Ottome turns your podcasts, talks and streams into scored, captioned vertical clips — and shows you exactly why each one works. Process unlimited hours. Pay only for the clips you keep.
One upload becomes a set of ready-to-post clips in minutes — each one reframed around the speaker, captioned word-by-word, and scored in the open.
Upload a file or paste a link. Podcasts, talks, streams, courses.
Word-level transcription with 25+ language support.
Hooks, stories, payoffs — complete thoughts, never mid-sentence chops.
Face-tracked 9:16 crop that pans like a camera operator, not a robot.
Animated word-highlight captions, your brand kit, one-click export.
We read a thousand reviews of the big clipping tools. Then we built the opposite.
No upload-minute credits. No expiring balances. Process a 3-hour stream, keep two clips, pay for two clips — or go flat-rate unlimited.
Every clip shows its factor-by-factor breakdown. Learn what's working, fix what isn't, and get better at making content — not just posting it.
Full API on the $19 plan. Webhooks. And a self-host license if your footage can never leave the building — agencies, churches, health, legal, education.
Clips snap to sentence boundaries with the setup included — no more punchlines missing their setup, no cuts mid-word.
Live stage-by-stage status on every job — transcribing, scoring, rendering. If something fails, you know what, where, and it retries itself.
Cancel in one click. Prorated refunds, automatically. Your exports stay yours forever — nothing expires in 3 days as a pressure tactic.
Three structural differences: you pay for clips you keep, not minutes you upload (processing is unlimited on every plan); every virality score shows its factor-by-factor breakdown instead of a black-box number; and the API is included at $19, with a self-host Docker license for teams whose footage can't leave the building.
25+ languages, auto-detected. Captions render in the correct script — 日本語, 한국어, 中文, العربية (right-to-left), हिन्दी, ไทย, русский and all Latin languages — and viral-moment scoring uses language-specific hook detection for nine languages.
Free forever: unlimited processing, 5 exports a month, all caption styles, clips never expire, no credit card. Free exports carry a 0.8s end-card — not a watermark over your content.
Click the word, fix it, and that one clip re-renders in seconds. Edits are per-clip, never global. Style, highlight color, and position are editable per clip too.
One click. Immediate, with an automatic prorated refund. No retention flow, no support ticket, and your clips stay downloadable forever.
Yes — the same endpoints that power the app, with a bearer key from your account page. Included in the $19 Creator plan (1,000 calls/mo). Agents and scripts welcome: see ottome.app/llms.txt.
"The tools that promised to free creators quietly built businesses on credits that expire, scores that can't be questioned, and cancellation flows designed to be lost in. We think the clipping engine should be on your side: paid on results, transparent in its judgments, and yours to walk away from any day — which is exactly why you won't want to."
