Clypmint vs Opus Clip
Opus Clip finds the clip inside your recording. Clypmint edits the clip once you have it.
One honest difference first. Every tool on this page has a free tier you can use without a card. Clypmint does not. It has a 3-day trial for $1, and it asks for a card up front. If you only want to poke at something tonight, start with one of theirs.
What each one is
Opus Clip. Opus Clip takes one long video and finds the short clips inside it, then adds captions and reframes them vertical.
Clypmint. You upload footage you already shot. You pick one of 13 Clypmint styles or tell the AI editor what to do in a sentence. It cuts the footage, writes the captions, and adds the motion graphics, then hands back a finished video and a timeline you can still change.
What Opus Clip is genuinely good at
- It is the best tool in the category at one job: finding which 30 seconds of a 2-hour recording are worth posting.
- It is cheap. $15 a month is the lowest real entry price of any tool here.
- It reframes to vertical and tracks the speaker, so a wide recording becomes a usable Short.
- You can try it with no card at all.

Credits do not mean the same thing at two companies. Opus Clip counts a credit as a minute of video you put in. Captions, HeyGen, and Runway count a credit per thing the model makes. So compare the price and the finished videos, not the credit numbers.
