What isn't working
Patterns we've seen from dozens of switchers. If any of these sound familiar, Clipflow probably solves them.
What Clipflow does instead
Vertical short-form + horizontal long-form from one video recording
REASON 01
Native scheduler covers every platform Recast doesn’t auto-publish to
REASON 02
Bundled AI keeps per-clip costs predictable on heavy weeks
REASON 03

Common questions
Real questions from people switching to Clipflow. No spin — if Recast Studio is the better tool for a specific job, we say so.
No. There is no waveform or audiogram renderer in Clipflow — clips are cut out of a video recording, so an audio-only episode gets a transcript, posts and subtitles but no vertical video. If audiograms are the job, Recast is the better tool and we would rather say so here than after you have uploaded an episode.
On the transcript, yes: the pipeline is OpenAI Whisper, bundled into every plan, so word-level accuracy on speech matches Recast on the same file, and clip selection is hook-scored rather than just timestamp-picked. The clip itself is cut from the video recording of the episode.
Yes. Connect each platform once in /settings/channels; scheduled posts publish automatically with platform-aware caption trim and best-time hints.
Recast Studio Pro is around $20-40/mo. Clipflow Creator is $23/mo (yearly), Agency $159/mo. The Agency plan replaces Recast + a scheduler + a client portal for agencies handling multiple podcast brands.
