Novam Studio / Podcast clip generator
Podcast clip generator: episodes to shareable clips
A podcast episode is often an hour or more of conversation with a handful of moments that deserve to travel on their own: a strong opinion, a story, a funny exchange. Finding those moments is the slow part. A podcast clip generator should do the finding, the cutting and the captioning, and then get out of your way.
Clip Studio, part of Novam Studio, is built for exactly this kind of long, speech-heavy source. This page walks through how it handles a podcast episode and what you can configure.
Start from the episode you already have
Upload the video file of your recording, or paste a YouTube link if the episode is already published there. The Studio transcribes the full conversation with Whisper so the system works from the words, not from guesses about loudness or pauses.
If your show is video-first, you get video clips. The clip format list includes a dedicated Podcast Clips preset at 1080 by 1080, a square layout that works well in feeds, alongside vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts and landscape 16:9 for YouTube and X.
Moments picked from the transcript
After transcription, an AI model reads the conversation and selects the segments most worth clipping. Because it works on the text, clips begin and end at natural sentence boundaries. You decide how many clips you want and set a minimum and maximum length, so a weekly episode can yield a few tight 30-second teasers or a longer set of 90-second segments.
You can also write a prompt telling the tool what to look for, such as a guest's advice on a topic or the moments where the hosts disagree.
Captions that suit silent autoplay
Most people first see a clip with the sound off, which is why captions matter. Clip Studio burns captions into each clip, synced word by word from the transcript. You choose the font (for example Impact, Bebas Neue, Anton, Montserrat Bold, Oswald Bold, Bangers or DM Sans Bold), the text and outline colors, the size, and where the captions sit on the frame, with a preview before the render.
Details podcasters usually ask about
- Auto-mute profanity at the word level if you want clips that are safe for more platforms, with an allow list for words you want to keep.
- Add a music bed under the original audio at a chosen volume, from the track library or your own upload.
- Apply your show logo as a watermark on every clip.
- Render several aspect ratios from the same job, including 4:5 portrait.
- Keep a clip library so earlier episodes remain searchable.
Publish without leaving the app
Send finished clips to Drafts, let the AI write a caption for each platform in your show's voice, and schedule them to YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X or LinkedIn. Publishing runs in the cloud, so the queue continues when your computer is closed. Evergreen Loop can repost a strong clip on an interval you choose, which suits a back catalog of episodes.
If you produce more than one show, create a brand workspace for each so voice, hashtags, call to action and watermark stay separate.
Limits to know about
Clip selection is automated and works from speech, so audio-only episodes need a video or visual to go with them, and the first draft of clips will occasionally need a second pass with a different prompt or length range. Watch the clips before they go out.
Try it on your own footage. Create an account, connect a platform and run your first long video through Clip Studio.

Yes. There is a Podcast Clips preset at 1080 by 1080, and you can also render 9:16, 16:9 and 4:5.
Can I tell it what kind of moments to find?
Yes. You can write a prompt describing the topic or type of moment, and set the number of clips and their minimum and maximum length.
Can it remove swearing?
Clip Studio can auto-mute profanity using word-level timing from the transcript, and you can set an allow list.
