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.

AI turns any video link into a ready-to-post 9:16 short with a story voiceover, captions and music
WowReveal is a web app for people who run Facebook pages, YouTube Shorts channels or TikTok accounts and need a steady supply of short videos without editing each one by hand. You start with a link to an existing video or a file you upload. WowReveal finds the strongest moments and writes a short story around them, with a hook at the start and a payoff at the end. An AI voice reads the script in any of 27 languages. The footage is cut to match the narration, and the finished video gets animated captions, a headline card and music. You download a 1080×1920 file, plus post text and hashtags for each platform. Niche templates cover common formats, from talent shows to makeovers. They fill in the settings for you, but every setting can still be changed. The main difference from clipping tools such as Opus Clip is the narration. A clipper cuts a long video into shorter pieces. WowReveal tells a story over the footage, so a short scene becomes a new video with its own voiceover and title. Other tools sit next to the main one. The AI Clipper splits a long podcast or stream into up to ten clips, and the Compilation Builder joins shorts into videos longer than three minutes. Developers can drive the whole studio through a REST API or an MCP server. New accounts get 30 free credits, enough for about three story shorts, and no card is needed. Paid plans start at $12 a month. Credit packs never expire, and failed jobs are refunded automatically.

Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
