SmartClip Web

Drop in a talk, a podcast, a stream or a long recording and it gives you back short vertical clips with bold karaoke captions - the whole line on screen, the word being spoken lit up as it is said.

It runs in your web browser and your video is never uploaded. The speech is transcribed on your own machine, the clips are rendered on your own machine, and nothing leaves it. The only thing fetched from the internet is the speech-recognition model, downloaded once on first use.

You choose how it cuts: the strongest moments only, or the whole video chopped back to back so you get every clip that fits. Lengths, aspect ratio, framing, caption style, size, position, colour and timing are all yours to set - five caption styles including karaoke and one-big-word, five fonts, and a highlight colour to match your brand.

Under each finished clip you get the things you would otherwise sit and write: suggested hooks, a title, ready-made captions for TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, and hashtags - all built from the words actually spoken in that clip.

Comes with a three-page setup guide: the settings that change the result, how to get an MP4 rather than a WebM, what to do when something goes wrong, and a plain list of what the tool does not do.
