Fuck OpusClip. 
 ... because good video clips shouldn't come with ugly watermarks or platform lock-in.
---
SupoClip is an open-source, AI-powered video clipping tool. Give it a long video — a podcast, a talk, a stream VOD — and it finds the most viral-worthy moments, scores them, and renders them as vertical 9:16 clips with face-centered cropping, word-synced subtitles, hook titles, and optional B-roll. Run it yourself, customize it, inspect it — or use the hosted version and skip the setup.
**See it first:** watch real clips SupoClip generated from a long-form interview, or follow the self-hosting tutorial to run it on your own machine.
## Ways to Use SupoClip
| Option | Details |
|---|---|
| **Hosted web app** | www.supoclip.com — no infrastructure to run |
| **iOS app** | SupoClip on the App Store — the same hosted pipeline, from your iPhone |
| **Self-host** | Docker Compose setup below, or the step-by-step self-hosting tutorial — AGPL-3.0, unlimited usage on your own hardware |
| **MCP server** | `mcp/` — use SupoClip from Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients |
| **REST API** | API keys from `/settings/api-keys` authenticate the backend directly — see the API reference |
## Why SupoClip Exists
OpusClip is genuinely good at what it does — AI clip selection, accurate captions, virality scoring. But your usage is metered by plan, some exports carry platform branding, and your content and workflows live on their servers under their terms.
SupoClip gives you the same core pipeline without the leash:
- **Self-hostable** — run it on your own hardware, process as much as it can handle
- **No watermarks** — your content stays yours
- **Open source** — AGPL-3.0, full transparency, fork and extend it however you like
- **Hosted option** — when you'd rather not manage servers, the cloud version is there
## Features
- **AI clip selection** — an LLM (Gemini, GPT, Claude, or a local Ollama model) picks the 3–7 most clip-worthy segments from the transcript
- **Virality scoring** — every clip gets hook, engagement, value, and shareability scores
- **Smart vertical cropping** — face detection keeps the speaker centered in the 9:16 frame
- **Word-synced subtitles** — AssemblyAI word-level timestamps, custom fonts, caption templates with animation styles
- **Hook titles** — an AI-written headline burned into the top of each clip's opening seconds
- **B-roll & transitions** — optional Pexels stock footage overlays and transition effects
- **Built-in editor** — trim, split, and merge clips, then export with platform presets (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)
- **Direct publishing** — connect your own YouTube, TikTok and Instagram accounts, then post or schedule clips from the task page
- **Performance loop** — views, likes, comments and shares flow back from each platform and steer future clip selection toward what works for your audience
- **Real-time progress** — live pipeline updates streamed to the browser while your video processes
