Clipolette vs Hook Caption

Turn one long video into short clips ready to post. You recorded something long: a podcast, a livestream, a lesson, an interview. You want short vertical clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Finding the good parts by hand takes hours. Clipolette does it for you. It finds the best moments, frames them vertical, adds captions and gets them ready to post. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a video from Photos or Files. 2. Tap Find best moments. Some videos get them automatically. 3. Tap a clip to open it. 4. Add captions, export and post. Your long video becomes a short list of clips, best one first. IT FINDS THE BEST MOMENTS • Pick a target length: 15, 30, 60 or 90 seconds. • Clipolette listens to what people say, plus laughter, applause and cheering, and picks the parts worth posting. • Long videos work too, even ones that run for hours. The longer the video, the longer it takes. • Each clip tells you why it was picked. Most get a rating (Strong, Good or Worth a look), and many get a label like Hook, Insight or Laugh. • Nothing stood out? It tells you, instead of making up a favorite. • Rather pick yourself? Videos with camera cuts are split into scenes. Keep the ones you want, drop the rest. IT FRAMES THE SHOT • Clips open framed on the face it finds. • Follow Subject keeps the person in frame as they move. When two people share the shot, it switches to whoever is talking. No face on screen? It follows the action, so gameplay stays centered. • Want the whole shot? Blurred Fill keeps all of it on a soft blurred background. • Or move and zoom the frame yourself. • Safe zones show where TikTok, Reels and Shorts put their buttons and text over your video. CAPTIONS IN ONE TAP • Automatic English captions, highlighted word by word. • Five ready-made styles, or your own color and size. • Fix any line, add or delete captions, translate them, or replace a word everywhere at once. CLEAN IT UP • Pauses: cut the dead air. Captions stay in sync. • Fillers: cut the "ums" and "uhs". • Trim any scene with its sound wave. • Slow motion at half or quarter speed. Slowed parts play without sound. READY TO POST • Export a vertical 1080 x 1920 video, then save or share it. • Post Kit turns your captions into an on-screen hook, a title, a caption and hashtags. Put the hook on your video, copy the rest. • Projects save on their own, so you can come back for your next clip. PRIVATE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. • Everything runs on your device. No account. Nothing is uploaded. • Every tool is free to use. Free exports carry a "Made free with Clipolette" watermark at the top. • One payment removes the watermark. Pay once, keep it forever. GREAT FOR Podcasts, interviews, livestreams, lessons, sermons, webinars, vlogs and gameplay with commentary, in English. Already have a short video? That works too. WHAT YOU NEED • iPhone with iOS 18 or later, or iPad with iPadOS 18 or later. Works on iPhone Duo, open or closed. • Find best moments needs iOS 26 or iPadOS 26, Apple Intelligence turned on, and a video where people talk. Without these, you still get your video's scenes to keep, drop or trim by hand. • Post Kit writes its text with Apple Intelligence on iOS 26 or iPadOS 26. Without it, the hook and caption come from your clip's own words. • Saved projects and smoother slow motion need iOS 26 or iPadOS 26. • Captions and Find best moments understand English, using Apple's speech recognition on your device. If it is missing, Clipolette downloads it (internet needed once) or shows you where to add it in Settings. Your audio stays on your device. • Keep Clipolette open while it works. It keeps your screen on, but locking your device can stop it.

Hook Caption is a focused short-video caption utility for creators who want a faster path from rough clip to readable, ready-to-post export. Import a video, choose or write a strong opening hook, add timed caption cards, preview common short-video safe zones, check caption timing quality, export a captioned video, and share an SRT subtitle file when you need one. Version 2.2 adds Word Sync Studio: per-word timing, karaoke display modes (reveal, fill, pop, box), auto-fit, nudge, and lock so each word hits on the beat. Timing Audit still checks first-caption speed, hook length, reading speed, overlaps, gaps, and coverage before export. What Hook Caption includes: - Word Sync Studio with per-word timing, auto-fit, nudge, lock, and karaoke export modes - Video import from the Photos picker - On-device speech transcription where supported by iOS - Bold opening hook text - Hook Bank with local starter packs across creator categories - Saved hooks for reusable openers - Timed caption cards with split, merge, nudge, and shift-all controls - Caption presets, keyword emphasis, aspect-ratio options, and optional progress bar - Safe-zone previews for common short-video layouts - Timing Audit for first-caption speed, hook length, reading speed, overlaps, gaps, and coverage - Creator Check for hook readiness, caption readability, safe-zone selection, and publish-pack readiness - Publish Pack for post caption and hashtags - Captioned video export - Standards-compliant SRT subtitle export - Auto-saved local project state Hook Caption is intentionally not a social network, template marketplace, or cloud editing account. It is built for creators, students, small businesses, coaches, and anyone posting short videos who wants readable captions and a cleaner export workflow. Your videos and caption text stay on device unless you choose to export, save, or share them. Hook Caption does not include ads, analytics SDKs, tracking SDKs, or account sign-in.
