CapCut
Choose OpusClip if your job is a steady stream of clips from recordings. Choose CapCut if your job is editing in general, with clipping as one task among many.
Descript
If the long recording never needs editing and the clips are the product, OpusClip is the narrower and cheaper buy: Starter is $15 a month for 150 credits, at 1 credit per minute of source video, and it finds, reframes, captions and posts the clips (OpusClip pricing, credits article, checked on 26 October 2026).
Riverside
Choose Riverside if your job is recording a show and publishing it with its clips. Choose OpusClip if your job is clipping whatever was recorded, wherever.
