ClipForge

What it does

ClipForge is an AI-powered clip extraction engine built for YouTubers who want short-form content without the editing grind. Paste any YouTube URL. ClipForge downloads the video, transcribes every word, and uses AI to find the moments most likely to go viral — tension shifts, emotional peaks, confessions, quotable lines. It then cuts each clip, auto-crops to 9:16, and burns TikTok-style karaoke captions directly into the video.

Its the Best Video Clipping Tool Out There. Contribute to hatimtoor/clipForge development by creating an account on GitHub.

The landing hero is a real-time WebGL "forge" — a video is struck white-hot on an anvil and pulled out as captioned vertical clips. Built with Three.js (custom bloom + particles), lazy-loaded so it never weighs down the app. Turn any YouTube video into viral short-form clips — fully automatic. AI finds the highest-engagement moments, cuts the video, crops to 9:16 while tracking the active speaker, and burns word-by-word karaoke captions. Clips can be downloaded or posted straight to YouTube Shorts and TikTok — manually or fully hands-off via channel monitoring. ┌─────────────────────────────────────┐ │ 🎬 YouTube URL │ └──────────────────┬──────────────────┘ │ ╔════════▼════════╗ ║ 📥…from github.com

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
