Clipchat records your screen, webcam, microphone and sound, along with everything you click and type. It then turns that into finished video without you opening an editor.

​
Record

Anything you pause over is never recorded, and the recording is stitched back together seamlessly when you stop. Talk through the edit while you work. Saying that a take was bad, or that a section should come out, is enough: Clipchat hears it and acts on it when it plans the edit.

​
What happens when you stop

When you stop, Clipchat asks whether to Auto Edit the recording or Discard it. Auto Edit runs three steps:
  1. Transcribe. Clipchat writes down everything you said.
  2. Watch. It works out what is happening on screen, section by section.
  3. Plan. The agent decides what to keep, what to cut and how to title it.
The editor then opens on a live preview of the cut. Nothing is exported yet — review it, fix anything by hand or in chat (see Review & refine), and press Export when you are happy. The mp4 is made on your computer, and publishing (see below) can follow automatically. A Cancel button sits in the editor’s header while any of these steps runs. Cancelling keeps everything already produced — the transcript, the scene labels, any videos already exported — so resuming only redoes what is missing. The same is true if something goes wrong partway: run it again and Clipchat picks up where it left off rather than starting over.

​
What you get

A recording can produce as many videos as you want, each with its own shape:
  • 16:9 widescreen, for YouTube
  • 9:16 vertical, for Reels, Shorts and TikTok
  • 1:1 square
By default you get a widescreen cut of the whole thing plus a few vertical shorts, each covering one moment and titled accordingly. Ask for more, fewer, or different shapes and Clipchat will produce those instead. Zooms follow what you were actually doing, because Clipchat knows where you clicked.

​
Settings that shape the edit

  • Backdrop. The gradient or image behind your recording.
  • Brand. A small logo shown on every frame.
  • Edit prompt. Standing instructions applied to every recording, such as a house style for titles or a target length.
  • Auto-edit after recording. Governs scripted stops (Stream Deck and the command line): whether they run the whole edit unattended. Interactive stops always ask first.

​
Publish automatically

Choose a publish workflow in Settings and every finished video is sent to that Runchat workflow along with its title, description and shape (16:9, 9:16 or 1:1). The shape is what lets one workflow route each video to the right place, sending the widescreen cut to YouTube and the vertical ones to your social accounts. Anywhere Runchat can reach is a valid destination, and if one video fails to post the rest still go out.
