Cliptag analyzes video, audio and images, then names every file after what's in it.
No payment details or account required.
The second you drop in a folder.
Title, scene, subject and motion, right in the filename. Looking for the pyramids clip among 300 files? Titles and tags surface it instantly.
Sensitive material? Local mode analyzes fully offline on your Mac. Nothing leaves the device. And local mode is always free.
Works offlineClips move automatically into tag and scene folders.
Roles and weak shots land as Finder labels, instantly filterable.
Every talking clip gets a transcript. Delete filler words and long pauses in the text, and Cliptag renders a pre-cut version next to the original.
Cliptag checks every clip automatically and flags what you should look at again before editing.
Drag a folder from an SD card or drive into Cliptag.
Title, scene, role, tags and technical specs, per clip. Talking clips get a transcript.
Named folders with Finder tags. Rough-cut talking clips in the text editor. Edit-ready.
Cliptag recognizes scenes, subjects and spoken language, what actually happens in the clip, and translates it into your naming system. Top precision via the cloud, plus an optional local mode for material that should not leave your Mac.
Maximum accuracy down to the detail. Recognizes the specific instead of just "a fish". Footage goes encrypted for analysis and is not stored.
Runs entirely on your Mac, nothing leaves the device. Recognition is a bit coarser, but it is the safe choice for sensitive material.
Billed monthly, unused credits partly roll over. Pay yearly and save two months.
Everything to know before your first folder.
Your access stays active for as long as Cliptag exists, including every update to your plan. Should we ever discontinue Cliptag, we will say so six months in advance, and you keep a local full version that runs without an account and without the cloud.
Yes. The free plan includes 25 cloud analyses per month, no payment details needed. One clip or one recording counts as one analysis, up to four photos count as one together. Need more, switch to a paid plan anytime. And local mode stays free and unlimited: fully on-device (Apple Silicon), a bit coarser than the cloud.
You drop clips, recordings, photos or whole folders into Cliptag. The AI recognizes scenes, subjects and spoken language, names and tags every file and files everything into folders by media type and date. What you get back is an edit-ready library on your drive.
Yes. Local mode analyzes fully offline on your Mac, nothing leaves the device. Recognition is a bit coarser than in the cloud, but sensitive footage stays private.
The local mode runs on Apple Silicon (M1 or newer). We recommend at least 16 GB of unified memory and around 10 GB of free disk space for the on-device model; the more memory, the faster and more accurate it runs. Cliptag uses the Apple Silicon GPU and Neural Engine. On older Intel Macs the local mode is limited or unavailable, so the cloud is the better choice there.
Right now Cliptag runs on macOS only. Windows and Linux versions are in development and hopefully available soon.
Monthly plans can be cancelled anytime to the end of the billing month, no lock-in. Yearly plans run until the end of the paid term and are not refunded pro rata. The details are in the Terms.
Yes, since version 0.7. Photos get described, named and tagged, including detected people you can name yourself. Recordings are recognized by type (music, ambience, sound effect, speech) and spoken audio is transcribed. If a microphone recording sits next to a talking clip, Cliptag offers to sync them and can file both as a single file.
Video: MP4, MOV, M4V, AVI, MKV, MTS/M2TS, WebM, MPEG, WMV, FLV and MXF. Audio: MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, AIFF, FLAC, CAF and OGG. Photos: JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC/HEIF, TIFF and BMP. Standard H.264/H.265 (10-bit too) works without issues. Camera RAW formats like R3D, BRAW, ProRes RAW, ARRIRAW and DNG are not supported yet, export them to a standard format first. Color depth does not matter for recognition, and your original file is always copied unchanged. Files Cliptag cannot read are skipped with a note, never altered.
No. For cloud analysis, single frames, audio tracks and photos are sent encrypted for processing and are not stored. If you want to stay fully offline, use local mode.
No, never. Cliptag names and sorts, but deletes nothing. When you move clips from an SD card or external drive into a new directory, they are copied there; the original stays until the transfer is safely complete. If space runs out, you get a notice first. If the connection drops by accident, nothing is lost and you simply restart the transfer. When you move within the same drive, only the location changes, instantly and without a copy.
Yes, within the running session you undo any action with one click. Once you close Cliptag the session ends and an automatic reset is no longer possible. So you can always trace what went where, Cliptag writes a log file (JSON) for every action that lets you reconstruct the original names and folders.
Cliptag supports German, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian.
