Polarcut

PolarCut helps creators, media teams, and businesses turn long-form videos into short-form content without spending hours manually finding and editing clips. Upload existing footage, let the AI identify engaging moments, and generate multiple short clips ready for social platforms.

The platform is built around content repurposing rather than creating videos from scratch. It analyzes long videos, finds shareable sections, adds captions and other short-form elements, and prepares clips for platforms such as TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels. The focus is on producing more content quickly from footage you already have.

Key Features

Automatic Clip Generation

Turn long-form video into multiple short clips automatically.

PolarCut analyzes uploaded footage and identifies sections that can be repurposed into short-form content, reducing the amount of manual searching and cutting required.

AI Highlight Detection

Use AI to identify moments that are likely to work as standalone clips.

This helps creators move from a long recording to a collection of potential social clips without watching and marking every section manually.

Captions & Animated Captions

Add captions designed for short-form viewing.

The platform supports both standard and animated captions, helping make spoken content easier to follow in social feeds.

Virality Scores

Each generated reel receives a virality score, giving creators another signal for deciding which clips to prioritize for publication.

Multi-Format Export

Prepare clips for different social platforms and formats.

This makes it easier to repurpose a single long-form video across TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and other social channels.

Up to 4K Export

The listed plan supports exports of up to 4K, allowing creators and teams to retain higher-quality source material in their finished clips.

Editor Export

Send generated clips directly to professional editing tools for additional work.

Supported editors include:

• Adobe Premiere Pro
• Final Cut Pro
• DaVinci Resolve

This provides a workflow between automated clipping and more detailed manual editing when required.

Batch Clip Generation

Generate multiple clips from a single long-form video, with support for 10+ clips per video.

This makes PolarCut particularly useful for teams trying to turn one recording into a larger library of social content.

Built For Content Teams

PolarCut is designed for people who need to produce short-form content consistently from existing video.

It is particularly suited to:

• Content creators
• Media teams
• Agencies
• Businesses
• Social media teams
• Creator teams
• Teams repurposing long-form video

Common Use Cases

Repurposing Long Videos

Human-Guided Content Workflows

Support & Content Community

PolarCut also emphasizes support around the clipping workflow rather than focusing exclusively on automated output.

The offering includes:

• Real human support
• 24/7 Discord help
• Weekly strategy calls
• A community for content teams

This can be useful for agencies and creator teams that want feedback and guidance around their content strategy as well as the actual clips.

The enterprise offering includes features such as:

• Custom volume
• No file size limits
• Faster processing
• Batch export

Why It Matters

Creating short-form content from long videos is often less about making the final edit and more about finding the moments worth editing in the first place. Manually watching long recordings, identifying highlights, cutting clips, adding captions, and preparing different formats can quickly become a bottleneck.

PolarCut focuses on that repurposing workflow by combining AI highlight detection, automatic clip generation, captions, virality scoring, batch output, and social-ready exports. The ability to move clips into professional editors also gives teams an option to refine automated results when needed.

The result is a workflow built around turning one piece of long-form content into a larger volume of publishable short-form content.
