Opus Clip
TOP FEATURES · 12
F01
ClipAnything — Multimodal AI Video ClippingaiFirst-ever multimodal AI clipping that lets you clip any moment from any video using visual, audio, and sentiment cues.

F03
AI ReframevideoAutomatically resizes any video for every platform in 1 click, converting to 9:16, 1:1, or cinematic 16:9 aspect ratios. The AI keeps the speaker or key subject framed and centered so content always looks professional regardless of the destination platform.

WHO IT'S FOR
Who each tool is built for
Use cases and fit tags from each tool's own positioning. Match these to your context, not their marketing.
Global marketing teamsHeyGen translates and dubs existing videos into 175+ languages with accurate lip-sync, voice cloning, and automatic subtitle generation. Marketing teams produce country-specific versions of product demos, executive communications, and campaigns from a single source recording. No localization agencies, no re-filming. Miro reported a 10x increase in video production speed after adopting HeyGen for multilingual content at scale.
L&D and HR teamsHR and learning teams transform scripts, onboarding documents, and compliance policies into professional training videos with realistic avatars. Avatar V means a trainer needs only a 15-second webcam recording to create a consistent on-screen presenter for all future content. SCORM export connects directly with major LMS platforms, and SAML/SSO controls workspace access across teams and departments.
Developers and marketing automation teamsThe Video Agent API lets developers trigger complete video creation from any workflow at $2/minute, bypassing the HeyGen UI entirely. HeyGen Skills installs in Claude Code or Cursor in one command. The MCP server connects to Claude, ChatGPT, and Manus via OAuth. Teams at agencies and SaaS companies use these paths to generate personalized sales videos, product update walkthroughs, and campaign variants at volume on a schedule or event trigger.
Individual creators, YouTubers, vloggers, podcastersCreators upload a long video (podcast, vlog, interview) and OpusClip automatically identifies the most engaging moments and generates multiple ready-to-post short clips. The AI assigns a virality score to each clip, adds animated captions, reframes for vertical platforms, and the creator schedules a month's worth of TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels posts in under 10 minutes — gaining more views without additional editing hours or burnout.
