Submagic's plans count captioned videos up to a set length (2 minutes on Starter), and clipping long videos is the Magic Clips add-on, per its pricing and help pages. ClipEmber is built around clipping long videos and posting the results: a credit is a run on up to 20 minutes of a video, with every clip included.
Facts about Submagic come from its own website, checked October 10, 2026. Plans change, so check their pricing page before you buy. Submagic is a trademark of its owner; ClipEmber is not affiliated with it.
If one of these is what you need, Submagic is the better fit for that job.
One credit is one run on a 1–20 minute window of a video, and every clip that run produces is included. A 20-minute window costs the same as a 2-minute one; a longer video is clipped one window at a time.
Point it at YouTube channels, including Creative Commons sources. It clips new uploads, writes the attribution line for CC-BY videos into the caption, and queues posts for your review or posts them on a schedule.
Write the caption and pick who can see it, and the clip goes straight to your TikTok profile. YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels publish at the time you set.
The hosted MCP server exposes 31 tools: create clips, review Autopilot's picks and manage the posting calendar from a chat, on any plan.
Click a word to cut it from the clip. Re-rendering after an edit does not use a credit.
