How we rank

Every one of these short-form video clippers is scored on the same 8 weighted criteria (scorecard v1), from the vendor's published data. 37 of the 40 listed have enough verified data to be ranked; a tool with under 60% of the weight covered is listed but not ranked. Nobody gets custom weights, including our own products.

Heaviest criteria

  • Entry price · Core25%

    Price per month of the cheapest paid plan, against the prices of other short-form video clippers on the same billing basis (monthly-billed prices against monthly, annual-billed against annual).

  • Free plan or trial · Core15%

    Whether you can use the tool before paying: a free plan, or failing that a free trial, as shown on the vendor's pricing page.

  • Verified features · Core15%

    How many of the 8 features we track for this category the vendor's own pages verifiably show (ai clip selection, automatic captions, auto reframe to vertical, virality score, publish or schedule to social networks, brand kit, no watermark on paid plans, team access). This counts verified features only: a tool that documents less scores lower here, and only here.

  • Pricing transparency · Core10%

    How much of the pricing is public: the share of plans with a published price ("contact sales" counts against), and whether there are at least 3 published tiers.

  • API, integrations and export · Core10%

    Whether a public API exists, how many integrations the vendor states, and whether the vendor documents a way to export your data.
