OpusClip Celebrates $30M in Funding and the Launch of "ClipAnything"
Young Zhao
It’s a big day for us at OpusClip! We’re announcing that we’ve raised $30M in funding, which includes our recent Series A as well as prior seed funding. The Series A was led by Millennium New Horizons, with support from AI Grant, Samsung Next, GTMfund, DCM Ventures, Alumni Ventures, Fellows Fund, Alpine VC, and our angel investor Jason Lemkin.
Since OpusClip was launched a year ago, we have experienced phenomenal growth. We’ve surpassed 6M users and eight-figures in ARR. Billboard.com, Univision, Telefónica, Jenny Hoyos, and Scott Galloway are just a few of the incredible customers that leverage OpusClip.
OpusClip is a rare instance where I was a customer first, then had the chance to invest. After evaluating every option in the market as a user, it was clear OpusClip was the best option. Its explosive growth in a highly competitive space is a testament to its status as a best-of-breed AI app for marketers, businesses and creators. I have no doubt that OpusClip is on its way to becoming the next billion-dollar company!

AI generated video startups are all the rage, but the majority of them help you create animations or lifeless avatars. While these technologies will certainly have their place in the ecosystem, we believe authentic, real video is always going to be the most engaging and compelling. The bigger opportunity comes with what you can do with that video once it’s recorded.
That’s where OpusClip comes in. OpusClip is an AI-powered video editing tool that transforms long-format videos into short, high-quality clips for social media platforms like TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.
OpusClip is designed to give creators more creative time with AI automation and actionable growth insight, and you can see this ethos in every part of our product. Our AI automatically extracts highlights from different parts of your video, reframes clips for various aspect ratios, adds animated captions and B-Roll to increase visual appeal, and allows for directly posting to social media channels.
For brands and creators, we know great content needs to be measurable. That’s why our AI generates a virality score for each clip based on the analysis of tens of thousands of viral videos, reducing guesswork and delivering better results.
Introducing ClipAnything
While we’re already growing fast, we don’t plan to slow down anytime soon. As part of today’s news we’re unveiling ClipAnything, the world’s first multimodal AI clipping that can clip any moment from any video with natural language prompts.
Millions of creators, producers, editors, and other professionals already rely on OpusClip to save time and grow faster by turning their their talking-head videos into viral shorts, but talking-head videos are just a small sum of the entire video content out there. That’s why we’re excited to launch ClipAnything, designed to help everyone create and grow faster with any type of content, whether it’s vlogs, sports, TV shows, or other video formats.
Just type your prompt, and OpusClip will automatically identify the right moments to highlight for maximum impact. This is made possible thanks to our state-of-the-art video understanding, which, unlike LLMs that focus solely on words, understands and reasons across visuals, actions, emotions, audio, and dialogue. We built this in collaboration with the creative industry, from award-winning producers to major media and entertainment enterprises, to embed producer-grade storytelling and editing strategies in every clip. The new ClipAnything model has been fine-tuned based on data across our 6M users and incorporates their likes, dislikes, exports, and social performance.
Thank you to our incredible community of users and supporters. Your feedback and enthusiasm drive us to improve and innovate. We look forward to what the future holds as we continue to redefine the landscape of video editing with AI. Stay tuned for more exciting updates and innovations from OpusClip. Together, we are shaping the future of content creation.
