Features

Viral Moment Detection

OpenClip's AI analyzes your transcript and engagement signals to pinpoint the reaction moments with the strongest emotional hooks and highest viral potential.

Active Speaker Centering

AI face detection keeps the reacting speaker perfectly framed at all times, even during fast cuts or expressive movements, so no reaction gets cut off.

Expressive Caption Presets

Choose bold, animated caption styles like Beast or Pop to mirror the energy of the reaction, with word-level sync that amplifies the emotional impact of every line.

Hook Strength Scoring

Each clip candidate is scored by AI for how well it hooks a viewer in the first three seconds — critical for reaction content where the opening moment drives watch time.

Vertical Export

Export reaction clips in 9:16 for TikTok and Shorts posts. Both formats are generated from the same source clip with no extra editing.

Batch Clip Generation

Process full reaction video uploads in batch and receive 5–15 clip candidates per video, letting you schedule weeks of content from a single long-form session.
