Watch it work on a real episode

This is an actual RoarCut job — an hour-long podcast in, and the exact moment it found, reframed, and captioned. Nothing staged.

I'm not confusing nothing, because you don't know.

04:29

You thought that all I was was a magician or whatever.

04:32

I said musician, not magician.

04:37

I don't think. I know.

04:44

Suki, I said musician. And I think you are a musician.

04:47

No baby, I do music.

Moment found · 04:26 → 05:02 · Clip #1

Finds the moment in an hour of talk

RoarCut scored the transcript of this 59-minute episode and pulled the exchange at 04:26 — the punchline, not the noise. These are the real lines.

Delivers three ready-to-post clips

All three clips from this one episode — moments found at 04:26, 22:51, and 55:44, each reframed, captioned, and ready to download.

I built RoarCut because creating short clips from long videos took too much repetitive editing. The goal is simple: paste a link, let RoarCut find the moments, and download clips you can publish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have other questions? Contact us at support@roarcut.app

What does one processing minute mean?

One processing minute covers one started minute of source video. For example, a 10-minute-and-20-second video uses 11 processing minutes.

How many clips does RoarCut create from one video?

RoarCut creates up to three clips from each processed video. The number may vary when the source does not contain enough suitable moments.

What types of videos work best?

RoarCut works best with speech-focused content such as podcasts, interviews, educational videos, commentary, webinars, sports, and talking-head videos. Videos with little dialogue may produce less useful results.

Which languages are supported?

English is currently the reliably supported language for transcription, moment selection, and captions.

Does RoarCut work with unlisted YouTube videos?

Yes. Unlisted videos are supported as long as they are accessible through the YouTube link and do not require a private account permission.

What happens if processing fails?

If a job fails because of a RoarCut processing error, the minutes charged for that job are restored automatically. You are not charged for failed platform processing.

Do unused monthly minutes roll over?

No. Monthly plan minutes reset at each successful renewal, and unused minutes do not carry over to the next billing period.

Do top-up minutes expire?

No. Unused top-up minutes do not expire while your account remains available. They are used after any available monthly plan minutes.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. You can cancel future renewals from the billing portal at any time. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period.

Do the exported clips include a watermark?

No. RoarCut exports do not include a watermark, including clips created with free processing minutes.

What is the maximum supported video length?

The maximum supported source-video length is 90 minutes. Source videos must be at least 5 minutes long.

Can I edit the generated clips before downloading?

Not currently. You can choose the reframing and caption style before processing, then preview and download the generated clips when they are ready.

Clip it. Post it. Grow.
