Features

Highlights Pulled from Full VODs

AutoClip works through the whole stream and keeps the moments that land cold — a play, a reaction, a bit that pays off inside 40 seconds — instead of the parts that only make sense if you watched live.

Vertical Format for Shorts

16:9 stream footage reframed to 9:16, with facecam split layouts when gameplay and the streamer both need to be visible. Subject stays centered as the shot moves.

Word-Synced Captions

Captions land in time with the commentary and stay legible over busy gameplay. Save a style to a brand kit and every clip matches.

Direct Upload to Shorts

Clips upload to your channel on a spaced schedule with drafted titles, descriptions, and hashtags you can edit before they go out.

How It Works

1

Add the Twitch channel or paste a VOD

Twitch is supported as a source directly. A YouTube re-upload of the same stream works too, if that's what you have.

2

AutoClip cuts the Shorts

You get around 9 clips from a typical video, each ranked with a 5-criterion breakdown. Per-video clip caps are 6 on Starter, 12 on Pro, 15 on Scale.

3

Shorts go up on your channel

Approve first or run it hands-off. Either way nothing needs to be downloaded and re-uploaded by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I clip Twitch streams for YouTube Shorts?

Add the Twitch channel in AutoClip, or paste a single VOD link. It handles the clipping, the vertical reframe, the captions, and the upload to your Shorts channel from there.

Can I clip every new Twitch stream automatically?

Yes. Monitored channels get picked up when a new VOD appears, usually within minutes, and go straight into clipping. Starter monitors 1 channel, Pro 3, Scale 10.

How many Shorts come out of one VOD?

Around 9 from a typical video, though a long stream with one good hour and three quiet ones will produce fewer usable ones than the count suggests. Per-video caps are 6 / 12 / 15 by plan.

Does it write titles and descriptions?

It drafts them for each Short. Editing the first line usually helps — a drafted title has no idea your audience already knows the running joke.

Can I run a multi-streamer Shorts channel?

Yes, up to 10 monitored channels on Scale. Be honest about volume: 10 channels producing daily VODs will move through credits fast, and 1200 credits per month on Scale is the ceiling.

What does it cost?

Starter $19.99/mo (200 credits, 1 monitored channel, watermark-free exports), Pro $39.99/mo (500 credits, 3 channels, brand kits, 31-language translation and dubbing), Scale $79.99/mo (1200 credits, 10 channels, 4K export). Twitch VODs bill by highlight rather than by minute — usually 35–90 credits per stream.
