Try it free — no signup

Paste a YouTube link or transcript and Clipflow will pull the moments worth turning into short clips clips — the gist + the clip-worthy beats, in seconds.

Works with any public YouTube video that has captions. No signup, no API key.

Whatever the source — a conference talk, an interview, a livestream, a course lesson — the problem of going long-video → shorts is identical: the postable moments are a small fraction of the runtime, and they have to be reframed and captioned to survive a vertical feed. Clipflow treats that as one repeatable pass regardless of where the footage came from.

How it works

long video in, short clips out.

  4. 04Publish across platformsPush or schedule the batch to TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and LinkedIn from one queue.

What you get

Why Clipflow

Source-agnostic

Talk, interview, stream, or lesson — the same pass finds the moments worth posting and finishes them.

Shortlist, not a timeline

You approve the clips Clipflow proposes instead of scrubbing the full runtime to find them.

Finished for the feed

Reframe, captions, and hooks are done per clip so each one survives a vertical feed.
