Cuts that follow the transcript
A clip maker that cuts on timestamps makes you scrub to find a clean start. Reelsmith works from the words, so a clip opens on the first line of the idea and ends when the point lands.
AI clip maker
The AI clip maker that cuts where the idea ends, not where the timer does.
Make short, self-contained clips from long recordings. Reelsmith reads the transcript, proposes the cut points, reframes to vertical and captions each clip — and you approve every decision before export.

How it works
From upload to finished in three moves.
- 01 Upload a podcast, interview, stream recording or long take
- 02 Pick from the proposed clips, or set your own in and out points on the transcript
- 03 Adjust captions and framing, then export the finished clips
What the ai clip maker gives you.
Video snippets sized for the platform
Each snippet comes out at 9:16 with the speaker kept in frame, ready for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, instead of a landscape crop you still have to reframe.
Every automatic choice stays editable
The proposed in and out points, the caption text and the framing are all suggestions. Move a cut by a sentence, fix a name in the captions, and export only when it reads right.
Questions, answered.
What is the difference between an AI clip maker and an AI clip generator?
In practice they are the same category of tool. "Generator" usually emphasises finding the moments automatically; "maker" emphasises the cutting and finishing. Reelsmith does both: it proposes moments and then lets you make the final clip by hand where needed.
Can I make clips from a video without waiting for the AI suggestions?
Yes. Set in and out points directly on the transcript. The suggestions are a starting point, not a gate.
What formats can I upload?
Standard MP4 and MOV exports from cameras, screen recorders and streaming software work. Clear speech matters more than resolution — the clip maker relies on the transcript.
Is the AI clip maker free?
Your first 10 videos are free, up to 1 hour of footage in total. It is a one-time trial on signup with no card and no watermark — not a recurring free plan.
