YouTube clip maker for every channel.

It depends on what you post. If your videos are mostly talking, teaching, reviewing, or commentary, reap is a strong fit: a YouTube clip maker that turns a long video into TikToks, Reels, and YouTube Shorts by finding the standalone moments, then captioning, reframing, and scheduling them. If you need a full timeline editor for the long video itself, or your footage has no speech, a traditional editor fits better.

Paste the YouTube link, or upload the file, and reap returns candidate clips cut for vertical and captioned, or you describe the moments you want. Paid plans take sources up to 180 minutes; uploads go up to 5 GB on Free and 10 GB on paid plans. Turning it into short videos for every platform is then trimming, approving, and posting.

Yes. Every clip opens in reap's editor: adjust the start and end in the transcript, fix words, cut sections, restyle captions, change the framing, and add text, assets, or B-roll before anything is exported or scheduled. It is a clip editor, not a full timeline editor for the long video.

Yes. Captions are generated in 100+ languages with word-level timing, and paid plans include 50+ animated presets with keyword highlighting. Save a caption style to a brand template and it applies to the clips you create after that. Expect to fix the odd name or product term; correcting the transcript fixes the captions too.

Yes, as a starting crop you check. Speaker and face tracking keep whoever is talking in frame when landscape footage becomes a 9:16 clip. Paid plans output 9:16, 16:9, and 1:1 from one source; the free plan outputs 9:16. You can always adjust the framing by hand before export.

reap publishes to TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook, and LinkedIn on Creator, and adds X on Studio. Pick the finished clips, choose connected accounts, and place posts on a week or month calendar, one at a time or in bulk. You can also export each clip as an MP4 and post it yourself.

Mostly, if someone is talking. As a short video maker, reap works on long recordings you already have: talking-head videos, tutorials, reviews, commentary, interviews, vlogs, and streams. Footage with no speech is the weak case, and there is no fixed number of clips per video. reap does not record or livestream, so the camera, screen recorder, or streaming setup stays yours.

Yes. reap's YouTube clip maker is free to try: the free plan includes 1 hour of processing, with 720p, watermarked 9:16 exports, and the MCP server is included on every plan, including Free. Paid plans start at $9.99/mo, remove the watermark, and add 16:9 and 1:1 formats, 50+ animated caption presets, and the content calendar scheduler.
