Clips AI
Open-source Python library for automatic video repurposing
Clips AI is an open-source Python library for converting long-form video into shorter clips. It transcribes audio-centric videos, identifies clip boundaries from transcripts, and dynamically reframes video from 16:9 to 9:16 around the active speaker for short-form formats.

The decision
Should Clips AI make your shortlist?
Start with the job, the team, and the constraints. Product fit becomes much clearer when those three line up.
Practical use cases
Jobs it can take on
- Segment a long-form video into multiple transcript-based clips
- Transcribe a podcast, interview, speech, or sermon before finding clip boundaries
- Reframe a 16:9 video into a 9:16 video focused on the active speaker
Before you choose
Know the tradeoffs
- Clips AI is designed for audio-centric, narrative-based video such as podcasts, interviews, speeches, and sermons.
- Installation requires Python dependencies, libmagic, and FFmpeg.
- Video resizing requires a Hugging Face access token for speaker diarization.
Inside the product
What you can actually do with it.
The core product capabilities, grouped around the work they enable.
Transcript-based clipping
Clips AI transcribes a video and analyzes its transcript to identify and create multiple clips.
Video reframing
Its resizing algorithm dynamically reframes video around the current speaker and supports aspect-ratio conversion from 16:9 to 9:16.
Python package
Developers can install Clips AI with pip and use its Transcriber, ClipFinder, and resize functions in Python workflows.
Typical workflow
Install the Python package and its required dependencies, then transcribe the source video with the included Transcriber. Pass the transcript to ClipFinder to identify clips, and optionally use the resize function to reframe the original video for a different aspect ratio.
