How we compared them
We read OpusClip's and Vizard's pricing, help and store pages between 27 October and 14 November 2026. We did not run our own test of them. Vidova is our product, and it is a different kind of tool: an AI agent makes the edit for you. It is our pick if you want that, and we say where OpusClip or Vizard fits better.
Vidova: our pick when each clip needs a real edit
Vidova is an AI video editor that also makes clips. You upload the recording and ask for the clips you want. The agent transcribes the speech, finds the moments, reframes 16:9 to 9:16 by tracking the speaker's face, cuts pauses and filler words and adds captions. Each clip can get B-roll, a title or a look made for your brand.
Find the three strongest 30-second moments in this webinar. Reframe each to 9:16 on the speaker, cut the pauses, add captions and a title from what they say.
Downsides: Vidova is built around the agent, so people who want to place every clip by hand have more mature manual editors. You can try it for 7 days with 2,000 credits and no watermark. The free plan adds a watermark, exports at 720p and takes projects up to 1 minute long. Paid plans start at $19 a month, remove the watermark and export up to 4K at 60 fps.
What OpusClip does well
OpusClip finds the moments in a long video that stand alone, reframes them to vertical and adds captions. Starter costs $15 a month, and Pro costs $29 a month, or $14.50 billed yearly. Pro exports to Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
What Vizard does well
Vizard cuts long videos into short clips with auto subtitles and reframing, and it can schedule posts to social accounts. Its free plan gives 60 credits a month, and yearly billing is 50% off.
Which one should you use?
- If each clip needs a real edit, use Vidova.
