About FrameOS
FrameOS takes a long video, such as a podcast or interview, and returns short clips ready for vertical platforms. It reframes footage to five formats including 9:16 and 1:1 with speaker focus, detects and ranks hooks to find up to 20 clips per video and adds one of 21 caption styles with word-level highlighting. A full timeline editor supports overlays, text, stickers, sound effects and filters, and filler-word and silence removal tidy the audio.
Extras include AI B-roll, speech enhancement with denoising and level balancing, AI voice-over from text, and export to Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve as XML with source. Higher plans add auto-publishing to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, LinkedIn and Facebook, a team workspace and faster rendering, and a Business tier adds API access, bulk editorial exports and enterprise security options. A free start gives 300 credits for 3 days with no card. Starter is $19 a month with 400 credits, Pro is offered with annual billing and discounts, and Business is custom.
