Everything a clip needs
Built for the moment, not the montage.

“The captions are the killer feature. Word timing is tight, the highlight colour pops, and I never have to fix a line.”
MK
Musa K.

ClipAtelier is an AI YouTube clipping tool and Shorts maker. Paste a YouTube link or upload a video and it cuts the best moments into vertical Shorts, TikToks and Reels with word-timed captions, AI titles and hashtags.
Yes. Free Tier with NO Watermark: every new account gets 15 free tokens with no card. You can turn a long video into captioned Shorts before paying anything.
For YouTube links we read the Most Replayed heatmap and cut at the peaks. If there is no heatmap yet, the AI ranks the transcript for hooks, punchlines and clear answers, then reframes to 9:16 and burns in karaoke-style captions.
No. ClipAtelier runs entirely in the browser — paste a link or upload a file and the pipeline runs on our servers. Nothing to download.
Tokens pay for producing clips. Viral mode costs 1 token per started 4 minutes of source, plus 1 per clip (2 with captions) — a 30-minute video into 3 captioned clips is 14 tokens. Equal split costs half a token per part up to a minute (+½ with captions). Clips that fail are refunded, and downloads are always unlimited.
Yes. Paste the YouTube episode (or upload on a paid plan). ClipAtelier finds quotable moments, crops to vertical and adds captions so you can post Shorts, TikToks and Reels the same day.
Viral mode handles long videos. Equal split accepts up to 72 minutes at once, in parts of up to 3 minutes; for longer streams you pick the window to split right in the UI.
Source videos are deleted the moment your clips finish rendering. Clips stay available for 15 days, then they're deleted automatically.
