ClipRender is an automated video production platform launching Summer 2026. You provide raw assets (images, video clips, audio, character renders) along with a script and editing rules, and ClipRender assembles a fully finished video automatically.

There is no timeline to drag clips around on. You define what the video should look like through a rules engine, and ClipRender handles every cut, transition, subtitle, and effect. Think of it as a render pipeline you configure once and reuse across hundreds of videos.

ClipRender is designed for anyone who produces videos at scale and wants to eliminate manual editing:

• Solo creators: YouTube channels, TikTok, Shorts, Reels. Batch-produce a week of content in one sitting.
• Agencies: Produce client videos at 97%+ margin. White-label output, unlimited workspaces on Business plans.
• Developers: Trigger renders from your own app via REST API or connect an AI agent through the MCP server.
• Educators: Turn lecture scripts into polished course videos with consistent branding.

No. ClipRender replaces the traditional editing workflow entirely. You never touch a timeline. Instead, you configure editing rules once (or pick a built-in preset like Cinematic, Documentary, or Social Short), provide your assets and script, and the platform renders the final video.

If you want fine-grained control, the rules engine gives you access to 290+ settings covering transitions, captions, color grading, audio ducking, Ken Burns zoom, and more, but the defaults are production-ready out of the box.

ClipRender is launching Summer 2026. Founding members who purchase the presale will have their Pro access activated the day the platform goes live.

Most video tools give you a timeline and expect you to edit manually. ClipRender takes the opposite approach: you never edit at all. You write a script, define editing rules (or use a preset), point it at your asset library, and the platform produces the final video end-to-end.

Key differences:

• No timeline. Rules-based rendering means every video follows your visual language automatically.
• AI asset matching. ClipRender analyzes your script and picks the best assets from your library for each scene.
• Built-in stock media. Pull from Pexels, Pixabay, and Coverr directly. No separate subscription needed.
• API-first. Trigger renders programmatically, connect AI agents via MCP, or build custom workflows with webhooks.
• GPU cloud rendering. A 10-minute video renders in 2-4 minutes. No local hardware required.

Render time depends on video length, resolution, and the complexity of effects. A typical 10-minute 1080p video renders in 2-4 minutes on GPU cloud infrastructure. Longer videos scale linearly. The per-minute cost actually drops because fixed overhead (AI planning, container startup) is amortized over more output.

All paid plans include test renders: 720p, watermarked previews that use the identical AI pipeline at reduced quality. You see exactly what the final render will produce without spending any render minutes.

ClipRender supports multiple aspect ratios and resolutions:

• 16:9 horizontal: 1080p and 4K. YouTube, podcasts, courses.
• 9:16 vertical: 1080x1920. TikTok, Reels, Shorts.
• 1:1 square: Instagram posts, ads.

Output is MP4 with H.264 or H.265 hardware-accelerated encoding. Custom resolutions are available on Business plans.

Yes. ClipRender's re-render engine lets you swap a single asset, change a subtitle, or adjust a scene's timing, then re-render only that segment. The rest of the video is preserved from cache, so the process is fast.

Every paid plan includes 5 free re-renders per video at zero cost. Re-renders skip the AI planning pipeline entirely and only reprocess the scenes you changed, so they are significantly faster than a full render.

Editing rules are a JSON-based configuration that controls every visual and audio decision in your render. Instead of manually editing a timeline, you define rules like:

• Transition style and duration between scenes
• Subtitle font, animation, and positioning
• Color grading LUT and intensity
• Ken Burns zoom behavior on images
• Background music volume ducking
• Sound effect triggers and timing

You set it once and every video follows the same visual language. There are 290+ configurable settings in the engine. Built-in presets (Cinematic, Documentary, Talking Head, Social Short, Podcast Clip) make it easy to get started without touching the JSON directly.

Test renders are free preview renders included with every paid plan. They output a 720p, watermarked version of your video so you can check that your editing rules, asset matching, transitions, and captions look right before committing render minutes to a full render.

Test renders use the exact same AI pipeline as full renders (same asset selection, same scene planning, same effects) just at reduced output quality. Monthly allocations: Starter gets 10, Pro gets 15, Business gets 30.

Each plan has a per-render duration cap based on the types of content that plan is designed for:

• Starter: 45 minutes. Covers 99% of YouTube videos, highlight reels, and ads.
• Pro: 2 hours. Full podcasts, webinars, course chapters, long-form YouTube.
• Business: No limit. Agency workflows with unpredictable content lengths.

These caps are per individual render, not monthly totals. If your content outgrows your plan's cap, upgrading to the next tier unlocks longer durations.

The asset library supports 50+ file formats across six categories:

• Images: PNG, JPG, WEBP, SVG, GIF
• Video: MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WEBM
• Audio: MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG
• Sound effects: MP3, WAV. Auto-classified by duration and content
• Fonts: TTF, OTF. For custom subtitle and overlay typography
• LUTs: .cube, .3dl. For color grading

Every asset is automatically analyzed by AI on upload across 40+ metadata dimensions: visual content, mood, technical specs, and more. You can also add your own tags for precise search.

