How it works
One upload. A ranked shortlist. Done before lunch.
The bottleneck was never the cutting — it was knowing which sixty seconds out of ninety minutes deserved them. Snipcraft answers that first.
- 01
Drop in your long-form video
Paste a YouTube link or upload the raw file — a two-hour podcast, a webinar, a livestream VOD. Snipcraft transcribes, diarizes speakers and maps the full narrative arc.
- 02
SnipScore ranks every candidate
Our proprietary model scores each moment on hook strength, payoff, pacing and platform fit — before a single frame is rendered. You edit the winners, not the whole tape.
- 03
Export publish-ready clips
Auto-reframed 9:16, captions burned in with your brand kit, hooks and titles written per platform. Download or schedule straight to TikTok, Reels, Shorts and LinkedIn.
What you get
Everything downstream of a great clip — automated.
Clipping, captioning and optimization in one pass, so you can stay on the part only you can do: the message.
Adaptive
It learns from your channel
Connect your accounts and every published clip feeds back into a per-channel model. Month three predicts your audience far better than month one.
Speaker-aware reframing
Multi-speaker tracking keeps the right face in frame through cross-talk, cutaways and B-roll — with manual keyframe override when you want the final say.
Captions that hold attention
Word-level timing, animated emphasis on the punchline, and a caption editor that fixes names and jargon once and remembers them forever.
Locked brand kits
Fonts, colors, safe zones, intro stingers and lower thirds — defined once, enforced on every export so a team of five ships one consistent look.
Built for a real back catalog
Queue an entire season overnight. Batch processing, folder rules and bulk export turn 200 archived episodes into a year of short-form in a weekend.
Positioning
Where Snipcraft sits.
Between $20 DIY clippers and $1,000/mo agencies. We own the model instead of renting one — which is exactly the gap the current tools leave open.
| Capability | Snipcraft | OpusClip · Vizard · Descript |
|---|---|---|
| Virality score trained in-house (not a third-party wrapper) | Varies | |
| Score shown before render — review, then spend credits | Varies | |
| Per-channel retraining on your published results | Varies | |
| Season-scale batch queue for back catalogs | Varies | |
| Brand kit locked across a whole team | Varies | |
| Priced between DIY tools and full agencies | Varies |

Social proof
What early users say.
“We used to pull three clips a week and guess. Snipcraft surfaced a 94 out of a two-hour episode we'd nearly shelved — it became our best-performing short of the quarter.”
“The score is the whole product for me. I stopped rendering forty clips hoping one lands. I render the four the model believes in and spend the rest of my time on the show.”
“Our whole back catalog went through the batch queue in one weekend. Brand kit locked, captions on-brand, nothing for me to police. It replaced a freelance editor line item.”

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What actually makes SnipScore different from other AI clippers?
Most tools are a thin layer over a general-purpose model: they find talking points and cut. SnipScore is a purpose-built virality-prediction model trained in-house on short-form performance outcomes. It returns a calibrated 0–100 score with the specific reason a moment works — hook strength, payoff timing, emotional swing, platform fit — before you spend a render credit.
How is that different from OpusClip, Vizard or Descript?
Descript is a full editor; OpusClip and Vizard are fast clippers. Snipcraft sits deliberately in the middle: prediction first, editing second. You get a ranked shortlist you can trust, a model that adapts to your channel specifically, and batch tooling built for people with a real back catalog rather than a one-off upload.
Which platforms and formats do you support?
Upload MP4/MOV directly or paste a YouTube, Vimeo or podcast RSS link. Exports come out as 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn and X.
Do I keep editorial control?
Always. SnipScore ranks; you decide. Every clip opens in an editor where you can nudge in and out points, rewrite the hook, adjust captions and override the reframe keyframes. Nothing publishes without your approval.
Who is Snipcraft built for?
Podcasters, YouTubers and US businesses producing long-form video every week — the people for whom $20 DIY tools are too shallow and a $1,000/mo agency retainer is too heavy.
What happens when I join the waitlist?
You'll get an email when your seat opens, plus a founding-member rate locked for twelve months. No card required to hold your place, and you can leave the list from any email we send.
Your best clip is already in your back catalog.
Join the waitlist and we'll score your first three hours of video free the day your seat opens.
