The Opus Clip alternative where your minutes never expire

Minutes you pay for never expire
Opus Clip credits on a monthly plan expire after 60 days. ClipMaster tokens roll over with no end date, top-up packs included, so minutes from a quiet month are still there the next.

Captions you can fix word by word
Click any caption word to correct the transcription or retime it to 0.05 seconds, pick one of 15 presets with karaoke mode, then add GIFs, emoji and punch zoom. The clip leaves ready to post.
