You already made the content. Clipping it is the job that never gets done.
A one-hour episode holds 10 to 20 moments worth posting. To find them, someone scrubs the timeline, crops each speaker and types the captions by hand.
That often takes 3 or 4 hours per episode. So most episodes get one clip, or none, and the best things you said never reach the people who scroll.
MakeClips does that work in minutes, for every episode.
