AutoClip + TikTok
TikTok clips from long videos, on autopilot
AutoClip pulls the moments most likely to hold a viewer out of long YouTube, Twitch, and Kick videos, reframes them to 9:16, captions them word-by-word, and posts them to your TikTok on the schedule you set. A typical video is done in about 10–15 minutes.
How It Works
- 1Paste a YouTube, Twitch, or Kick URL — or connect a channel once and let new uploads come in on their own
- 2AutoClip scores each moment for how likely it is to hold attention and keeps the strongest ones
- 3Keepers get reframed to 9:16 and captioned word-by-word; a typical video finishes in about 10–15 minutes
- 4Publish straight to TikTok, queue clips on a spaced schedule, or download the MP4s and post them yourself
Key Benefits
- 9:16 reframing that keeps the speaker centered when the shot moves, so nobody's head drifts off frame
- Word-synced animated captions — karaoke, pop, and bounce styles, emoji included — for the people watching on mute
- Every clip gets a virality score with a transparent 5-criterion breakdown, so you pick what to post instead of guessing
- Around 9 clips from a typical video, capped per video by plan: 6 on Starter, 12 on Pro, 15 on Scale
Frequently Asked Questions
Does AutoClip post directly to TikTok?
Yes. Connect your TikTok account once and AutoClip publishes clips to it after processing — no downloading, no re-uploading. You can also space posts out on a schedule, or grab the MP4 and post manually if you'd rather write the caption in the app.
What aspect ratio does AutoClip use for TikTok?
9:16 vertical, TikTok's native shape. The crop follows the person talking rather than locking to the center of the frame, so a speaker who paces or a two-shot that cuts back and forth still lands in frame. Pro and Scale can also export 1:1, 16:9, and 4:5 from the same job if you're cross-posting.
Can I add TikTok-style captions with AutoClip?
Yes — captions are on by default, highlighted word by word as each one is spoken, in karaoke, pop, or bounce styles with emoji support. Save your font, color, and position choices to a brand kit and every future clip comes out matching. You can edit the caption text on the web app before export.
How many TikTok clips can I make from one YouTube video?
Around 9 from a typical video, depending on length and how much of it is actually usable. The per-video cap is 6 clips on Starter, 12 on Pro, and 15 on Scale. Monthly volume runs on credits — 200, 500, or 1200 — where 1 credit equals 1 minute of source video, so a 30-minute upload costs 30.
Is AutoClip legal for TikTok clip channels?
That depends on what you clip and where you are, and we're not going to pretend otherwise. Reframing, captioning, and cutting are edits, not a copyright shield — they don't stop a rightsholder's content-ID match or a takedown. The clippers who last either work from channels that want to be clipped, join creator or content-reward programs that grant permission, or clip material where their local fair-use or fair-dealing rules genuinely cover them. Check that before you build a channel on it.
