- Optionally, access to Facebook Creator Studio for scheduling

## Setup Steps

1

### Upload Your Long-Form Video to OpenClip

Log in to OpenClip and upload the long-form video you want to repurpose — a podcast, webinar, livestream recording, or YouTube video works great.

OpenClip's AI-powered analysis scans your transcript and scores segments by hook strength, narrative completeness, and viral potential, surfacing 5–15 clip candidates.

3

Review the suggested clips, pick your favorites, and choose a caption preset. Speaker tracking automatically keeps the active speaker centered in each clip.

## Features

### AI Viral Moment Detection

AI analyzes your video transcript to identify the highest-impact segments — the ones most likely to stop the scroll on Facebook Reels.

### Automatic Speaker Tracking

AI face detection keeps the active speaker centered in every frame, producing polished vertical clips perfect for Facebook's mobile-first feed.

### Word-Level AI Captions

Every word is synced with on-screen captions using 10 customizable style presets, helping your Facebook clips perform even when viewers watch on mute.

### Vertical Short-Form Export

Export clips as vertical 9:16 for Facebook Reels Facebook Watch — both formats optimized and ready to upload without extra conversion.

### Batch Processing

Upload multiple long-form videos at once and process them all. Each video yields up to 15 clip candidates, letting you build a Facebook content calendar fast.

### Hook-Scored Segments

Each clip candidate is scored for hook strength so you always lead with the most attention-grabbing moment, maximizing watch time and engagement on Facebook.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Does OpenClip publish clips directly to Facebook?

No. OpenClip exports finished clip files to your device. You then manually upload them to Facebook via the Facebook app, Creator Studio, or a third-party scheduler like Buffer or Hootsuite.

### What video format does Facebook accept?

Facebook supports MP4, MOV, and several other formats. OpenClip exports in MP4 by default, which is fully compatible with Facebook Reels and Facebook Watch.

### What aspect ratio should I use for Facebook Reels?

Facebook Reels performs best in a 9:16 vertical aspect ratio, which is one of the vertical short-form export options available in OpenClip.

### Can OpenClip handle videos originally recorded for Facebook Watch?

Yes. Any long-form video file you have — whether it was a Facebook Live recording, a webinar, or a YouTube video — can be uploaded to OpenClip for clip extraction.

### How many clips can I get from one video?

OpenClip typically surfaces 5–15 clip candidates per video depending on the length and content. You choose which ones to export.

### Do captions help Facebook video performance?

Yes. Studies consistently show that videos with captions get significantly more views and watch time on Facebook because many users watch without sound. OpenClip's word-level captions are burned directly into the exported file.

### Can I schedule Facebook posts with OpenClip?

OpenClip doesn't include a social media scheduler. Once you download your clips, you can use Facebook Creator Studio's built-in scheduler, or third-party tools like Buffer or Hootsuite to plan your posts.
