Turn your podcast into shorts
SpikeReel turns a podcast episode, audio or video, into captioned vertical clips ready for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts. It transcribes the episode, finds the moments worth clipping, reframes around whoever's talking, and burns in captions automatically.
Built for how podcasts actually get clipped
A 90-minute conversation might have six moments worth posting. Finding them by scrubbing the whole episode is the part that eats an afternoon, SpikeReel does that pass for you.
Works from audio or video
Upload the raw recording, video or audio-only, or paste a link. SpikeReel handles both the same way.
Finds the moments
The AI reads the full transcript and surfaces the segments most worth posting, so you're not relistening to the whole episode.
Reframes for vertical
Clips are recomposed to 9:16 and framed around whoever's talking, ready for phone screens.
Animated captions
Word-by-word captions in every language, so clips play cleanly with the sound off.
Virality scoring
Each moment is scored so you know which clips are worth posting first.
Edit & schedule
Fine-tune wording, framing and captions, then line clips up to post across platforms.
Why clipping every episode by hand doesn't scale
A weekly show means a new episode to relisten to every single week, hunting for the six or seven moments worth cutting into clips, then trimming, reframing and captioning each one by hand. That's easily half a day of editing before a single clip goes out, on top of actually recording the show.
SpikeReel runs that pass automatically the moment you upload or link the episode: it transcribes the conversation, ranks the moments worth posting, and hands you clips already reframed around whoever's talking and captioned, so editing a week's worth of clips takes minutes instead of an afternoon.

Podcast clipping, answered
＋ － Can it clip audio-only podcasts?
Yes. Upload the raw audio file (mp3 and other common formats) or the video recording if you have one, SpikeReel transcribes it and produces captioned vertical clips either way.
＋ － How does it find which moments to clip?
It transcribes the full episode and scores segments on how likely they are to hold attention, hooks, punchlines, strong opinions, so you get a ranked shortlist instead of scrubbing the whole conversation yourself.
＋ － Does it work for co-hosted or interview shows?
Yes. It reframes each clip around whoever's talking, so multi-speaker conversations still come out centered and watchable in vertical.
＋ － Is it free to try?
Yes, start free with no credit card and see the quality on a real episode before paying for more processing minutes.
＋ － Does it caption other languages?
Yes, captions render correctly in every language, right-to-left and non-Latin scripts included.
＋ － What can I upload?
A video or audio file directly, or paste a link. SpikeReel handles long-form conversational content best, interviews, co-hosted shows, solo episodes and panel discussions.
