Explain it simply
OpusClip watches a long video, like a podcast or webinar, and cuts it into short captioned clips for TikTok, Shorts and Reels. You can type what to look for, such as the best audience question, and a person picks the clips worth posting.
What was done
The studio uploads or links each long episode to OpusClip. ClipAnything takes a typed prompt (for example "Find the most social-worthy Q&A"), cuts clips of up to 15 minutes, adds captions and reframes to 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9. A person picks the best clips before posting.
How it went
The studio is quoted: "it gives me 20 to 30 shorts that I can work with" and "I've been able to increase output by 80%." No time or money figure is given.
