Features & Capabilities

How accurate is the AI transcription?

Our Whisper AI transcription achieves 99% accuracy across multiple languages. Transcriptions are automatically generated for every video and are used to identify viral moments and create captions for clips.

What is the viral score?

Each generated clip receives a viral potential score (0-100) based on AI analysis of engagement factors like pacing, emotional peaks, hooks, and content relevance. Higher scores indicate clips with greater potential for engagement and sharing.

Can I manually edit clips after generation?

Currently, ClipFactory generates clips automatically. However, all clips are downloaded as standard video files that you can edit further in any video editor like Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve.

Does ClipFactory support multiple languages?

Yes! Our Whisper AI transcription supports 99+ languages. Viral detection works across all supported languages, making ClipFactory ideal for international creators.

Can I download clips without watermarks?

Yes! All clips generated by ClipFactory are delivered without watermarks, ready to post directly to social media platforms.

Content & Privacy

Who owns the clips I generate?

You retain full ownership of all videos you upload and all clips generated from them. ClipFactory does not claim any rights to your content. You can use, modify, and distribute your clips freely.

Is my content private and secure?

Yes. Your videos and clips are stored securely on Cloudflare R2 with encryption in transit and at rest. Only you can access your content. We never use your videos for training or share them with third parties.

How long do you keep my videos?

Videos are retained while your account is active. When you delete a video, it is permanently removed from our servers within 30 days. Upon account deletion, all content is removed within 30 days.

What about copyright and intellectual property?
