๐Ÿš€ Getting Started

Sign up

  • Continue with Discord

    Go to /signup and choose Continue with Discord. One account works across legit2clip, legit2cloud and legit2compute.

  • Get your free credits

    Signing in with Discord, Google, GitHub or Twitch puts you on the free plan: 5 hours of video every month. At the start of each month your balance is topped up to 1,250 credits (it doesn't stack), and clips made without Pro carry a small legit2clip.com watermark. Email sign-up needs a confirmation email first, and the free credits come only with a Discord, Google, GitHub or Twitch sign-in.

  • Make your first clips

    Pick a video, choose the shape and captions, check the price and start. The How to Use tab walks through each step.

๐ŸŽ‰ 5 hours free every month: 1,250 credits covers one 5-hour video, or several shorter ones.

๐ŸŽฌ How to Use legit2clip

Turn a long video into clips

  • Pick your video

    Upload a file up to 2 GB, pick one straight from Google Drive or Dropbox, or paste the link to a Twitch or Kick past broadcast (up to 12 hours). Links from other sites, YouTube included, aren't open yet: download the video and upload the file.

  • Choose the shape

    Vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Shorts and Reels, Square 1:1 for the feed, or Landscape 16:9 for YouTube.

  • Choose a caption style and language

    Pick from 11 caption styles; each tile shows how it will look on the video. You can pick up to four styles on one job (each extra style is 25 credits). Language is detected automatically, or choose English, Spanish or French.

  • Set the clips (optional)

    Under Advanced: how many clips (leave it at 0 and the AI decides) and how long each can run (50 to 70 seconds by default; cuts snap to whole sentences). Transcript only skips the clips.

  • Check the price and start

    Before anything runs you see the exact price in credits. Confirm, and the job starts.

  • Watch it work

    The progress card shows each stage: transcribing, picking the moments, cutting the clips and burning the captions. In our demo, a 17-minute talk took about seven minutes from start to finish.

  • Get your clips

    The results page plays every clip, lets you download each one, and shows why each moment was picked, with the transcript. Download your clips when they're ready: finished files aren't kept forever.

Make a reaction video

On the Reaction page, pick the video you want to react to, describe who is reacting (or start from a preset), choose how many moments (2 to 5) and a caption style, add your sign-off, and make it. It picks the moments, writes a reaction to what was actually said, voices it, and cuts it together with captions. A reaction costs the same as clipping that video.

๐Ÿ’ณ Pricing & Credits

How pricing works

You pay per job, in credits, and 1 credit = 1ยข. There is no monthly quota, and no subscription is needed (Pro, below, is optional).

A clip job = 10 credits + 4 credits per minute of your video (length rounded up to the next whole minute) Example: a 17-minute talk, 4 clips = 82 credits ($0.82) at today's price Extra: each extra caption style +25 credits
The price comes first: every job shows its exact price before it runs. If a job fails, its credits are refunded.

Free trial

Sign in with Discord, Google, GitHub or Twitch and you get 5 hours of video free every month: your balance is topped up to 1,250 credits at the start of each month.

Watermark and Pro

Clips and reactions made without Pro carry a small legit2clip watermark and use our standard transcription model. Pro ($19/month) adds:

  • No watermark on clips and reactions
  • Our most accurate transcription model on every job, best for accents and non-English videos
  • Half price on every clip and reaction job (2ยข a minute of video)
  • The Studio editor (free with Discord sign-in until Oct 31)

Studio is free until Oct 31: sign in with Discord and you can use the Studio editor without Pro until the end of Oct 31. Jobs you run there bill your credits at the normal price, and the watermark stays unless you have Pro.

Get it on the Pro page. Cancel there any time: Pro stays on to the end of the month you paid for. Pro is on your account, so one Pro covers legit2clip and legit2cloud, and checkout shows it as legit2cloud Studio Pro.

โ“ Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take?

It depends on the video's length and how busy the network is. In our demo, a 17-minute talk took about seven minutes from start to finish.

Can I paste a YouTube link?

Not yet. Twitch and Kick past-broadcast links work; for YouTube and other sites, upload the file or pick it from Google Drive or Dropbox.

What languages are supported?

The language is detected automatically, or you can choose English, Spanish or French.

Do I need a GPU?

No. Everything runs on our network; you just need a web browser.

Is there a subscription?

Not unless you want one. You pay per job in credits, with no monthly quota. Pro ($19/month) is optional: no watermark, our most accurate transcription, half price on every clip and reaction job, and the Studio editor (free with Discord sign-in until Oct 31).

Why do my clips have a watermark?

Clips made without Pro carry a small legit2clip watermark. Buying credits doesn't remove it: credits pay for processing, and Pro ($19/month) is what removes the watermark.

What if I run out of credits?

A job your balance can't cover won't start. Buy a pack on the Credits page and start it again.

What happens if a job fails?

Its credits are refunded to your balance.

Is my video private?

Your uploads are only used to make your clips. We never sell your data or share your content for marketing. Download your clips when they're ready: finished files aren't kept forever.
