Setup with Canva + OpenClip: Design-Ready Short-Form Clips

Upload your long-form video to OpenClip. Let the AI detect viral moments and export your short-form clips in the format you need — vertical (9:16) for Reels and Shorts, for Instagram.

Once processing is complete, download your AI-captioned clips as MP4 files from the OpenClip dashboard. These clips come ready with word-level captions baked in.
