What Clipolette does

Long recordings in. Ready-to-post clips out.

Built for podcasters, streamers, and YouTubers who have an hour of great material every week and no time to cut it down by hand.

AI picks the highlights — you stop scrubbing

Drop in a 90-minute podcast or stream VOD. Clipolette finds the 10–15 shareable moments automatically. No timeline scrubbing, no transcript re-reading.

Burned-in captions, readable at a glance

85% of social video plays muted. Every clip exports with caption styles tuned to land: short lines, high-contrast, no awkward word breaks.

One pass — vertical, square, and 16:9

Export the same clip sized for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, LinkedIn, and YouTube simultaneously. No re-crops, no re-exports.

On-device pipeline on Apple Silicon

Your recordings never leave your Mac. No upload queue, no cloud rendering credits, no NDA headaches with interview guests.

Batch a week of content in one session

Drop five episodes in at once. Clipolette chains the exports so you can walk away and come back to a folder ready to schedule.

Works with podcasts, Twitch, YouTube, Zoom

MP4, MOV, M4A, MP3, WAV — any long-form recording. Twitch VODs, podcast tape, Zoom interviews, recorded livestreams.

Who it's for

Built for creators with long-form content.

If you're publishing weekly podcasts, streams, or long YouTube videos, you already have the content — Clipolette turns it into the shorts you haven't had time to cut.

Podcasters

One episode → 10 shorts per week, all from the same drop. Every clip points back to the full show for the listener-to-subscriber pipeline.

Twitch streamers

Best VOD moments, cut and captioned while you sleep. Post the next morning, feed the TikTok algorithm without a second shift.

YouTube creators

Long uploads become Shorts for discovery. The Shorts algorithm is a different feed — point clips back at your long-form.

Course creators & coaches

Teasers from paid lectures for organic reach. Talking-head snippets from webinars as proof-of-concept social content.

Apple-native

Record anywhere. Cut on the Mac.

Clipolette runs on Apple Silicon. The on-device model needs an M1 or newer — the reason it's fast and private is also the reason Intel Macs can't run it. Review candidate clips on iPhone, export finals from your Mac.
