AI that finds every moment worth clipping
Give it a long recording; it does the watching, the picking, and the cutting — and hands back short vertical clips you can post as they are.
Smart highlight detection
Clip Machine watches the whole video and surfaces the moments most worth posting — hooks, punchlines, and payoffs — then ranks them so the strongest clips come first. You choose how many to pull, from a single hero clip up to 60 in one pass.
Auto vertical reframe
Every clip is recut to the aspect ratio you pick — 9:16 for TikTok and Shorts, 4:5 and 1:1 for the feed, or 16:9 and beyond. The subject stays in frame, so a widescreen source becomes a native vertical clip with no manual cropping.
From one long video to a stack of clips
Paste a video link
Drop a YouTube URL or a direct video link, choose how many clips you want (1–60), and pick an aspect ratio. That's the whole setup — no timeline, no editing.
AI finds the best moments
Clip Machine watches the full video, scores the strongest moments, and cuts each one into its own short clip reframed to your chosen ratio. Longer sources take a few minutes.
Download ready-to-post clips
Finished clips land in your library on permanent URLs — download them free, forever, and post straight to TikTok, Reels, or Shorts. Flip on a share page when you want one.
Built for anyone sitting on long video
Podcasters
Turn a two-hour episode into a week of vertical clips. Clip Machine finds the sharpest exchanges and cuts them to 9:16, so every episode feeds your TikTok and Shorts without a manual edit pass.
Agencies & media buyers
Pull dozens of vertical variants from a single client recording and pay for the processing instead of per seat. Wire it into your pipeline over the API and batch clips across accounts.
Streamers & creators
Drop a VOD link and get the highlights back as ready-to-post verticals. The best moments float to the top, so you post the plays that land instead of scrubbing a long stream.
Course & webinar creators
Slice a long lesson or webinar into short teaching clips for the feed. Each concept becomes its own vertical clip you can post to promote the full thing.
Clip on autopilot, over REST and MCP
Submitting a job, polling it, listing your library, checking credits — all of it is a REST endpoint and a native MCP tool. Point an assistant at it and let it turn long videos into clips on your behalf, drawing your shared Ounie credits.
The same endpoints the dashboard uses — bearer key, JSON in, clip URLs out. Submit a job, then poll it.
curl -X POST https://clips.ounie.com/api/jobs \
-H "Authorization: Bearer clp_live_…" \
-d '{"video_url":"https://youtu.be/…",
"num_highlights":10,
"aspect_ratio":"9:16"}'Native tools for Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT — and the Ounie AI Team, which connects with the key in the URL where headers can't be set.

One ounie_live_ key works across the whole Ounie app fleet — enable it once on ounie.com and it drives Clip Machine too.
Authorization: Bearer ounie_live_… # same jobs + credits, one fleet key
A job reserves source minutes × 20 + num_highlights × 20 credits; if the balance is short it's refused with a top-up link — an agent can never overdraw.

A clip run costs the source video's length plus the clips you get — drawn from the shared Ounie wallet every Ounie product uses.
