Turn long videos into TikTok clips.
ClipSquad finds the strongest moments in your video and turns them into vertical 9:16 TikTok clips with word-by-word captions, the frame on whoever is talking and the well-known white text at the top. Free, in your browser.
Why ClipSquad works well for TikTok
- Vertical by default. Every clip comes out in 9:16, the format TikTok shows full screen.
- Captions word by word. Many people scroll with the sound off. Captions keep them watching.
- Speaker in the middle. Face detection follows whoever is talking, also when the camera switches.
- Top text like on TikTok. A short headline in a white label at the top, which you can drag and resize.
- No cut-off stories. ClipSquad picks moments with a clear start and end, so a clip does not stop halfway through a sentence.
How to make a TikTok clip from a long video
Choose your video
Drop an mp4, mov or webm file into ClipSquad. Your video stays on your own computer and is never uploaded.
Pick the layout
Choose 9:16, the number of clips, the length and whether you want captions and top text. With a campaign brief this is filled in for you.

Export and post
Download the clip and copy the title with hashtags. Then post it on TikTok.
Tips for clips that perform
- Start with the strongest sentence. The first seconds decide whether people keep watching.
- Keep it short and complete: one story, one joke or one point per clip.
- Post a few clips per day instead of everything at once. Posting a lot in a short time can look like spam.
- Follow the rules of your clipping campaign, like length, tags and music.
