatically. The job is marked failed with the error visible in the UI. Common causes: source file has no audio, the decoder can't read a corrupt codec, or the AutoClip detector can't find clear moments in the input.
