Prerequisites

  • An active OpenClip account (Starter, Pro, or Business plan)
  • A Sprout Social account with publishing permissions
  • At least one connected social profile in Sprout Social (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, or YouTube)
  • Completed video clips exported from OpenClip in MP4 format

Setup Steps

1

Generate Clips in OpenClip

Upload your long-form video to OpenClip and let the AI detect the most engaging moments. Each video typically yields 5–15 clip candidates ready for social media.

2

Export in the Right Format

Export your selected clips in vertical (9:16) for TikTok and Instagram Reels for LinkedIn and Facebook, for YouTube — all directly from OpenClip's export panel.

3

Log Into Sprout Social

Open your Sprout Social account and navigate to the Publishing tab. Sprout Social supports video uploads for Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and YouTube.

4

Upload Exported Clips

Use Sprout Social's 'New Post' or 'Asset Library' feature to upload the MP4 files exported from OpenClip. Attach the appropriate clip to each platform-specific post.

5

Write Captions and Schedule

Add platform-native captions, hashtags, and tags within Sprout Social's composer. Use Sprout's optimal send-time suggestions to schedule each clip for maximum reach.

6

Monitor Performance

Track views, engagement, and follower growth per clip using Sprout Social's analytics dashboard to understand which AI-detected moments resonate most with your audience.

Features

Vertical Short-Form Export

Export the same clip in 9:16 vertical simultaneously, giving Sprout Social the right aspect ratio for every platform without any manual resizing.
