Podcli

What it does: Podcli turns podcast episodes and interviews into social clips with transcription, clip selection, vertical reframing, captions, thumbnails, and export.
Local processing: The CLI runs transcription, clip selection, cropping, and export locally, and its video, transcript, project files, and exported clips stay on the device.
AI scoring: Optional AI clip scoring uses a provider account configured by the user and is not routed through podcli.com.
Clip features: Podcli offers face tracking, word-timed captions in four styles, logo branding, and 9:16, 16:9, or 1:1 output.
Transcription: The workflow uses Whisper and pyannote for word timestamps and speaker labels.
MCP integrations: Podcli provides an MCP server with 26 tools for use with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or any MCP client.
AI integrations: Optional AI clip suggestions can use Claude or Codex; the page also says users may use their own Claude or OpenAI API key.
Supported systems: Podcli supports macOS, Linux, and Windows; the installer specifies Apple Silicon for macOS, x64 or arm64 for Linux, and x64 for Windows.
Security and privacy: The maker says the CLI does not upload podcast files and that the only network calls are optional requests to the Claude or Codex API for clip suggestions.
License: The source code is published under GNU AGPL-3.0, with commercial licensing available for teams needing another arrangement.
Who it is for: Podcli is best suited to podcast and interview clipping and is not intended to replace a full multitrack editor, a DAW, or a zero-setup hosted editor.
Cloud distinction: Podcli Cloud uploads episodes to its storage for remote rendering, and its pricing is not yet announced.
Support: The maker lists [email protected] for support and commercial licensing inquiries.
Headquarters: Tbilisi, Georgia
Price from: Free
