Prerequisites

  • An active StreamYard account with at least one completed broadcast or recording
  • StreamYard recording downloaded as an MP4 file
  • An active OpenClip account (Starter, Pro, or Business plan)
  • Sufficient local or cloud storage for large recording files

Setup Steps

1

Finish your StreamYard broadcast or recording

Complete your live stream or recording session in StreamYard. StreamYard automatically saves a recording of your session that you can access from your dashboard after the broadcast ends.

2

Download your recording from StreamYard

Go to your StreamYard dashboard, locate the completed broadcast, and download the recording as an MP4 file. Make sure to download the full composed video with all guests and overlays included.

3

Upload to OpenClip

Log in to your OpenClip account and upload the StreamYard MP4. OpenClip handles large files and will begin processing your video once the upload is complete.

4

Review your AI-detected clip candidates

OpenClip's AI analyzes the full transcript of your stream, scoring each segment for hook strength, narrative completeness, and viral potential. Browse the 5–15 clip candidates it surfaces.

5

Export clips with captions and speaker tracking

Select your preferred caption preset, choose your export aspect ratio (9:16 vertical), and download your finished clips for sharing on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, LinkedIn, and Twitter/X.

Features

Live Stream Recordings Repurposed

StreamYard recordings capture high-energy live moments — interviews, panels, product launches, and more. OpenClip's AI finds the best of those moments and packages them as short clips automatically.

AI Viral Moment Scoring

AI analyzes your stream transcript and scores each segment by hook strength and viral potential, surfacing the moments most likely to perform on TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Multi-Speaker Face Tracking

StreamYard broadcasts often feature guests and co-hosts. OpenClip's AI-powered speaker tracking identifies who is speaking and dynamically crops to keep them centered in the frame.

10 Caption Presets for Every Brand

Apply word-level captions with highlighted keywords using presets like Beast, Mozi, Kendrick, Pop, and more — giving your repurposed stream clips a polished, on-brand short-form look.

Extend the Life of Every Broadcast

A single StreamYard broadcast can generate a week's worth of short-form content. OpenClip turns one live stream into 5–15 platform-ready clips, maximizing the value of every session.

Export for Every Platform

Deliver clips in the right format for every channel — 9:16 vertical for TikTok and Reels for LinkedIn and Twitter/X, for YouTube — all from a single OpenClip export.

Frequently Asked Questions

There is no direct API integration between OpenClip and StreamYard currently. The workflow is to download your recording from StreamYard as an MP4 and upload it to OpenClip. This process is simple and takes just a few minutes to set up.

In your StreamYard dashboard, navigate to the 'Broadcasts' section. Locate the completed broadcast and you will see a download option for the recording. Download the full composed MP4 for best results with OpenClip's speaker tracking.

Yes. OpenClip is designed for long-form video and works well with extended StreamYard recordings. Longer videos typically yield more clip candidates (up to 15 per video), giving you a rich library of content to choose from.

OpenClip uses AI face detection combined with speaker diarization to identify the active speaker in the composed video and crop to them. It handles multi-guest recordings well, though results depend on how clearly faces are visible in the composed frame.

Interview-style streams, panel discussions, product launches, Q&A sessions, and educational broadcasts all work exceptionally well. Any content with clear spoken segments and distinct narrative moments is ideal for OpenClip's viral moment detection.

Yes. As long as you have the video file, the source doesn't matter to OpenClip. Whether your StreamYard broadcast was streamed to YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, or saved as a standalone recording, you can upload the downloaded MP4 directly to OpenClip.

Absolutely. Webinars often contain highly valuable moments — key insights, product demonstrations, expert answers — that make excellent short clips for LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and other professional platforms. OpenClip's AI identifies those moments automatically.

OpenClip does not currently support direct publishing to social platforms — it provides export files that you download and post yourself. This gives you full control over scheduling and copy on each platform.

Every Live Stream Has a Viral Clip Inside It

Upload your StreamYard recording to OpenClip and let AI find the moments worth sharing — captioned, tracked, and ready for every platform.
