Highlights8
  • EmotionalViral score: exceptional1:28:24 – 1:29:27

    The 500 HP grandma picks one person to follow, and everyone else leaves

    It locks onto a single target and ignores the rest of the squad. She spends the next minute asking, with decreasing calm, why it has to be her.

  • PanicViral score: strong24:03 – 25:21

    Works out that the nun tracks noise, then refuses to leave Natalia's side

    The team is still arguing about whether the thing can be killed when it starts moving toward the shouting. Her plan from that point on is to stand exactly where Natalia is standing.

  • DiscoveryViral score: strong53:05 – 54:17

    Somebody says the duck is safe to touch, and it very much is not

    The warning comes a beat too late. The duck one-shots on contact, and the rest of the run is spent giving it a wide berth.

Who it's for

Built for streamers who cut their own VODs

Streamers

Find the moments worth posting

Search the stream transcript, click a line to jump the timeline, and take the AI suggestions worth keeping — without rewatching the whole VOD.

Podcasters

Trim podcasts and long uploads

The same searchable transcript and synced timeline work on a multi-hour interview or a long-form YouTube upload. Hand the result over as an FCPXML timeline.

Editors

Review before you edit

Open the project, mark candidate cuts on a searchable timeline, then hand off FCPXML or a CapCut draft — Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve open with the ranges already laid out.

The handoff

Finish in your own editor

In the desktop app: ClipEZ is the review and rough-cut step in front of your editor. Once you've picked the moments worth keeping, hand them off in the format your editor expects and finish in Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere, or CapCut.

Read from each vendor's own pricing and help pages on 1 August 2026. "Not listed" means their pages don't mention it, not that it can't be done. Opus Clip's pricing page does advertise Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve export on its Pro plan, and bills one credit per minute of source video you import.
