Question 1

How long does processing actually take?

Accepted Answer

For a typical 30–60 minute video, expect 2–5 minutes end-to-end: transcription, viral moment detection, clip cutting, and caption prep. Shorter videos (under 15 min) often finish in under 90 seconds. Pro and founding members get priority queue placement. You'll see real-time progress in your dashboard — no guessing.

Question 2

What happens if my audio quality is bad?

Accepted Answer

Clipiha uses OpenAI Whisper, which handles background noise, room echo, and moderate compression well. For very noisy audio (wind, crowd noise, music beds), we apply automatic noise reduction before transcription. If Whisper's confidence drops below 80% on a segment, we flag it in the editor so you can review before export. Heavily distorted or muffled audio may need a manual pass — we'll tell you upfront rather than ship garbage captions.

Question 3

How does Clipiha handle multi-speaker videos?

Accepted Answer

Our pipeline detects speaker changes using audio diarization and visual face tracking. For podcasts and interviews, Clipiha identifies who is speaking and prioritizes the active speaker in AI reframe. Caption highlights follow the dominant voice in each clip. For panel discussions with rapid back-and-forth, you can switch to manual subject tracking in the editor to lock onto any speaker.

Question 4

What video formats does Clipiha support?

Accepted Answer

Clipiha accepts MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, and WebM files up to 4GB. You can also paste any YouTube URL and we'll fetch the video automatically via our processing pipeline.

Question 5

How does the AI reframe and face tracking work?

Accepted Answer

Our AI reframe uses object detection, face landmark tracking, and active speaker detection. It smoothly follows the primary speaker across every frame. You can switch to manual tracking mode to instruct the AI exactly what subject to follow, or lock onto any moving object in the scene.

Question 6

Can I customize the captions?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Choose from 4 pre-built styles (MrBeast, Hormozi, Minimal Clean, Kinetic Wave) or build your own with the full caption editor: font, size, color, gradient fills, stroke weight, shadow depth, and 10+ animation presets including bounce, pop, wave, and kinetic.

Question 7

What platforms can I export to?

Accepted Answer

Clipiha exports in TikTok (9:16), Instagram Reels (9:16), YouTube Shorts (9:16), LinkedIn (1:1 and 4:5), and Twitter/X (16:9 and 1:1) formats. You can also export raw 4:3 or 16:9 for longer-form repurposing.

Question 8

How accurate is the transcription?

Accepted Answer

Clipiha uses OpenAI Whisper with word-level timestamps. Accuracy is typically 95%+ for clear audio in English. We support 50+ languages and include automatic speaker diarization to distinguish multiple voices.

Question 9

Is there a free plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Starter plan is free forever — 3 videos per month, up to 30 minutes each, 10 clips per video at 720p. No credit card required to sign up. Founding members on Pro or Studio lock in discounted rates for life.

Question 10

Why is Clipiha better than Opus Clip for my workflow?

Accepted Answer

Three things Opus Clip users tell us they wish existed: faster processing (we prioritize sub-5-min turnaround), honest handling of bad audio (confidence flags instead of silent failures), and true multi-speaker tracking for podcasts. Plus founding member pricing means you pay less now and forever — not just a trial discount.

Question 11

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

All uploads are encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Videos are stored in isolated cloud storage and are never shared or used to train AI models. You can delete your data at any time from your dashboard.
