A Submagic alternative built for long videos

Submagic is a captioning editor for short videos. VisionSnip starts a step earlier: you upload the whole podcast, interview or talk, and it finds the clips worth posting, then captions them. Here's how the two compare.

Long videos are the starting point

Submagic's plans limit each video to 2, 5 or 30 minutes, which suits clips you've already cut. VisionSnip takes the whole recording, up to 3 hours on Pro, reads the transcript and picks the 30 to 60 second moments worth posting, each with a score and a reason.

Priced by minutes, not videos

Submagic counts videos: 15 a month on Starter. VisionSnip counts the minutes you upload, so a 60-minute podcast uses 60 of Plus's 300 minutes however many clips you make from it, up to 20 per video.

Filler removal on every plan

VisionSnip cuts “um”, “uh” and “hmm” from the audio, the video and the captions on every plan, including Free. On Submagic, filler word removal starts at Pro.
