StarZero
understands context.

StarZero reviews the transcript before the captions are burned in, so names, references and punctuation come out right. Transcripts and captions work in 100+ languages.

Max Shrek-like Max Schreck-like

Cage was talking about Max Schreck, the actor who played the silent-film Nosferatu. StarZero read the line in context, the way a careful editor would, and fixed the name.

Notes in,
new cut out.

Leave notes on the clip like you would in a Frame.io review, press Send, and the new version comes back.

Every change is StarZero's own work on this clip, from one review session on October 13, 2026. The notes are shortened and the waits are sped up.

One story
from many episodes.

The Podcast Clipper currently clips from a single episode. Add multiple videos to a StarZero Library (for example, every episode of a podcast) and ask an Agent to find the threads that run across them.

This is real data from 20VC's five-episode coverage of the AI startup Instinct, through its $1B raise.

From a link
to clips that win.

  1. Drop in an episode

    Paste a YouTube or podcast link, or upload your own file.

  2. Tune the agent

    Set the clip count, length, aspect ratio, pacing, captions and any custom requests. Or let the agent decide.

  3. Change anything

    Write notes to the agent the way you would on a Frame.io review, and it does the work straight away: a tighter intro, bigger captions, motion graphics or music.

  4. Post everywhere

    Captioned, reframed clips sized for TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn, ready to review and download.

The short answers

How long until I get clips?
The first clips usually land 20 to 40 minutes after your episode finishes uploading.
What video formats do you support?
StarZero reads 53 video formats (MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI, HEVC, WebM, MXF) and 26 audio formats (MP3, AAC, WAV, FLAC, OGG). You can also paste a link from YouTube, Facebook, Google Drive, Dropbox or LinkedIn.
Can I change a clip after it's made?
Yes. Ask the agent for any change in your own words, like a tighter ending, bigger captions, music, a name card or a square version, and it sends back the new cut.
How do captions work?
Pick a caption style and it's burned into every clip. Every style can be customized to match your brand, and every word is editable if you want to tweak one.
Which aspect ratios can I export?
Choose one when you start: 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn, 4:5 or 1:1 for feeds, or 16:9 for YouTube. Every clip in the project comes back in that ratio, ready to download.
Does it handle two or more people on screen?
Yes. For multi-person episodes it tracks the active speaker and can lay out a split screen so everyone stays in frame.
What languages does it cover?
Transcripts and captions work in 100+ languages, from English and Spanish to Cantonese.
