**The AI video clipping MCP server.** Turn long videos into scored, captioned, vertical 9:16 short clips from any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT, VS Code, and other conformant clients). Drop in a YouTube link, a podcast, or a Twitch VOD and get publish-ready shorts back through natural conversation.

Powered by [Katto](https://katto.tech), an AI video clipper that turns long-form video (podcasts, interviews, streams, webinars) into short-form clips for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts. Katto is a flat-priced, no-credits alternative to tools like OpusClip: the Creator plan's 25-video monthly quota covers videos up to 90 minutes each. API and MCP access is included on **every plan, including the free one** (2 videos/month), not gated behind a paid or enterprise tier.

What it does

Ask your agent something like *"clip the best moments from this podcast and reframe them for TikTok"* and Katto will:

find the strongest 30 to 90 second moments in a long video and score each clip 0 to 100 on Hook, Flow, Value and Trend,
reframe to vertical 9:16 with face tracking, split-screen for two speakers, and stacked layouts for gaming,
burn animated captions (auto-captioned in 99 languages via Whisper large-v3; word-by-word timing in 41 of them, sentence-level in the rest) and optionally dub into 19 languages,
and hand back publish-ready MP4 files plus SRT caption urls.

Typical uses: repurpose a YouTube video into shorts, turn a podcast episode into clips, cut highlights from a Twitch VOD, or convert a long interview into ve
