Clideo
Clideo is a collection of quick video tools for casual users that helps merge, compress, and resize videos.
About
Clideo
Clideo is like a Swiss Army knife for video tasks—but each tool is separate. Need to merge videos? There's a tool. Compress a file? Another tool. Add subtitles? Yep, different tool. It's all browser-based, super simple, and gets the job done when you need one specific thing fixed fast. No software, no account (for basic stuff), just upload and go.
The catch? It's not really "editing" in the creative sense. Each tool does one thing, so you're bouncing between them if you need multiple edits. And forget about complex projects—this is for quick fixes only. It's utility, not artistry. Perfect when you're thinking "I just need to resize this real quick," not so much for "let me craft a masterpiece." What's your need: quick fixes or creative control? For a unified experience, try tools that combine AI video trimming with sound effects and other features in one platform.

Pictory
Pictory.ai is an AI tool that turns scripts or long videos into short, branded clips—perfect for content repurposing.
About
Pictory
Pictory.ai turns your written content into video—no camera required. Drop in a blog post, script, or long-form video and it builds a complete piece using AI voiceovers, stock footage, captions, and smart scene editing. It’s built for marketers, bloggers, and business owners who need video content but don’t want to be on camera. It’s a solid solve for the “I have words but no footage” problem.
That automation comes with a trade-off: generic stock visuals and flat narration can creep in if you don’t step in and personalize. The AI’s stock selection might miss your brand tone, and the voiceovers can feel a little robotic. For best results, you’ll want to customize with your own visuals or sprinkle in branded b-roll. If you're after scale, Pictory delivers. Just know it works best when you bring your own creative seasoning to the mix.

I often try to reduce videos in three web sites and Clideo is always the one which reduces the most

Thank you so much! I was panicking for an MP3 dance when I came across your easy to use App. I will be loyal to you, my SAVIOR App.

I would rate it a Zero if possible. I used professional audio in a 3-min video, but couldn't figure out how to trim it. So I bought the 'premium' or 'pro' to download the highest quality Clideo had to offer. If there was any change, it was only for the worse! I asked for a refund. And hot nothing but harrasment.

I was able to navigate throughout the platform fairly easily. I loved the process, but the only thing I didn't like was the watermark at the end of my videos...almost forces you to pay for a plan. Other than that I've already told others about Pictory.
Cromaidz Productions
The interface is easy to navigate but AI video in general has a long way to go. It generates very generic images but if you work with it you can make it work.
Carlo Maggitti
It could have a huge potential,but it is full of bugs,it is very slow,you can't work with it,even the simplest things don't work.

Frequently asked questions
How does an AI clip maker work?
An AI clip maker scans long-form videos or podcasts using artificial intelligence to automatically identify the most engaging moments, then slices them into short clips with captions, animations, and transitions. It's a powerful way to repurpose content for platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
One thing to note is that an AI clip generator is not necessarily an AI video generator.
Can AI-generated videos be monetized on YouTube?
Yes, as long as your AI-generated videos follow YouTube's monetization guidelines and add original value—like commentary, visuals, or voiceovers—you can absolutely monetize them. AI tools help you create faster, but your creativity is still the magic ingredient.
How do I add a text-to-speech voiceover?
Most AI video editors have a text-to-speech option built in—just type your script, choose your AI voice, and click generate. It’s an easy way to add professional voiceovers to explainer videos, product demos, or tutorials without recording anything yourself.
How does text-to-video AI work?
Text-to-video AI turns written text prompts into fully edited video content—complete with visuals, animations, subtitles, and voiceovers. It automates video production so creators can go from script to video clips in minutes instead of hours.
How to switch the AI Avatar’s voice category?
Most AI avatar tools have voice categories based on tone or language—you just head to the voice settings and pick a different category (like professional, energetic, or friendly). It’s like casting the perfect voice actor, but instantly.
What are the top AI tools for generating video clips?
Top AI tools like Submagic, Pictory, and Descript make it incredibly easy to generate short clips from long-form content. They handle captions, visuals, templates, and even AI voiceovers—ideal for creators repurposing webinars, podcasts, or YouTube content into snackable, engaging videos for social media platforms.
