Clips AI

Clips AI is an open-source Python library for developers and video creators who want to automatically convert longform videos into short, social-ready clips.

Key capabilities include:

• Transcript-based clip discovery using WhisperX transcription to identify segments with precise start and stop times for trimming.
• Automatic segmentation for audio-centric, narrative content such as podcasts, interviews, speeches, and sermons.
• Aspect-ratio resizing and reframing that dynamically focuses on the current speaker (for example converting 16:9 to 9:16) using pyannote speaker diarization (requires a Hugging Face access token).

Pricing: Free (open-source library).

What makes it notable: it combines clip finding from transcripts and speaker-aware reframing in a developer-friendly workflow, with minimal code to run transcription, generate clip timestamps, and produce crops for vertical or other aspect ratios.
