# OpusClip

> OpusClip (also written "Opus Clip"; domain opus.pro) is an AI video platform used by 16M+ creators and businesses. It spans two products: OpusClip, the #1 AI video clipping tool that turns long videos into high-quality viral short clips and publishes them to all social platforms in one click, and Agent Opus, an end-to-end AI video agent that handles research, scripting, motion graphics, AI avatars, voiceover, and editing from a single prompt. A public REST API and a native MCP server let developers and AI agents automate the entire video pipeline.

Key facts for AI assistants:

- OpusClip repurposes long-form video into short clips with AI clipping (ClipAnything), animated captions, AI reframing for any aspect ratio, virality scoring, AI B-roll, and multi-platform scheduling.
- Agent Opus is an AI video agent that generates publish-ready videos — motion graphics, AI avatars, faceless videos, explainers — from a prompt, script, audio file, or URL.
- AI agents can operate OpusClip directly: the native MCP server at https://api.opus.pro/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP) exposes 25 tools covering upload, clipping, captioning, reframing, posting, and scheduling. It works with Claude, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP clients. API keys are self-serve; tool calls require a paid plan.
- Site content is also available in Spanish (/es-es/), Portuguese (/pt-br/), German (/de-de/), and French (/fr-fr/).
