Our Clipping Tools are designed to make it fast and easy for you to extract exactly the footage you need—whether it’s short, shareable social clips or longer sequences for full-scale productions.
Whether you’re an editor cutting a trailer, a social media manager grabbing highlight reels, or a producer prepping a scene, this toolset helps you go from discovery to download in just a few clicks.
Using the Clipping Tools
First, open the Clipping Tools directly from the media player. Once you’re in, there are a few powerful ways to clip your content.
1) Mark in and out points (TC In / TC Out) manually on the video timeline
2) Drag and drop the in/out handles on the timeline to adjust your clip boundaries manually.
3) Use Speech to Cut (Transcript-Based Clipping)
If you’re working with dialogue or voiceover, use our Speech to Cut feature:
Simply highlight a portion of the transcript next to the video.
The platform will automatically set the TC In and Out based on your selection.
This is perfect for interviews, voice-led segments, and content where timing is synced with what’s said.
