AI-powered clip creator for transforming podcasts

AI-powered highlight detection for short-form clips

Skip hours of trawling through a timeline. HeyGen's Video Agent and advanced AI technology analyse your podcast, assessing speech and pacing, whilst the AI clip generator identifies its strongest moments. You receive ready-to-share clips from your podcast, each forming a complete video highlight.

AI-powered highlight detection surfacing the strongest moments of a podcast as short clips.

Captions and transcription to engage viewers

Most social clips play on mute, so on-screen text is what keeps viewers watching. Accurate transcription turns speech into automatically timed captions in the AI Studio editor, whilst the built-in subtitle generator lets you customise fonts, colours and layouts to hold viewers’ attention on any social media platform.

Video editing tools for clips that capture attention

Stop re-recording a take to correct a few stumbles. With one click, AI-powered Speech Cleanup removes filler words, pauses, false starts and retakes, then HeyGen's AI video editor joins segments with seamless transitions. The result is a polished, high-quality take with no jump cuts. Review each clip in AI Studio, restyle captions, apply your brand kit and prepare vertical, square or widescreen versions for each channel.

Audiograms, reels and short-form video clips

A widescreen clip falls flat in a vertical feed. Each clip is automatically reframed as a short-form video using a reel generator for Instagram Reels, TikTok shorts and square posts, plus an audiogram for audio or video programmes. A single upload looks native across major video platforms.

A single podcast can reach well beyond its original audience. Transform any clip into more than 177 languages with accurate lip-syncing and voice cloning that preserves your tone, or use audio-only AI dubbing for a quicker turnaround. Publish high-quality video content in every market and attract new listeners without recording it again.

Create social media clips that gain widespread attention

Media clips for your podcast demonstrations

How it works

How an AI podcast clip generator works

Turn a full podcast recording into polished clips ready to post in four straightforward steps, with AI creating the first cut before you review and export.

Step 1

Upload your episode

Upload your full podcast as an audio or video file, or paste in a link. HeyGen transcribes the episode and prepares it for selecting clips.

Let AI find the clips

AI scans the full episode, analyses speech and pacing, and identifies the strongest moments for use as clips.

Step 3

Tidy up and add captions

Speech Cleanup removes filler words, pauses and false starts, then adds captions for you.

Step 4

Export and share

Export each clip in vertical, square or widescreen format, ready to post on any social media channel.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can an AI podcast clip remove filler words from podcast audio without creating choppy cuts?

Yes. Speech Cleanup detects filler words, long pauses, false starts and retakes, then uses invisible transitions to bridge the gaps seamlessly. HeyGen's video editing features let you review each edit, so the final clip sounds smooth and looks like a clean single take.

Do I have to appear on camera to create podcast clips?

No. You can create podcast clips from an existing recording or produce a faceless video version with captions, B-roll and AI visuals. With more than 1,100 avatars and Avatar IV, you can create content without a camera and continue posting even during weeks when you do not film.

Can I turn an audio-only podcast into video clips or audiograms?

Yes. Upload an audio-only episode and HeyGen can turn selected highlights into video clips or audiograms with captions and visuals, ready for review and export to social media.

Can I turn one episode into clips in other languages?

Yes. HeyGen supports more than 177 languages, so you can clip a single recording and localise it with accurate AI lip sync whilst preserving the original voice tone. It is a quick way to broaden your podcast's reach and attract new listeners worldwide without recording it again.

Why use HeyGen rather than a basic podcast clipping app?

Most clipping apps stop at trimming. Beyond highlights, you get speech clean-up, branded captions, avatars and translation in one text-to-video platform used by OpenAI, Shopify and HubSpot. It helps you streamline your podcast production process and maximise your podcast's output.

Is the AI podcast clip maker free?

Yes. HeyGen offer a Free plan with no credit card required, so you can try the podcast clip maker at no cost. For current paid-plan features and limits, see HeyGen pricing https://www.heygen.com/pricing.

How do I export clips for Instagram with my own branding?

Review the clip in AI Studio, then apply your logo, colours, fonts, intro and outro using a brand kit. Export a vertical version for Instagram, or choose square or widescreen for other channels.

Can I create Instagram clips from a webinar or video?

Yes. Upload a long webinar, interview or screen recording, or paste a link. HeyGen identify the highlights and turn them into short, captioned clips that you can review and export for Instagram or other channels.

How can I create engaging podcast clips for Instagram?

Upload your recording or paste a link, then let HeyGen identify the highlights. Review the clips in AI Studio, adjust the captions and branding, and export a vertical version for Instagram.
