Quick take
- Upload a long video and get a batch of vertical, captioned shorts with the best moments picked for you.
- Overlaps heavily with Opus Clip. Vizard is cheaper on yearly billing and includes scheduling to 6 accounts on Creator.
- Credits are minutes of uploaded video, so a weekly 60-minute podcast uses about 240 credits a month.
- The free plan is fine for testing but exports at 720p and deletes videos after 3 days.
What is Vizard?
Vizard turns a long video, like a podcast, webinar or YouTube video, into short clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Upload the video or paste a link and its AI picks the most interesting moments, crops them to vertical, keeps the speaker in frame and adds captions.
You can then tidy each clip in its editor: change the caption style, highlight keywords, add emojis, B-roll and your brand template, translate subtitles, and schedule or post straight to your social accounts. A newer Vizard Agent takes instructions in a chat. There's an API for automating it.
It does much the same job as Opus Clip. You pay in credits, where 1 credit is 1 minute of uploaded video, so long recordings use them up quickly.
