OpusClip makes the clip. Convia builds the campaign around it, writes the posts a clip cannot carry, and publishes both to eight platforms.
Facts about OpusClip last checked 2026-09-20.
The short answer
OpusClip finds the good minute inside your long video and turns it into a vertical clip with captions. It is the best-known tool for that and it earns the position.
It also publishes those clips to the short-form platforms, which is where the overlap with Convia is real rather than imagined. The difference is scope: OpusClip publishes the clip it made, to the platforms that clip suits. Convia takes the whole episode and builds a campaign across eight platforms, including the written posts a clip cannot carry.
Convia connects to OpusClip, so this is mostly a question of whether clips are your entire distribution strategy or one part of it.

What OpusClip does well
- Finding the moment. Working out which segment of a long video stands on its own is the core capability, and it is good at it.
- Automatic vertical reframing. Tracking the speaker and reframing to vertical without manual keyframing saves real time.
- Captions. Accurate, styled and burned in without a separate step.
- Ranking the clips. Whether or not you trust a virality score, ranking gives you a starting point instead of a folder of options.
- Speed. Upload a long video, get clips back quickly, with very little to configure.

Either way the clips come back as candidates for you to review, and the ones you keep become part of the campaign Convia builds rather than a separate workflow you manage on the side.
