Your best clips are buried inside hours of footage.
Every stream has funny reactions, clutch plays, mistakes, chat moments, story beats. Finding them usually means rewatching the VOD or hoping someone remembered the timestamp.

- Rewatch hours of footage
- Scrub manually with no labels
- Guess timestamps from memory

- Spend editing time searching
with ClipEZfaster

The workflow
From VOD to a list of cuts.

Search the transcript like text, click any line to jump on the timeline, take or ignore the AI picks.
- 04Cut & export
Mark cuts from text or timeline, then export MP4 or hand off to DaVinci, Premiere, Final Cut, CapCut, YouTube.

Who uses ClipEZ.
for Streamerslong VOD → short list of cuts
Find the moments worth posting.

Built for the streamer who edits their own clips between streams.
for Creatorspodcast / interview / lecture
Trim podcasts and long uploads.
Use the searchable transcript and synced timeline to find the right beats in a multi-hour interview or solo upload, then hand a clean FCPXML to your editor.
Same workspace, different content shape — works on any long video.
for Editorsless scrubbing in DaVinci
Review before you edit.
Open the project, mark candidate cuts on a searchable timeline, hand off the FCPXML or CapCut JSON — your NLE opens with the ranges already set.
The discovery step belongs upstream of your real editor.
The handoff
Finish in your own editor.
ClipEZ is the review and rough-cut step that comes before your editor. Once you've picked the moments worth keeping, hand them off in whatever format your editor expects.
