    Video is the strongest growth lever I have right now. Every time we clip a 60-second moment from our webinars and post it on our CEO's LinkedIn or company page, the numbers spike. More comments. More saves. More inbound leads. Nothing else in our content mix comes close. So I want to scale this. We run one major webinar every month with thousands of attendees. I'm sitting on hours of strong content that should be broken into short, shareable clips. The catch? I can't spend 3 hours editing per video. I need a tool that helps me crank out high-quality clips fast — without perfectionism slowing me down. Here's my shortlist: OpusClip Submagic VEED.IO Descript My criteria: Maximum output, minimum time, reasonable cost. It doesn't need to be flawless. It needs to ship consistently. If you've actually used these tools or know something better, I'd love your honest take. What works? What doesn't? Drop a comment or DM me. Hugo Pereira Bożena P. Maria Barikhina
