How it works

  1. 1

    Paste the episode

    A Spotify, Apple Podcasts or YouTube link, an RSS feed for the whole back catalog, or an upload. Castmagic imports it and transcribes it with speaker labels and timestamps.

  2. 2

    Find the moment

    Start from the moments Castmagic flags, or read the transcript and highlight any line. Multi-guest episodes keep their speakers straight.

  3. 3

    Caption and frame it

    Karaoke captions with the active word lit, in your caption style, at 9:16 for Shorts and Reels, 1:1 or 4:5 for the feed, 16:9 for YouTube.

  4. 4

    Export and post

    Download the clip, then keep going: the same transcript already has your show notes, a newsletter and the posts drafted.

Magic moments, straight from the episode

Studio reads the episode transcript and flags the moments a listener would replay: the hook, the story, the takeaway. Pick one and the clip is cut to the sentence, attributed to the right speaker, with karaoke captions already on it. Or highlight any line of the conversation yourself.

Find the moments in your episode

One episode in. A week of clips out.

An hour-long conversation usually has ten to thirty moments worth posting. Cut the ones you want, each with its own caption and duration, at 9:16 for Shorts and Reels or 1:1 and 4:5 for the feed. The transcript stays, so next week’s clips from the same episode are one click away too.

Cut your first eight

The same moment, as a carousel and a post

The transcript that cuts the clip has already drafted the show notes, the newsletter that quotes the moment, and a swipeable carousel of the same idea for LinkedIn or Instagram. Clip-only tools hand you thirty clips and thirty captions to write. Castmagic hands you the week.

See the whole set

Audio-only shows get clips too

No video feed? The moment becomes an audiogram: a waveform video with your cover art and the same karaoke captions, in the same aspect ratios. It posts everywhere a video clip does, and it is how most audio-first shows end up on Reels.

Make an audiogram

Paste an episode. Get the clips.

A Spotify, Apple Podcasts or YouTube episode link, or the RSS feed for the whole back catalog. Castmagic imports it, transcribes it with speaker labels, and opens Studio with the moments flagged.

Questions

What is a podcast clip generator?

A tool that takes a full podcast episode and cuts short, captioned clips from it for social platforms. Castmagic does it from the transcript: you paste an episode link, it transcribes the episode with speaker labels, flags the strongest moments, and renders the clips with captions in the aspect ratio you pick.

Does it work with audio-only podcasts?

Yes. Audio-only episodes become audiograms, a waveform video with your captions and cover art, in the same aspect ratios. Video episodes use the real footage.

How do I turn a podcast into Shorts or Reels?

Paste the episode link, pick a moment from the transcript or from the ones Castmagic flags, choose 9:16, and export. The clip carries karaoke captions so it plays with the sound off.

How many clips can I make from one episode?

As many moments as the episode has. Most hour-long conversations have ten to thirty clip-worthy moments; you choose which ones to render, and the transcript stays there for later.

Does it handle interviews with several guests?

Yes. The transcript is speaker-labelled, so each line is attributed to the right person and the captions follow whoever is talking.

What caption styles are there?

Karaoke captions where the active word is highlighted as it is spoken, in a set of caption styles you pick per clip. Colours and position are adjustable in the editor.

Which aspect ratios can I export?

9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts; 1:1 and 4:5 for feeds; 16:9 for YouTube and LinkedIn.

What languages are supported?

Transcription in 60 or more languages, with translation built in, so captions can be in the language the episode was recorded in or another one.

Can I edit the clip before exporting?

Yes. Studio has a multi-clip timeline where you trim, reorder, change the ratio and the caption style, and preview before you export.

Does it remove filler words?

The transcript that drives the clips has filler words removed, so captions read cleanly.

Can I import directly from Spotify or Apple Podcasts?

Yes. Paste the episode URL from either, or a YouTube link, or the RSS feed to import the whole back catalog. Zoom, Loom, Google Drive and file upload work too.

What else does Castmagic make from the episode?

Everything that starts from the transcript: show notes, chapters, a newsletter, a blog post, LinkedIn posts and threads, quotes, and Studio carousels. The clips are one output of the same recording.

Is there a free version?

Castmagic plans start at $29 a month and include Studio, transcription and the written content. See the pricing page for what each plan includes.

How is this different from OpusClip or Submagic?

Those tools clip and caption. Castmagic clips and captions from the same transcript that also writes your show notes, newsletter and posts, and it works from audio-only episodes. If you only need clips, they are good tools; if the episode also has to become written content, Castmagic does both in one pass.

Can I turn the same moment into a carousel?

Yes. Studio carousels draft a swipeable image set from the same transcript, so a clip moment can also be a LinkedIn or Instagram carousel.

How long does it take?

Transcription takes minutes for an hour-long episode. Rendering a clip takes seconds once you have picked the moment.
