Create & Edit
Smart Clips
Find the moments in a long program that can stand alone, review them, and publish short clips in the right shapes for every channel.
The challenge
Why this matters
Hours of video contain a few minutes that people will actually share. Finding them by hand takes a day, so most never get posted.
What it is
Smart Clips in plain words
Smart Clips suggests moments from a recording that could stand alone. Your editor reviews each one, sets the exact start and end, and approves the final cut. You receive horizontal and vertical versions, audio-only versions, and a link back to the full program.
Benefits
What you get
A shortlist to start from
The tool suggests moments, so editors start from a shortlist, not a blank timeline.

Every shape you need
Horizontal, vertical and audio-only cuts from one source.
Links back to the full video
Each clip points viewers to the full program in your library.
