Opus Clip is the one AI clipper I've stopped reflexively rolling my eyes at. Drop in a 90-minute interview, get back ten or so candidates that aren't embarrassing.
The ranking is smarter than the competition. It actually weighs whether the clip starts on a thought, ends on a payoff, and has anything resembling a hook. That used to be a unicorn.
You will still re-cut, re-caption, and re-frame. But it gets you from blank canvas to ten drafts in the time it took to make one. That's the whole point.
Repurposing long-form into short-form — and anyone who wants Opus Clip to do the heavy lifting in this category.
