Frequently asked
How does getvivix turn a podcast into shorts?+
Caption Studio runs Whisper on your uploaded video, transcribes every word with timing, and lets you scrub the timeline to grab the moments worth clipping. Then it burns in captions sized for vertical video and exports a 9:16 MP4 ready for Shorts / TikTok / Reels.
Do I need to do video editing first?+
No. Upload a video file — MP4, MOV, WebM, or AVI. (Only have an audio-only recording? Export or convert it to video first — most recording and editing tools do this in one click.) Pick the segments. Caption Studio handles the rest — captions, vertical re-frame, export.
How accurate are the captions?+
Whisper-based, around 95–98% accurate on clear audio. Mistakes are easy to fix — click any caption and edit the text, drag the timing handles, save.
How much does it cost?+
Caption Studio uses "clip credits" — separate from regular generation credits, and spent once per transcription, not per export or re-style. Free signup includes 1 clip credit plus 3 normal credits. Paid plans add clip credits every month: Standard 80, Pro 120, Pro Plus 240, Ultimate 400.
What languages?+
Whisper supports 90+ languages for transcription and captions — including the language of the source audio. The getvivix site UI itself ships in 16 languages.
Can I add voice-over or B-roll?+
Yes. Generate voice-over using getvivix TTS (ElevenLabs Flash, MiniMax Speech, xAI TTS) or generate B-roll with the video models, then layer in Caption Studio.
Is this an AI podcast clip generator I can try for free?+
Yes. Signing up gives you 3 normal credits plus 1 clip credit, with no card required. The clip credit is what powers Caption Studio — one full Whisper transcription, with unlimited free re-exports and re-styling afterward. The 3 normal credits run any of the 100+ image, video, and audio models for voice-over or B-roll. You see the exact credit cost before every generation, so nothing is a surprise.
How do I turn a podcast into shorts with AI automatically?+
Upload the episode, and Caption Studio transcribes it with Whisper so you can read the whole thing and jump to clip-worthy lines. Pick your in and out points, choose a caption style, and getvivix auto-crops to vertical 9:16 and burns the captions in. You stay in control of which moments become shorts — the AI handles transcription, framing, and captioning.
Which AI clipper finds the best moments from a podcast?+
getvivix gives you the full Whisper transcript with timestamps, plus a "Pick Clip For Me" option that scans the whole episode and returns ranked candidate moments if you want a starting point. Prefer to choose yourself? Click any line to jump there, set the boundaries, and export. For long episodes, 30 to 90 second clips tend to perform best on Shorts, TikTok, and Reels.
Can I use the clips commercially?+
Yes. Paid plans include a commercial-use license, so clips you export for a brand, a sponsor, or a monetized channel are cleared for that use. The free tier is meant for trying the tool. Every plan shows the exact credit cost before you transcribe.
