Podcasts and talking heads
The episode is the asset. The bottleneck is vertical, captioned clips with a hook taken from the actual transcript.
Vertical or split layouts. Languages selected before the job. Posting copy travels with the export.
Solutions
Built for desks that already record
If long-form already exists, Clippingli is the local desk that turns it into captioned short-form, with the post written, without handing the master to a vendor queue. Persona pages: podcasters, agencies, YouTubers, all.

Lessons that must stand alone
A recording should ship as short minutes, not as “please watch the whole hour.”
Suggested clips, summaries, and library search so you can find a line later.
Send a review link. Keep the timeline.
Clients want output. They should not receive the original, and you should not pay a clip meter per brand.
Agency workspace, local forge, unlisted preview links. One seat on the licensed desk.
A week of recordings, one overnight
Brand footage should not wait on a freelancer for captions, and it should not sit on someone else’s GPU.
Batch overnight. Smart Review in the morning. Post from the export folder.
Adoption
Install. Activate. Drop the next file.
Download the app. Activate with the key from checkout. Paste your OpenAI key once. The next long-form file is the test.
Scope
What we will not claim
We do not invent user counts, certifications we do not hold, or “viral guaranteed” scores. The product is the workflow: ingest, select, frame, caption, review, export. On your Mac or PC.
