ClipCurate — clip editing time calculator
· 4 episodes a month, 10 clips from each
· 16 hours of editing a month, costing $640
· Back catalogue: 100 weeks of posts, 200 hours of editing

Run it yourself: https://clipcurate.com

Method: editing a month = new episodes x editing time per episode, and its cost = those hours x the hourly cost. Back catalogue editing = past episodes x editing time per episode. Weeks of posts = past episodes x clips per episode / clips posted a week. Every figure is your estimate.

Clips a stranger would actually understand

Clipping that reads what was said rather than the audio waveform, so each clip makes a complete point on its own.

  • 01

    Chosen from the transcript

    It reads for complete arguments, stories with a beginning and an end, contrarian statements and specific numbers.

  • 02

    Natural entry and exit points

    Each clip starts and ends where the point does, so it stands alone.

  • 03

    Scored for a cold audience

    Every candidate is scored on whether a stranger with no context would understand it.

  • 04

    Hooks and captions per platform

    A hook and a caption are written for each platform.

  • 05

    Every format, captioned

    Vertical, square and horizontal versions, each with accurate captions.

  • 06

    A library of the back catalogue

    Your back catalogue becomes a clip library, so a year of episodes becomes a year of scheduled posts.

The problem

A single podcast episode holds several genuinely good moments inside a long stretch of context. Pulling them out by hand is slow editing work, so most creators post nothing, or post a random clip.

Automated clipping tools cut on silence and speaker changes, so clips start mid-sentence and have no point, and creators try them once and stop.

Who it is for

  • Podcasters and course creators

    Creators sitting on hundreds of hours of long-form video, with no time to cut it.

  • B2B marketers and media teams

    Webinar-heavy marketers, conference organisers and media teams responsible for social output.

Questions people actually ask

How is this different from other clipping tools?
It selects clips on substance rather than on the audio waveform. It reads the transcript for complete points and finds natural entry and exit points, instead of cutting on silence and speaker changes.
What do I get from the free episode?
Twenty finished, captioned, ready-to-post clips from one full episode.
Which formats are produced?
Vertical, square and horizontal versions, each with accurate captions, plus a hook and caption written for each platform.
How does it decide which clips are worth posting?
Each candidate is scored on whether a stranger with no context would understand it.
Can it work through my back catalogue?
Yes. On the 149 dollar plan it builds a clip library across your back catalogue, with scheduling.
What does it cost?
The first episode is free. 49 dollars a month covers 10 hours of source video, 149 dollars a month covers 40 hours with the back-catalogue library and scheduling, and 490 dollars a month is for teams and agencies with multiple brands.
Why should I trust the clip editing time calculator?
It is arithmetic on your own estimates, worked out in your browser. It does not look at your video; ClipCurate processes your first full episode free and returns twenty finished, captioned clips to compare with your editor's.
