Clipai
ClipAI is an AI-powered platform that transforms long-form videos into engaging short clips optimized for social media. It automatically analyzes videos, detects the most compelling moments, and scores each clip based on virality factors like hook strength, emotional pull, and clarity. The platform generates karaoke-style or bold captions in 99 languages, auto-reframes clips to vertical 9:16 format, and can track speakers. Users can then schedule posts to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Threads, and Bluesky from a unified calendar, with tracked links to monitor real views and engagement. A unique closed-loop analytics system compares AI virality predictions against actual view counts, making it the only score that must be accurate after posting. The tool also ships an MCP server, allowing AI agents like Claude to execute the full workflow via natural language commands.

Problem solved
Content creators, social media managers, and brands struggle to manually sift through long videos to find shareable moments, edit them into platform-appropriate formats, caption them, and schedule posts—a time-consuming process that often relies on guesswork.

Its closed-loop validation ensures that predictions are grounded in real performance, helping users consistently produce high-impact shorts.
