Klap is a clipping tool: it takes a long video and returns short vertical clips ready for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts. Input is either a file upload or a pasted YouTube link, and the company offers a rule of thumb of roughly five clips per minute of source video.
The editing is where most of the product sits. AI Editing extracts the strongest topics from a source video and cuts them into clips. AI Reframe 2 analyses scenes and applies layouts including Split Screen, Screencasts and Gaming. Auto Reframing keeps the important subject in shot as the framing changes, and facial recognition drives responsive subtitles. Each clip gets subtitles, a recommended caption to post with it, and a viral score estimating its potential to spread. Fonts, colours, logos and framing are customisable.
Editing and transcription cover 52 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi and Arabic. Finished clips publish and schedule directly to TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and LinkedIn.
For developers there is a public API documented at docs.klap.app, an MCP server, and integrations with Zapier, Make and n8n. The MCP server is worth noting: it puts Klap in the small group of video tools an AI agent can drive directly.
Pricing is Basic at 14 dollars a month for 100 clips, Pro at 39 dollars for 300 clips and Pro Plus at 94 dollars for 1,000 clips, billed yearly. The site also quotes 29, 79 and 189 dollars month to month against those same tiers, and the relationship between the two sets of figures is not stated clearly on the page. Paid exports carry no Klap branding.
The free trial is the part to understand before signing up. It covers one video with no credit card, and it lets you preview and edit the result, but downloading and posting both require a paid plan. That means the free tier cannot produce a usable clip, which is a different proposition from the free tiers on tools that watermark instead.
Because segmentation depends on speech detection, Klap suits podcasts, interviews, webinars and streams. Material with little dialogue gives it less to work with.
