What our research says

Flowjin

A sensible mid-market clipper for podcasters who also want scheduling, and one of the few that treats audio-only shows as a first-class input. Clip-selection quality trails the category leader, so you will re-cut more of them by hand.

Pros

Free tier gives a real 60 minutes to evaluate, not a two-clip teaser
Transcript editor is faster than a timeline for talk-heavy content
Creator tier's 3,600 minutes a month is generous for the price
Unused minutes roll over for a month instead of vanishing at renewal

Cons

The 60 free minutes are one-off, not monthly
Starter caps exports at 1080p and 150 minutes, a big step down from Creator
Starter projects expire after 60 days, so old source files disappear
Small Toronto team with no public API and limited integration surface

OpusClip

The default choice for turning a podcast or webinar into shorts, provided you accept that a human still has to reject a good share of the clips it picks. Pro now costs half as much on annual billing, which makes it the plan to compare against rivals; the free tier is for judging quality, not for publishing.

Pros

Reframing and animated captions are good enough to post without touch-up
Clip score gives a usable first-pass ordering of candidates
Free tier is a real plan, not a trial, so output quality is checkable first
Pro exports to Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve and costs $14.50 a month on annual billing

Cons

Free exports carry a watermark, allow no editing and stop being exportable after three days
Clip selection still needs manual review; the score is a hint, not a verdict
Starter is monthly-only, so the annual discount applies only from Pro up
Full API access and custom integrations sit behind quote-only Business; Pro gets limited API access
