Long videos cut into shorts, priced per clip
Klap takes a long video and returns vertical clips with the speaker tracked and subtitles burned in. The plan you buy is a number of clips a month rather than a number of hours uploaded, which is the honest way round for anyone whose source videos are long. There is no free plan, so the first look costs money.
Our note
Buy this one when your source material is long and your output is steady. If either is uncertain, 2short.ai's free tier answers the same question for nothing, and OpusClip is the better-known option with a wider set of editing controls.

One long video into captioned vertical clips
OpusClip picks moments from a long recording, reframes them vertically and adds captions. The selections are decent rather than inspired, so treat the output as a first pass. It saves hours on a weekly show.
Our note
Worth it if you publish a long show weekly and nothing else. The selections are a decent first pass rather than good taste, so budget time to throw half of them away, and do not let it post straight to a channel unattended.