When you enable auto-asset matching, ClipRender's AI reads your script and automatically selects the most relevant assets from your library for each scene. It considers tags, visual similarity, mood, and context to make the best match.

You can also set the asset source to external stock, which pulls directly from free stock platforms (Pexels, Pixabay, Coverr) at no extra cost. Or use a mix of your own library and stock footage. You can always override individual scene assets manually if needed.

Storage depends on your plan:

• Starter: 100 GB (expandable to 1 TB with add-ons)
• Pro: 500 GB (expandable to 2 TB)
• Business: 1 TB (expandable to 5 TB)

Storage add-ons start at $4/mo for 50 GB. Rendered videos are stored for 30 days by default. Source assets persist in your library until you delete them.

Workspaces let you organize assets, editing rules, and renders into separate projects. Each workspace has its own asset library, rule presets, and render history. Perfect for managing multiple YouTube channels, client projects, or content brands from a single account.

• Starter: 3 workspaces, 2,000 assets each
• Pro: 10 workspaces, 10,000 assets each
• Business: Unlimited workspaces and assets

ClipRender provides a full REST API with a TypeScript SDK. You authenticate with an API key (generated in your dashboard) and can trigger renders, upload assets, manage rules, and poll status, all programmatically.

A single POST /v1/renders call with your script, rules preset, and options is all it takes to start a render. Webhooks notify you when it is done. API access is available on Pro ($99/mo) and Business ($299/mo) plans.

The MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets AI agents like Claude, GPT, or Cursor interact with ClipRender directly. Your agent can upload assets, configure editing rules, trigger renders, and download finished videos, all through natural language.

Setup is one line in your editor's MCP config file. It is the fastest way to build fully autonomous video production pipelines without writing integration code. Available on Pro and Business plans.

Yes. You can register a webhook URL for each render. ClipRender sends a POST request to your endpoint when the render completes (or fails), including the download URL and full metadata. Webhooks are available on Pro and Business plans, which include full API access.

Yes. Rate limits scale with your plan:

• Pro: 300 requests/min, up to 3 concurrent renders
• Business: 1,000 requests/min, up to 3 concurrent renders (scaling post-launch)
• Enterprise: Custom limits

Starter plans do not include API access. All features are available through the dashboard. If you need higher limits, contact us about Enterprise pricing.

Yes. The batch rendering API lets you submit multiple render jobs in a single request. Credits are reserved upfront for the entire batch, and each render in the batch processes independently. If any job fails, its credits are refunded automatically.

This is ideal for agencies producing dozens of client videos, content channels batch-producing a week of uploads, or automated pipelines where an AI agent generates scripts and triggers renders in sequence.

When ClipRender launches in Summer 2026, four subscription tiers will be available:

• Starter: $49/mo ($39/mo annual). Dashboard-only access, 3 workspaces, 100 GB storage, ~245 included render minutes, 10 test renders/month. Designed for solo creators.
• Pro: $99/mo ($79/mo annual). Full API access, MCP server, webhooks, 10 workspaces, 500 GB storage, ~495 included render minutes, 15 test renders/month. Designed for multi-channel creators and developers.
• Business: $299/mo ($239/mo annual). Unlimited workspaces and assets, 1 TB storage, ~1,495 included render minutes, 30 test renders/month, no per-render duration cap. Designed for agencies and teams.
• Enterprise: Custom pricing, custom limits, dedicated support.

Annual billing saves about 20% on all plans (effectively 2 months free). The presale at $149 for 6 months of Pro is the cheapest way to get started.

Presale purchases: Full refund anytime before launch, or automatically if ClipRender does not launch within 12 months of your purchase. No questions asked.

Subscription plans (post-launch): 14-day money-back guarantee from the date you subscribe. If ClipRender is not the right fit, contact support within the first 14 days for a full refund.

When your included monthly minutes are used up, you have two options:

• Boost Packs: One-time minute bundles that never expire. Start at $5 for 30 minutes and go up to $140 for 1,200 minutes (saving up to 42% vs standard overage rates). Boost minutes work at the same flat rate for both short-form and long-form content.
• Overage billing: If you have no Boost balance, additional renders are charged at your plan's overage rate (starting at $0.20/min for short-form, $0.30/min for long-form on Starter). Higher tiers get discounted overage rates.

Boost Pack minutes are consumed before overage billing kicks in. Your included plan minutes reset every month.

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account dashboard.

• Upgrades take effect immediately. You are charged the prorated difference for the remainder of your billing cycle.
• Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period. You keep your current plan's features until then.

You are never locked in. All plans are month-to-month unless you choose annual billing for the 20% discount.
