Good to know
This advanced tool is included with Pro, or available using free account trials. Sign in to start. Only the first authorized export of a task uses a trial; previews and failed processing do not.
- A run can produce up to 100 clips. Vertical cropping can remove content near the sides. This tool splits by time; it does not detect highlights or add subtitles.
