Managing and editing video clips

Answer

Turn any video into short clips for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts in no time. You can generate clips automatically from an existing video, or upload a short video yourself. On the Video Clips page you review, approve, edit, and publish them. This feature is new and still in beta.

Viewing clips

1. Go to Content Engine > Video Clips.
2. Your clips are grouped per source video. Open a group to see its clips.
3. Each clip shows a preview, the hook, the source video, and the duration.

Generating clips automatically

1. If a source video has no clips yet, click Generate clips.
2. The AI finds the strongest moments and proposes clips.
3. The clips are then rendered cinematically. You can keep working in the meantime.

Uploading a short clip yourself

Already have a short video? Upload it directly:

1. Click Upload clip at the top right.
2. Choose your video file (MP4, MOV, or WebM) and give the clip a title.
3. Set the Source language: the language spoken in the video. This makes the subtitles more accurate.
4. Leave Enhance audio on for noise reduction, a more even volume, and clearer speech.
5. The whole video is processed as one clip: transcription, subtitles, and visuals are added automatically.

Reviewing clips

At the top you filter by status: All, Suggested, Approved, Rejected, or Published. From the menu (three dots) on a clip you can approve, reject, or delete it, download the original, or open the clip in Stream.

Publishing to your website

Each clip has two switches:

• Website: place the clip on your site under /clips.
• Overview: show or hide the clip in the clips list on your site.

Correcting subtitles

Sometimes speech recognition mishears a name or technical term. To fix it quickly:

1. Click the pencil next to Subtitles below the clip.
2. Correct the misheard words. This works best for names, brand names, and technical terms.
3. Click Save.

To polish word by word, adjust timing, or trim the start and end of a clip, use Fine-tuning subtitles. That is covered in a separate article.

Re-rendering

After correcting, re-render the clip with Re-render. The fast renderer delivers crisp subtitles, a centered hook, and an end CTA. Rendering takes a few minutes and the status updates itself.

Motion

With the fast renderer you choose how much motion your clip gets:

• Off: a calm, still image.
• Subtle (recommended): a gentle zoom with a light word pop.
• Dynamic: subtle motion with a few zoom moments on the beat.

Thumbnails

Choose a Thumbnail style for your posts: Minimal, Bold (accent color), Dark editorial, Signature, or Magazine. Generate a style per clip or regenerate all thumbnails at once. With the thumbnail strip you pick a frame from the clip yourself.

Copying captions

Below each clip you find ready-made texts with a copy button: a short Thumbnail text and separate captions for Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn.

Downloading and sharing

• Click Download 9:16 for the vertical clip as MP4.
• From the menu you can download the original or open the clip in Stream.

Tips

• Start with Generate clips on your best video and approve the strongest clips.
• Correct names and technical terms in the subtitles first, then re-render.
• Published clips automatically appear in your navigation, sitemap, and llms.txt, great for discoverability.
