# Reeltopus

> Reeltopus is an AI video editor for creators: clip long videos, edit by chat, post everywhere, see what works. It is a web app by Turncraft Private Limited at https://reeltopus.com, and the same editor works from Claude and ChatGPT through the Reeltopus connector.

## What Reeltopus does

1. Edit by chat (agentic editing). In the editor's AI chat you say what to change ("start at 'the trick is'", "karaoke captions at the top", "cut the ums", "make it 30 seconds") and it makes the edit; a request with several changes comes back as a plan to approve first. From Claude or ChatGPT, the Reeltopus connector edits the same clips: trim, cut words, caption style and colours, framing, B-roll, brand kits and templates. Every edit is one undo step in the clip's history, with Revert for any one step, whether it was made by hand, in the chat or by an assistant.
2. Long videos. Upload a podcast, stream, webinar, lecture or interview (up to 50 GB and 12 hours) and get the best moments, each scored with the reason it was picked, or cut the whole video into a numbered series of consecutive parts (about 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 90 seconds or 3 minutes each, or one part per chapter) with YouTube chapters. From the same video it writes show notes, a YouTube description, a newsletter, a blog post and posts for X, Threads and LinkedIn, at no cost in hours.
3. See what works (analytics). The Analytics page shows how every clip posted through Reeltopus is doing on each platform (views, likes, comments, shares, saves and watch time, where the platform reports them) and what does best for you: posting time, length, hook and caption style. Smart links count clicks and leads, and sponsor reports total every post delivered on a deal.

Also: Dropbox folder watch on paid plans (new videos in a watched folder are imported and clipped on their own), exports up to 4K (Pro and Agency) with captions burned in or as SRT, VTT and ASS files, and Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro timelines. Posting goes to YouTube, LinkedIn and the other accounts you connect, or download the MP4 and post it anywhere.

## Quick answers

- Can Reeltopus edit videos by chat? Yes. Type what you want changed in the editor's AI chat and it edits the clip: trims, cuts words, caption styles, framing, music, text, stickers and looks. Big requests are shown as a plan first, and every edit can be undone or reverted on its own from the edit history. Details: https://reeltopus.com/edit-videos-by-chat
- Can I use Reeltopus in Claude or ChatGPT? Yes. Add the Reeltopus connector (MCP server at https://reeltopus.com/api/mcp) and ask the assistant to clip a video, edit a clip, cut a whole video into a series, write show notes, read how posts are doing, export and schedule posts. It asks before posting. Setup: https://reeltopus.com/docs/api/mcp/claude and https://reeltopus.com/docs/api/mcp/chatgpt
- Does Reeltopus have analytics? Yes. The Analytics page shows views, likes, comments, shares, saves and watch time per post and per platform, and what works best for you (posting time, length, hook, caption style), plus smart-link clicks and leads and sponsor reports. Details: https://reeltopus.com/video-analytics
- Is Reeltopus only a clipping tool? No. It clips long videos, and it is also an editor (chat, transcript and timeline tools), a scheduler and an analytics page, in one web app.
- Can it turn a long video into a series? Yes. Whole-video mode cuts the full video into numbered, captioned parts that cover all of it, with chapters, and can schedule them in order to one connected account.
- Can it import new videos automatically? Yes, from a Dropbox folder on paid plans: new videos are imported and clipped on their own, under a monthly limit you set.
- Who makes Reeltopus? Turncraft Private Limited.

## In detail

Reeltopus turns long videos (podcasts, streams, webinars, lectures, interviews, vlogs) into short vertical clips: it picks complete moments with a hook and a payoff and explains each pick, adds accurate animated captions in 83 styles (all of them playing at https://reeltopus.com/caption-styles) and 100+ languages (including mixed-language speech like Hinglish), reframes each shot to vertical (a tracked crop on the speaker, the whole shot for wide panels and slides, the screen on top with the people below for screen shares, split screen for two people far apart) and follows the person the creator clicks, removes silences and filler words, lets you edit by transcript or in plain words (big AI changes are shown as a plan to approve first, and every edit is logged with Revert for any one step), re-edits a whole clip in one tap in an AI Edit style (Hype, Podcast pro, Educator, Story, Cinematic), removes retakes (restarted or repeated sentences), and exports MP4 at 1080p (1440p and 4K on Pro and Agency), SRT/VTT/ASS caption files and Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro timelines. Post and schedule straight to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Pinterest and Bluesky. Anyone can sign up free: the Free plan includes 1 upload hour a month in 1080p, with no card needed. Free exports carry a small "Made with Reeltopus" watermark in a bottom corner and stay downloadable for 7 days. Paid plans have no watermark. Free hours don't roll over. Paid plans start at $19 a month ($12 a month billed yearly), with no watermark, more hours, 4K and team features.

Also built: brand kits and templates, Autopilot (the best clips of new uploads queued for posting, with approval, or posting on its own only above a clip score the creator picks), back-catalogue uploads at half the hours, AI dubbing into 32 languages (in the speaker's own voice only with their consent), whole-video mode (the full video cut into captioned parts), LinkedIn PDF carousels (also downloadable as 1080×1350 images for Instagram carousels and TikTok photo posts), a content package written from each video at no cost in hours (show notes, a YouTube description with chapters, a newsletter, a blog post, and posts for X, Threads and LinkedIn), smart links that count clicks, leads and sales, Packaging Lab hook and title tests, a sponsor kit, a YouTube thumbnail and Shorts cover generator that sets a title over real frames of the clip, and post analytics from YouTube. Also: a REST API, webhooks and an MCP server for AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT. Also: client review links where clients comment on and approve clips without an account (Pro and Agency). Also: team seats with roles (owner, admin, editor, viewer, client), client workspaces for agencies, and an audit log.

## Key facts

- Caption languages: 109, each transcribed with word timing, with clip titles and hooks in the same language. 22 Indian languages are also transcribed by a model made for them, in their own script, Latin letters or mixed with English words in Latin (Hinglish).
- Translation: captions translated into any of 109 languages with the speaker's own voice kept (free, no hours), or an AI dub of the clip into any of 32 languages, in a ready-made voice or the speaker's own cloned voice.
- Clean up swear words: masked in the captions (f***), and beeped or muted in the sound; English and Hindi (Devanagari and Hinglish).
- Posting: Post and schedule straight to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Pinterest and Bluesky.
- Billing: by upload hours, counted once on the uploaded video's length; clips, exports and re-runs are unlimited inside them. One USD price worldwide.
- AI assistants: works with Claude (web, Desktop, mobile, Claude Code), ChatGPT and Cursor through the Reeltopus MCP server at https://reeltopus.com/api/mcp (sign in with OAuth or use an API key). Ask the assistant to clip a video, show the best clips, edit a clip by chat (trim, cut words, captions, framing, B-roll, brand kits and templates), show the edit history and revert a step, cut a whole video into a series, write show notes, read how posts are doing, export and schedule posts; it asks before posting. Dubbing is in the web app, not through assistants. One-line workflow: the clip_and_schedule prompt, or /reeltopus:clip-and-schedule in Claude Code. Overview for creators and agencies: https://reeltopus.com/ai-agents. Setup: https://reeltopus.com/docs/api/mcp.
- Developers: REST API, webhooks and MCP server (https://reeltopus.com/docs/api). Workflow templates (https://reeltopus.com/integrations): the n8n ones run today on n8n's own HTTP and Webhook nodes; the Zapier and Make apps aren't listed yet, so on those platforms call the API with an HTTP step and receive webhooks. The TypeScript and Python SDKs aren't published yet.
