# SupoClip
> SupoClip is an open-source AI video clipper that turns long videos into captioned, vertical short-form clips for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and similar platforms.
SupoClip can be used as a hosted web application, as a native iOS app, or self-hosted from its AGPL-3.0 source code. The workflow accepts YouTube URLs and uploaded video files, transcribes the source, proposes promising segments, scores candidate clips, creates face-aware vertical crops, adds word-synced captions, and exports platform-ready videos.

## Key capabilities
- AI-assisted clip discovery and candidate scoring.
- YouTube URL and uploaded-file inputs.
- Face-aware 9:16 vertical reframing.
- Word-synced animated captions and caption templates.
- Export presets for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram Reels.
- Hosted web usage, an iOS app, or AGPL-3.0 self-hosting.

## Important qualifications
- Virality scores prioritize candidates; they do not guarantee audience performance.
- The source code is free, but self-hosters provide their own infrastructure and any paid transcription or model-provider usage.
- The hosted service requires a paid plan (Pro or Scale) to process videos; self-hosted installs have no plan limits.
- Users should process only videos they own or have permission to repurpose.
- Product capabilities and pricing can change; use the canonical website and repository for current details.
