FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use the tool to create short clips from YouTube videos?

Revid AI's YouTube Clip Maker allows you to instantly generate short, punchy clips from any YouTube video using Revid.AI's powerful algorithms. No video editing skills needed - just enter a YouTube URL, choose your settings, and let our AI do the rest! It's the easiest way to repurpose long YouTube content into bite-sized clips perfect for sharing on social media

How do I use this tool?

It's a breeze! First, copy the URL of the YouTube video you want to clip. Paste that into the tool. Then select if you want the AI to automatically summarize the video in voiceover (super handy!), if you want it to intelligently crop to the most relevant parts, and how many extracts you want (up to 3). You can even give the AI specific guidance on what to look for. Click generate and voila — your custom short clip will be ready in minutes

How much does it cost to use this tool?

The base cost is 1 credit per video. If you enable the "auto-crop" feature for the AI to intelligently crop to the most relevant parts, it costs 1 additional credit. Your available credits depend on your plan. Paid plans come with a monthly allocation of credits, while the free tier provides some complimentary credits to get started. Check out our pricing page for more details

What types of videos work best with this tool?

The tool works great with all kinds of YouTube content — vlogs, podcasts, tutorials, reviews, interviews, and more. As long as it's a public YouTube video, our AI can analyze it and extract the most punchy clips. Give it a try with your favorite videos or podcasts

How long can the YouTube video be?

There's no hard limit, but for best results we recommend videos that are at least 3 minutes long and no more than 2 hours. This gives the AI enough content to find good clips without getting bogged down

How do I guide the AI to find the content I want?

Use the "Specify what you would like to get extracted" field to give the AI keywords or phrases related to your desired clips. For example, if you want clips about a certain topic covered in the video, mention that topic. The AI will focus on finding the most relevant parts

How long does it take to generate the video clips?

Our powerful AI tool works quickly - most clips will be ready within 2-3 minutes of clicking the generate button. The length of the original video and number of clips requested may impact this slightly. You'll be notified via email as soon as they're done and ready to download/edit

What is the auto-crop feature?

Auto-crop uses AI to automatically focus on the most crucial aspects of your video, such as people talking or key events. It dynamically reframes your short clips to maintain visual emphasis where it matters the most, even if the original footage is static. This feature does require an extra credit to use but can significantly enhance the impact of your content

Can I edit and customize the generated clips?

Absolutely! After the AI generates your clip, you'll be able to make additional edits in our intuitive video editor. There, you can trim segments, add text overlays, include transitions, and more to put your own creative spin on the auto-generated clips before downloading or publishing. We give you a great starting point, and you can refine the videos to perfection

What does the AI voice summary include?

The AI voice summary offers a concise tl;dr of the video's most crucial points, main arguments, and important takeaways. It's like having a knowledgeable friend give you a quick rundown of the video. This feature is particularly valuable for lengthier videos, as it enables viewers to understand the core ideas without needing to watch the entire content

What if I'm not happy with the AI-generated clips?

No worries! If you're not satisfied, you have options. You can easily regenerate clips with different settings or guidance, or use our built-in editor to tweak them to perfection. We're committed to ensuring you create clips you love. So if you're still not happy, reach out to our support team and we'll make it right

How do I get more credits to use the tool?

You can upgrade to one of our affordable paid plans to get a larger monthly allocation of credits. This gives you the freedom to generate more clips to fuel your content strategy.
