OpenClip: clipping long video into shorts

The headline OpenClip pipeline: submit a long video, get back ranked "viral moments" with titles, hooks, social copy, and clip URLs. This is the PAID pipeline, it needs an active OpenClip subscription and credits (credits are minutes of processing).

Processing is ASYNC at every step. Always poll, never assume a call finished.
