Clypt turns a public YouTube episode into a trailer and captioned clips. Review the selected moments, make your changes and download both vertical 9:16 and horizontal 16:9 videos.
Your episode needs English captions. One episode is free to preview, with no signup or card. Downloads need an account and the free Clypt Helper for Mac or Windows.
Consider Clypt when you have a published interview episode and want to review clip selections alongside a separate episode trailer. Start with your own episode to see whether the choices suit your show.
OpusClip is worth keeping on your shortlist when you need broader source imports, a web editor or scheduling. Its features vary by plan. It supports podcasts too; the useful comparison is how each workflow handles your recording.
If your current editor already gets you the clips you need, keep it in the comparison. A new subscription should solve a production problem you can name.

Clypt publishes this comparison and is one of the products compared. OpusClip details come from its published pricing documentation. This is a workflow comparison, not a hands-on head-to-head test.
Choose an episode that represents your usual recording. Decide which clips and formats you need, then check context, captions, cut boundaries and any work left before publishing. A score or a large pile of suggestions cannot make that decision for you.
Use our same-episode comparison worksheet to record what you find. For help with the cuts themselves, see how to turn a podcast into clips.
