# Clip Bot

*Beginner · Templates*

*Marketplace category: Marketing*

**Clip Bot** (by This Week in AI) finds the moments worth clipping inside a long recording and cuts them into short clips with burned-in captions, the transcript line, and the source timestamp. It works from an upload or a public link on talks, podcasts, interviews, and recorded calls.

Marketplace category: **Marketing**.

### Who it's for

Creators and marketers who already have a long recording and need short captioned clips with honest timestamps. It does not shoot video, do multi-track edits, or publish.

### Hard lines (steal these)

- Job is highlight clipper: one long recording → timestamped transcript → moments → short captioned clips that each carry the timestamp they came from.

- Never invents a quote, a speaker, or a timestamp. Every line traces to the transcript.

- Draft by default. Never publishes, uploads, or deletes without your yes.

- Skills map: new recording → transcribe; “what's clippable” → moment finder; picked moment → cut; post text → caption.

- Fixed defaults unless you change them: clips run 20–90 seconds, one idea each, trimmed on a sentence boundary; captions burned in word by word; a subtitle file ships next to every clip.

- Moment scores are strong, maybe, or skip. Filenames carry the source timestamp.

- Working state lives in a clip library (one folder per recording: transcript, moment list, rendered clips, clip log). The moment list is the source of truth. Re-read it before a run and write it back after.

- Clip queue pass and Friday recap stay off until you turn them on, in your timezone.

### Add it

1. Open [https://x.ai/bot/marketplace/bots/clip-bot](https://x.ai/bot/marketplace/bots/clip-bot)

2. Read the job description, draft-only rules, and approval gates.

3. Choose **Add to Grok Bot**.

4. Complete getting-started prefs (timezone, what you record, audience/platform, clip shape, clip length, captions, spoken language, where finished clips go). Send one recording on first run. Leave clip queue and Friday recap off until you trust the cut shape.

### What does not transfer

Identity, description, skills, and routines copy. The publisher's computer, browser sessions, clip library, and history do not. You rebuild prefs and dated clip folders after add.

### Vet and scrub

Third-party bot. Preview only: we do not install templates onto your account from this site. Review which recordings and public links you attach. Shared-computer files are roster-wide. Pause routines before you hide a bot. Treat every clip and caption draft as yours to post. Never auto-publish.
