Recapo.ai is an AI-powered video editing platform designed to transform long videos into engaging short-form content. Users can upload footage in various formats (MP4, MOV, etc., up to 6GB) and leverage AI to generate recap scripts, highlight clips, subtitles, voiceover drafts, and optimized covers. The platform supports specific editing apps for Film & TV, Talking-Head, and Product Promo, each tailored to the content type. It also provides common tools such as video conversion, compression, audio extraction, noise reduction, and shorts making. After uploading, users configure output preferences like language, duration, aspect ratio, and background music. The AI then produces a storyboard script, which can be reviewed and refined before rendering the final video. Advanced features include Pro 5x acceleration for faster processing and batch content creation by chaining multiple steps—summary, subtitles, AI voiceover, cover design, and export—into a single workflow. Recapo.ai is used by over 200,000 creators across 50+ countries, with testimonials highlighting its effectiveness for repurposing long-form content such as podcasts, interviews, livestreams, and movies into social media-ready clips. The platform aims to reduce the manual effort of highlighting key moments, adding captions, and formatting for different platforms like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok. While primarily a SaaS platform, it also includes an AI Agent chat interface for more interactive editing requests. The service is accessible via web browser, with no installation required.
