For social media managers

Short-form video for every brand you manage, in each one's style

Paste a brand's YouTube links or upload its recordings. Clyper turns each video into vertical clips that frame the speaker, open on their hook and caption every word in that brand's saved style, up to 30 a video, with no watermark. You review, fix and schedule; on Studio, 10 videos go in at once.

The part of the job Clyper takes off your plate

Short-form video is the content every brand wants more of and the slowest to make. The raw material usually exists: a founder's podcast appearance, a webinar, a product walkthrough, a talk, the brand's YouTube channel. What's missing is the hours to turn it into clips. Clyper does that part:

Finds the moments in each video that stand alone, from the whole transcript.
Cuts them on whole sentences, 30 from an hour of video if you want them.
Frames the speaker in 9:16, following whoever's talking; a presenter in the corner of a slide can go on top of it.
Captions every word in the brand's style, above the text each app shows at the bottom.
Ranks them by hook score, so you know which clip to schedule first.

The strategy, the copy, the approvals and the posting stay yours, as they should.

Your hours, by hand and with Clyper

Minutes a clip takes, in the clipping rate calculator's example: assumed, not measured
Step	By hand	With Clyper
Finding the moment	10 min	Done for you
Cutting and framing	8 min	Done for you
Captions	7 min	Done for you
Revisions	3 min	3 min, the same
Posting	2 min	2 min, the same
Checking and fixing Clyper's clip		6 min
A clip	30 min	11 min

At 30 clips a month for a brand, that's 15 hours by hand against 6 with Clyper. Put in your own minutes in the clipping rate calculator. If you outsource clips instead, two short-form editing listings on Contra started at $40 and $50 a video when we checked on October 27, 2026; on Studio billed yearly, a clip comes to about $0.05 in credits.

Every brand's look, saved once

On Pro and Studio, the brand kit keeps up to 10 caption styles. Each starts from one of Clyper's 5 animated styles and sets its font, the colors of the text, accent, outline and headline box, the size, how high the captions sit and whether they're in capitals. Name them by brand, pick one when you start a video or a batch, and every clip in it matches. A clip keeps its look even if you change the style later.

Two honest limits: fonts come from Clyper's list of 6, so you can't upload a brand font, and Clyper doesn't add logos. The free watermark tool puts one on a clip in your browser.

Clips for every channel you run

TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts: the same 9:16 file posts on all three. See YouTube to TikTok, YouTube to Reels and AI Shorts generator.
Facebook Reels: clips of a brand's own videos count as original there; see YouTube to Facebook Reels.
LinkedIn: upload the clip itself, with LinkedIn's auto captions off: see how to post video on LinkedIn.
Square or 4:5 for the feed: Clyper makes 9:16 only; the free video resizer turns a clip into either.

Which plan fits your workload

A credit is a minute of video, however many clips you take, so the plan follows how much video you clip across all your brands. Studio is the one made for this: everything in Pro, plus bulk import and priority processing.

The smallest plan for each workload, clipping every video in full
Brands	Hour-long videos a month	Credits	Plan	Price	Clips, up to
1	4	240	Pro	$19 a month billed yearly	120
3	12	720	Studio	$48 a month billed yearly	360
5	20	1,200	Studio	$48 a month billed yearly	600
8	48	2,880	Studio 2×	$96 a month billed yearly	1440

Starter has one caption style and no brand kit or headlines, so it suits one brand at most. Bulk import takes YouTube links; uploads and Drive or Dropbox links go in one at a time. Compare plans on the pricing page.

What Clyper doesn't do

No team seats. An account signs in with one email address; share the downloaded MP4s the way you share files now.
No posting or scheduling. Download the clips and load them into your scheduler, or each app's own: see how to schedule TikToks, Reels and Shorts.
No integrations. Clyper takes uploads and YouTube, Twitch, Google Drive and Dropbox links, up to 4 hours at a time.

Clipping for many clients as an agency? Clyper for clipping agencies covers pricing your clips and margins; in-house at one company, Clyper for businesses.

What it costs

A credit is a minute of video, so a plan is how much video you can clip in a month, however many clips it makes.

Starter
$20/mo
200 minutes, about 100 clips
Pro
$19/mo yearly
600 minutes, about 300 clips
