AI video clipping tool that turns long videos into captioned vertical shorts — and dubs them into 29 languages with native lip-sync.

Klap is an AI video clipping platform. You upload a long-form video — a podcast episode, webinar, sermon, lecture, or YouTube upload — and Klap detects the high-retention moments, reframes them to vertical with face tracking (its "AI Reframe" system), burns in animated word-level captions, and exports ready-to-post vertical clips for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok. It has grown to roughly 3.5 million users and is one of the more established names in the auto-clipping category, alongside OpusClip and Vizard.
Its standout feature is dubbing: on its higher tiers, Klap translates a clip into any of 29 languages with native lip-synced speech, which is genuinely category-leading at consumer price points. It also schedules clips directly to TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and exposes a public clipping API for developers who want to embed clip generation in their own product.
Klap sells tiered plans — its lineup has spanned Starter, Pro, and Pro+ levels — billed monthly or annually. Annual billing carries a discount, the one Klap officially advertises, promoted as high as 50% off the monthly rate. The "Klap coupon codes" that circulate on affiliate and aggregator sites are unofficial, often limited to new signups, and frequently just restate that annual saving. Plan names and prices change over time, so confirm current pricing and any live promo on Klap's own pricing page.
What Klap deliberately isn't: a writer, a designer, a newsletter tool, or a brand-voice system. It doesn't generate static images, carousels, blog posts, or a persistent persona across outputs. The product is narrow on purpose, and that focus is part of why its clipping and dubbing are so good.
Klap answers one question — "how do I turn this long video into a short?" — and it answers it well, including in 29 languages. What it doesn't answer is everything the same source video should also become. That's where Kompozy comes in. Feed the identical source you'd hand to Klap — the podcast or YouTube long — into Kompozy, and it generates the clip plus the six formats Klap has no path to: static Photo Posts, a brand-exact Carousel that walks the episode's key points, Quote Graphics from the sharpest lines, a Blog Article recap, an Email Newsletter, and native Text Posts for X and LinkedIn. Every output runs through your Persona Brief, so the tone, banned words, and CTA land identically whether it's a caption or a 600-word blog — the consistent brand layer Klap's generic captions don't provide.
You can also keep Klap for the dubbing if that's your edge and still let Kompozy own the rest of the calendar. Bring a Klap-dubbed clip into Kompozy as a source asset, and it rides the same queue as the statics, carousel, blog, and newsletter Kompozy built from that episode — all scheduled and published across nine social platforms plus blog and email with Autopilot and a per-post review pipeline, reframed to 9:16, 1:1, and 16:9. Kompozy also generates video Klap can't: Persona Shorts and HeyGen avatar video with a face-locked recurring identity, so your reaction take and your clipped highlight ship under one persona. Klap turns one video into a short; Kompozy turns one source into a published week.

Clipping and dubbing. Its clip detection is mature and battle-tested at scale, and its 29-language lip-synced dubbing is category-leading at the price. It's deliberately narrow — it doesn't write blogs, design carousels, build newsletters, or maintain a brand voice across formats.
Not really. Klap writes caption text for scheduling but doesn't generate statics, carousels, blogs, newsletters, or threads. To turn one source into every format in a consistent brand voice and publish across nine platforms, you pair it with — or replace it by — a content engine like Kompozy.
Use Klap for clipping and dubbing if that's your edge, then bring the clips into Kompozy as source assets. Kompozy generates the carousel, blog, newsletter, quote graphics, and text posts from the same episode in your Persona Brief voice and schedules everything across nine platforms plus blog and email.
