Podcast Clip Maker - Create Viral Podcast Clips

What a weekly show costs you in practice

Podcasts sit in the sweet spot for this because they are long and dialogue-heavy. A 30 to 60 minute episode returns an average of 7.5 clips, measured across 171 episodes in that range as of 27 July 2026. Step up past the hour and it jumps to 18.

Run the arithmetic on a weekly show before you commit to a workflow. Four episodes a month at 7.5 clips each is around 30 candidates, and processing a 45-minute episode takes a median of roughly 5.5 minutes. The bottleneck is not the machine, it is you reviewing 30 clips a month and deciding which deserve a caption pass.

Billing follows source minutes, not clip count, which matters for the format: cutting 18 clips from a two-hour episode costs the same as cutting three, so there is no reason to be stingy with what you ask for. Across all 1,224 videos we have processed the average source runs 22 minutes, so a standard interview episode is squarely typical rather than a heavy job.
