Features

Everything a clip needs. Nothing you don't.

01 · Clip finding

Finds the moments you'd have flagged yourself.

ClipClep reads the whole transcript with your Claude Code or Codex (or your own API key) and proposes clips with a title, a one-line payoff and exact timings, shaped by your show's brand voice.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot.

ClipClep is in beta. If something here is unclear, the in-app Config page shows exactly what is connected.

Does ClipClep work without internet?

Transcription and rendering run on your Mac and work offline, and so does your license once it's activated. Finding clips uses the AI you connect (Claude Code, Codex or an API key), which needs internet, and so does publishing to YouTube or TikTok.

What do I need to run it?

A Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or newer). For AI clip finding, Claude Code or Codex installed, or an Anthropic or OpenRouter API key. ClipClep installs its own transcription and video tools on first launch.

Which AI does it use?

Yours. ClipClep sends the transcript to the Claude Code or Codex you already use, or to your own API key, and never to a server of ours. Choose the provider in Config.

Does ClipClep upload my videos?

No. Your recordings and rendered clips stay on your Mac. A video leaves only when you upload it to YouTube or TikTok yourself.

How does the license work?

Enter your key once and it's tied to that Mac. After that ClipClep starts without a connection and quietly renews the license whenever you're online.

Can I use it with Claude Code or Codex?

Yes. ClipClep includes an MCP server with 26 tools (transcribe, suggest, render, assets, knowledge, uploads and more). Set it up from MCP setup in the app.

Windows or Linux?

ClipClep is macOS-first. Other platforms appear in the download section below as soon as a build is published.

Cut your first clip in the next ten minutes.

Free during beta. Your recordings stay on your Mac, and the AI is the one you already pay for.
