Clipkiln

Video repurposing: Clipkiln analyzes long-form video and selects moments to turn into short vertical clips with captions, hooks, reframing, and optional B-roll.
Idea to video: Users can provide a topic, prompt, or script to create a narrated vertical video with captions and a background.
Virality scoring: Clipkiln scores candidate clips using six factors: hook, emotional arousal, payoff, shareability, standalone clarity, and conversation trigger.
Intended users: The site lists podcasters, creators, story channels, businesses, and agencies as audiences for the product.
Publishing integrations: Users can connect TikTok, YouTube, and Google Drive to post or deliver finished clips.
AI assistant integrations: Clipkiln provides an MCP connector for Claude and ChatGPT; its page says it is not a general-purpose API for services such as Zapier, Make, or n8n.
Automation: Daily unattended automation is a Pro feature and can process queued videos, create compilations, or generate story videos.
Compilation limit: Compilations can join up to 12 clips into one video with a title band.
Processing scope: The MCP page says Clipkiln reads spoken words to find moments and cannot determine what people look like or what appears on screen.
Video retention: The privacy policy says uploads and their associated clips are deleted five days after the user last touched them; saved clips remain until deleted or account closure.
AI data handling: The privacy policy says video transcription and rendering run on Clipkiln's own machine, while transcript text is sent to its AI provider with a do-not-collect policy request.
Security: The privacy policy states passwords are bcrypt-hashed, connected social tokens and entered AI provider keys are encrypted at rest, the service uses HTTPS, and file access requires login.
Support: Users can send bug reports, ideas, or feedback through the contact form; an email address is optional for direct replies.
Maker: The privacy policy identifies Charles Benjamin Towe, trading as Clipkiln, and gives a Worcestershire, United Kingdom address.
Price from: £4.99/mo
