Add a prompt like “the goal in the second half” or “where the guest starts laughing”. ClipAny reads the transcript and looks at frames sampled from the video, so sports, gameplay and vlogs without much talking turn into clips too. How good they are depends on the footage.
Part of the invite-only beta: free, 60 minutes a month. Choose Visual or Auto as the clip mode on a new project.
Example creators and quotes. The names, numbers and teams shown are fictional until real customer stories exist.
Visual analysis
Up to 60 frames sampled across the video go to a vision model together with any speech, and scene cuts mark where a clip can start and end. A silent drone shot or a rally can rank as high as a punchline. The frames are snapshots a few seconds apart, so very short moments can slip through.
Prompt-based clipping
“The first goal”, “every time the dog appears”, “the part where she changes her mind”: add an optional focus prompt and ClipAny prefers the moments whose frames or words match it, while still ranking them on how well they work as a clip. It is a preference, not a frame-exact search.
ReframeAny included
Pick 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 per project. The crop follows the face in the shot (the person speaking when there are several) and stays centered when there is none, which is what most gameplay and drone footage gets. Following players, balls and other objects comes after the beta.
Clip mode
Auto reads the transcript and switches to the frames when a video has little speech. Speech uses the transcript only, Visual always looks at the frames. Clip length, clip count, format, caption style and the prompt are set on the same form.
Six jobs ClipAny does every day. Each one starts with a link and a sentence.
Skip the scrubbing. Name the scene in the focus prompt and ClipAny prefers the stretches that match it.
Set three clips under a minute and get the strongest moments of an episode to point people to the full video.
Travel footage, gameplay, cooking, drone shots: in Visual mode ClipAny scores sampled frames, so silence is not a problem. Clips without speech come without captions.
Up to 12 ranked clips from a one-hour recording, each one its own moment. Joining them into a single reel comes after the beta.
Pick clips under a minute for Shorts, or one to five minutes for chapters in the feed.
Today the beta delivers 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 and 16:9 clips with the crop following the person speaking. Subject tracking comes after the beta, with no second pass needed.
Most clipping tools transcribe the audio and look for complete sentences. That works for podcasts and little else.
