Frequently Asked Questions

Quick tips, surprising facts, step-by-step demonstrations, and 'aha moment' explanations tend to perform best. OpenClip's AI is trained to identify exactly these high-hook segments from your lectures.

The template exports clips in 9:16 vertical format with safe-zone captions, ensuring text doesn't get cut off by the Shorts UI on any device.

OpenClip works best with talking-head or presenter-style footage where speaker tracking can lock onto your face. Screen recordings without a visible speaker will still get captions and clip detection, but face tracking won't apply.

Typically 5–15 clip candidates per hour of footage, depending on how densely packed your content is with quotable, teachable moments.

OpenClip is designed for zero-edit output — clips are trimmed, captioned, and framed automatically. You review, download, and upload directly to YouTube.
