Category-defining auto-clipper with a virality score — finds, reframes, and captions highlights from long video.

  • Strong auto-highlight detection
  • Virality scoring on clips
  • Auto-reframe keeps speakers centered
  • Animated AI captions included
  • Billed per source-minute, not per clip
  • Highlight picks need manual review

  • Watermark on free tier

Submagic

Billed per finished video, not per credit or source-minute, and auto-inserts context-matched B-roll, not just captions.

  • Removes silences automatically
  • Captions in dozens of languages
  • Pulls clips from long video
  • Import footage or a YouTube link
  • Web-only, no mobile editor
  • Less highlight-detection depth than rivals
  • B-roll picks need review
