Free AI clip maker for TikTok, Reels and Shorts
Zophous turns a long video into short, captioned clips you can post today. Paste a YouTube link or upload a file, and the AI picks the moments most likely to hold attention, cuts them to 9:16, adds captions and a hook, and scores each clip so you know which to post first.
The free plan gives you 60 minutes of video every month with no credit card. Spend them on one long video or split them across up to three shorter ones (each video uses at least 20 minutes). Free clips carry a small Zophous watermark.
How it works
Three steps from a long video to clips ready for your feed.
- Paste a YouTube link or upload an MP4 or MOV.
- For YouTube links, Zophous reads which parts viewers rewatch most and picks the window to clip. You can drag it.
- Get vertical clips with captions and hooks, each scored for virality. Download them and post.
What the free plan includes
Everything you need to try Zophous on real videos, every month.
- 60 minutes of video a month, reset every 30 days
- AI clips with captions and hooks
- A virality score on every clip
- The engagement heatmap to pick your window
- One workspace
When it's worth upgrading
Paid plans start at $15 a month for 200 minutes and remove the watermark. They also post and schedule clips straight to TikTok and YouTube, and add the DNA Profile, which learns from how your clips perform and tunes the next batch.
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?+
Yes. You get 60 minutes of video every month with no credit card. Free clips are watermarked, and posting to TikTok from the app is a paid feature.
How long can my video be?+
On the free plan, up to 60 minutes a month in total. Each clipping run can cover up to two hours of a video, so on a paid plan you can clip long podcasts and streams.
What happens when I run out of free minutes?+
Your minutes come back 30 days after they last reset, and the app shows the date. If you need more before then, any paid plan adds minutes right away.
Do I need editing skills?+
No. The AI finds the moments, cuts them, adds captions and reframes to vertical. You pick your favorites and post.
Can I clip videos I don't own?+
Zophous never claims ownership of your content, and you're responsible for having the rights to what you clip. Clipping someone else's video without permission or a valid fair-use basis can infringe their copyright.
