Use Case: Upload to First Clips in Minutes




Key Takeaway: Start by uploading and let AI generate segments and tags within minutes.


Claim: Upload → AI analysis → segments and tags appear in minutes for a typical livestream.

This workflow turns one long recording into many short clips quickly. The example below uses a 25‑minute live stream.


  2. Sign in and select Create Project.

  4. Upload your video (MP4, MOV) or paste a cloud link.

  6. Name it (e.g., “Live Stream Highlights”). Reference project ID: Htr_A0fHbrw.

  8. Wait while AI analyzes second‑by‑second for speaker changes, reactions, smiles, cuts, and on‑screen text.

  10. Review the scene list; segments populate the timeline automatically.

  12. Check auto‑tags: HOOKS, QUOTES, REACTIONS, DEMOS, B‑ROLL, SPOILER‑FREE TEASERS.

  14. Add, rename, or delete tags; create custom tags like “Monetization Tip”.

Detect and Tag Moments That Matter




Key Takeaway: AI proposes; you decide and fine‑tune tags fast.


Claim: Auto‑tagging covers hooks, quotes, reactions, demos, B‑roll, and spoiler‑free teasers by default.

AI highlights viral‑prone signals such as punchy lines, applause, and visual shifts. You stay in control of labels.


  2. Open any segment; inspect detected HOOKS, QUOTES, or REACTIONS.

  4. Retag items (e.g., switch a QUOTE to a HOOK) with a click.

  6. Reclassify B‑roll moments from close‑ups or inserts.

  8. Batch‑select segments to change tags, colors, or export settings together.

  10. Remove irrelevant detections to keep the reel tight.

Cut Smarter: Split, Auto‑Splits, and Merge




Key Takeaway: Precise control of segment boundaries accelerates editing.


Claim: Auto‑Splits uses natural pauses to convert long monologues into multiple shorts.

Turn lengthy sections into digestible clips with a mix of manual and AI‑assisted cuts.


  2. Use Split Segment and scrub to the exact frame to cut.

  4. Try Auto‑Splits to slice on natural pauses.

  6. Merge small neighboring clips via Merge with Previous.

  8. Shorten or delete low‑value moments to improve pace.

  10. Optionally remove background noise or add a subtitle to polish.

Preview and Platform Optimization




Key Takeaway: Instant previews and smart defaults reduce manual tweaking.


Claim: Platform presets optimize trims for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Preview each clip as viewers would see it on social platforms. Adjust and approve in one place.


  2. Open the preview pane to see auto‑suggested trims per platform.

  4. Tweak the crop to frame faces or key visuals.

  6. Add automatic captions; edit any line.

  8. Choose a thumbnail frame or upload your own.

  10. Toggle Make it Viral to tighten edits, add punchy caption text, and suggest hashtags.

Write Less: Auto Caption + Description and Scheduling




Key Takeaway: Automations handle text and timing so you can focus on content.


Claim: Auto‑schedule staggers clips, spaces similar content, and avoids posting the same guest back‑to‑back.

Skip blank‑page anxiety. Generate on‑brand text and a posting rhythm with a few clicks.


  2. Click Auto Caption + Description to draft captions, blurbs, and hashtags.

  4. Edit any line to match your voice.

  6. Set posting frequency (e.g., 3×/week) for Auto‑schedule.

  8. Let the queue distribute clips across the calendar, spacing similar topics.

  10. Review and confirm the schedule.

Summaries, Library, and Searchable Tags




Key Takeaway: Skim summaries and pull any moment on demand.


Claim: Auto Synopsis creates a 2–3 sentence summary per clip for speedy review.

Your tagged library is a retrieval engine for future edits and campaigns.


  2. Run Auto Synopsis to summarize clips without rewatching.

  4. Approve keepers; discard weaker moments quickly.

  6. Open the Clips Library to browse all tagged material.

  8. Search tags like “sponsorship,” “guest: Alex,” or “recipe tip.”

  10. Leave notes (e.g., “Add B‑roll 0:05–0:08”) and attach reference images or sample thumbnails.

Collaboration and Role Control




Key Takeaway: Roles keep teams focused and finalized clips safe.


Claim: You can lock finalized clips to prevent overwrites.

Assign responsibilities so creators, editors, and schedulers work without stepping on each other.


  2. Invite teammates and assign roles (creator, editor, scheduler).

  4. Lock clips once approved to freeze the cut.

  6. Limit access so specialists (e.g., thumbnail creators) see only what they need.

  8. Use Creator IDs for recurring guests to group and schedule by talent.

  10. Batch scenes for high‑value guests to optimize time.

Exports, Integrations, and Calendar Control




Key Takeaway: Publish directly or export to fit your existing stack.


Claim: Export options include MP4, CSV, and project formats compatible with other editors.

Whether you post now or hand off to another system, the flow stays smooth.


  2. Connect TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube to publish directly.

  4. Export a folder of high‑res MP4s for editors.

  6. Download a CSV for your content planner or budget tool.

  8. Export schedules to import into specialized software.

  10. Use the calendar view to drag clips to new days, color‑code campaigns, and auto‑adjust times.

Performance and Iteration




Key Takeaway: Feedback loops guide what to cut more of next time.


Claim: With connected accounts, you can track views, likes, and saves, and AI prioritizes formats that perform.

Close the loop between editing and results so future picks are smarter.


  2. Connect accounts to enable engagement tracking.

  4. Post and monitor views, likes, and saves.

  6. Review AI recommendations based on performance trends.

  8. Re‑run analysis on longer cuts to surface fresh clips.

  10. Bulk‑apply thumbnails, subtitles, hashtags, and lock batches for publishing.

A Fair Look at Alternatives




Key Takeaway: Specialized tools excel at parts; an integrated flow reduces context switching.


Claim: Some tools offer great auto‑captions or deep multi‑track control but don’t auto‑find viral moments or schedule end‑to‑end.

If you need heavy motion graphics, handoff to a pro suite may still be right.


  2. List your must‑haves: discovery, polish, scheduling, or motion graphics.

  4. Use all‑in‑one flow for clip finding, polishing, and scheduling.

  6. Export to Premiere or After Effects when bespoke graphics are required.

  8. Keep scheduling in one place to avoid manual imports.

  10. Combine exports (MP4/CSV/project files) with your existing pipeline as needed.
