Long video to Shorts
Turn any long video into short clips
Short answer
Upload the video, up to 12 hours. EasyClip finds the moments that stand on their own and cuts each one from the original file. You get about 10 clips per hour of video, with a minimum of 5 per upload, each as an MP4 with a transcript and SRT file. More good moments can be added afterward as extras.
Not every recording fits a category. If it's long and has moments worth sharing, upload it and see what comes back.
Works with recordings from YouTube.

What you upload, what you get, what it costs
The rules are simple. One token per started 6 minutes of video, with a 30-second grace and a minimum of 5 tokens. One token is one included clip. A 1-hour video uses 10 tokens, so up to 10 included clips. The Starter pack (30 tokens for $10) covers it.
Each clip is cut from your original file, keeps its framing, and comes with a transcript and SRT file. Good moments beyond the included clips are listed as extras with a title, opening line, timestamp, and length. You can add them at 2 clips per token for 7 days after the job finishes.
We won't pad the batch with weak moments. If the recording has fewer good clips than included, the unused tokens go back to your balance.
Moments to look for
- Moments with a clear opening line
- Stories and explanations that finish
- Reactions and turning points
- Visible attempts and results
How it works
From one recording to clips you can post
Upload the whole thing
Upload one video. Files can be up to 12 hours and 8 GB. We count the length and include about 10 clips per hour, with a minimum of 5 per upload. You don't pick a number.
Add a note if you like
Tell us who watches and what they care about. It's optional, but it helps.
Download, then decide on extras
Download the clips as MP4s with transcripts and SRT files. Extras stay available for 7 days if you want more.
What it costs
A 1-hour recording uses 10 tokens: up to 10 clips, about 3 days at 3 posts a day. That’s $2.67 to $3.33 depending on the pack.
More good moments than that? Add them as extras, 2 per token, for 7 days. Unfilled slots come back as tokens. Pricing details
Good to know
- Clips keep the framing you uploaded. There’s no automatic vertical crop yet.
- Each clip comes with a transcript and an SRT file. Captions aren’t burned in.
- It watches and listens, so moments without talking count. Clear speech is still the easiest to find and check.
Common questions about turning long videos into clips
How long can the video be?
Up to 12 hours and 8 GB per upload. Longer or larger files are rejected, so re-encode or split them first. A long 1080p60 stream recording can pass 8 GB well before 12 hours.
How much does it cost per video?
A 1-hour video uses 10 tokens, so up to 10 included clips. The Starter pack (30 tokens for $10) covers it. A 12-minute video uses the 5-token minimum. There's no subscription and tokens don't expire.
Do I get vertical clips and captions?
Not yet. EasyClip cuts from your original file and keeps its framing, so a 16:9 recording comes back as 16:9. If you want a facecam-over-gameplay vertical layout, you'll still need to crop it in your editor for now. Each clip comes with an SRT caption file and a transcript. Captions aren't burned into the video, so upload the SRT to the platform or import it into your editor and style it there.
Does it work if nobody talks in the video?
Yes. EasyClip watches the picture and listens to the sound, so an action or a sound can carry a clip. Talking is still the most reliable signal, so a quiet video often has fewer good moments, and the slots we can't fill come back as tokens.
