About snipo
snipo is a web app that turns one long video into short vertical clips for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. It is made in the UK and run as a small independent product.
Why it exists
Cutting short clips out of a long video by hand means rewatching the whole thing, guessing which moment will hold attention, reframing it to vertical and typing captions word by word. That takes an evening per video. snipo does the slow parts for you so you can spend that time recording and posting.
What it does
- You paste a YouTube link or upload a video file (MP4, MOV, MKV, WEBM or AVI, up to 2 GB).
- The speech is transcribed and every candidate moment is scored across four metrics (hook, flow, engagement, trend), so you can see why a clip was picked.
- Clips are reframed across 7 AI layouts (Fill, Fit, Split, Three, Four, ScreenShare, Gameplay) and 4 aspect ratios (9:16, 16:9, 1:1, 4:5), with 49 word-by-word caption styles and a short title on screen.
- You edit the captions, then download the clips (MP4 and .SRT) or post and schedule them to YouTube Shorts and TikTok.
How clips are chosen
snipo reads the whole transcript and scores each passage on four things: hook (does the first line make people stop), flow (does it make sense without the rest of the video), engagement and trend. Every clip shows its scores, so you can see why it was picked before you post it.
What it does not do
- It does not watch a channel in the background and auto-post without your review.
- It does not dub or translate into other voices, clip live Twitch streams automatically without a VOD file, or clip audio-only podcasts without a video track.
Who it is for
Podcasters, educators, streamers and anyone who records long videos and wants them on short-form platforms without learning an editor. The free plan gives you 30 clips a month with no card needed. Pro is £7.99 a month with no cap on clips, and clip packs start at 25p a clip with no subscription. See pricing.
