Video Clipper helps you turn one long video into many short clips for Shorts, Reels and TikTok. Upload your video, preview it in the browser, and define clips with start and end times, captions and output format. You can play each clip to check it, then download the whole thing as a clip plan (JSON) for your editor. This site is honest about one thing: a browser cannot render a finished multi-clip MP4 for free — that needs a video editor or ffmpeg. So we give you the preview and the exact plan instead of faking a download.
Clip list
How to use Video Clipper
- Upload your long video file.
- Set a clip's start and end time, choose a format, and add a caption.
- Press “Add Clip” — repeat for every clip you want.
- Press a clip's play button to preview it, then “Download Clip Plan” for the JSON file.
Worked example
Example: a 20-minute tutorial video. Clip 1: 0:00–0:30 “The hook — why this matters”, format 9:16 Shorts. Clip 2: 4:10–4:45 “The best tip”, caption “Save this”. The plan lists every clip with times, format and caption — your editor cuts exactly those parts.
Tips for better results
- Clips under 60 seconds perform best on Shorts and Reels.
- Start each clip with the most interesting second of that moment.
- Add a caption to every clip — most people watch without sound.
- Export the plan and cut in CapCut, Premiere or any editor.
Frequently asked questions about Video Clipper
Does this tool cut and download an MP4?
No — and no free browser tool honestly can. It previews your video and builds an exact clip plan (times, captions, format) that your editor uses to cut the clips.
Is the clipper free?
Yes, completely free — everything runs in your browser, no API key needed.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. Your video is previewed locally in your browser and never leaves your device.
What is a clip plan?
A JSON file listing each clip's start time, end time, format and caption — everything an editor needs to cut your video.
Can I preview a clip before adding it?
Yes — press the play button on any clip in the list and the video jumps to that clip and plays it.
Which format should I choose?
9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok; 16:9 for YouTube; 1:1 for social feeds.
