What's the best video editor for turning podcast episodes into social clips?

Repurposing a podcast episode into short clips is really a captioning and cropping problem more than a creative-editing one — you're finding the best 60 seconds, cropping the video podcast recording to vertical, and adding captions so it works muted on TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. EseCut is built for exactly that loop.

Because most podcast video is a static two-camera or webcam recording, the timeline work is minimal; the value is in fast auto captions and quick 9:16 cropping so one long episode becomes five or six clips in under an hour instead of an afternoon in desktop software.

• Crop widescreen podcast video to 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts fast
• Auto captions styled for vertical clips, since most are watched muted
• Cut multiple clips from one episode without re-importing footage each time
• Free, no-install workflow — no separate purchase for the clipping step
