Webinar MCP Clip Workflow Example
Webinars are the highest-effort recordings most teams produce and the least repurposed. This example walks a 45-minute product webinar through an assistant-led MCP session: finding the demo moment, mining the Q&A with transcripts, and shipping LinkedIn-ready clips while the replay email is still being drafted.
Workflow
Submit the recording with a lead-gen brief
You give the assistant the recording URL and the goal ("3 clips for LinkedIn to drive replay signups, must include the dashboard demo"). It calls submit_video; a private or expiring platform link that fails with download_failed gets re-submitted as a local file via create_upload and complete_upload.
Processing runs while you draft the follow-up
The assistant polls get_video_status every 10 to 15 seconds while OpenClip transcribes and detects moments across the 45 minutes. Webinar audio (one presenter, slide narration, live Q&A) processes the same way as any long-form source.
Mine the Q&A with the transcript
Q&A answers are webinar gold but hard to locate by scrubbing. The assistant calls get_transcript at sentence level, finds where questions start, then narrows with word-level windows to the crisp 40-second answer worth clipping.
Pick moments that show the product
From list_clips (titles and hooks arrive as untrusted content for your review), you prioritize the live demo beat and the pricing answer over generic intro material, per the brief. Screen-heavy moments deserve a deliberate look: check that the key UI is legible in a vertical crop before approving.
Render branded, captioned clips
render_clip runs per approved moment with the company caption preset and logo (saved once as a processing agent via create_agent). The assistant polls get_render_status and hands back clip URLs ready for LinkedIn and Shorts.
Feed the campaign, not just the feed
The same clips slot into the replay email, the sales follow-up, and the next webinar's promo. One recording becomes a content package, and get_usage confirms the whole session cost minutes of processing.

Features
Built for screen-share sources
Speaker tracking frames the presenter when they are on camera, and deliberate moment review keeps slide-heavy segments legible in vertical formats.
Q&A becomes findable
Transcript windows locate live answers precisely, turning the most spontaneous part of a webinar into the most clippable.
Demo moments, preserved
The product walkthrough is usually the highest-converting minute of the whole event; the brief pins it as a must-include so it never gets skipped.
Feed-ready without sound
Word-level captions carry the pitch on mute, which is how most of LinkedIn will watch it.
Company branding by default
A saved processing agent applies the caption style and logo on every render, so marketing does not retouch clips after the fact.
One event, one content package
Clips feed the replay email, nurture sequences, and event promos, multiplying a recording that used to get watched once.
