Each file you export counts, so one clip exported in three sizes counts as three. The count resets every calendar month. Finding highlights, previewing a clip and exporting a transcript or note don’t count.
For freelancers and creators
From voice note to audiogram, on your own computer.
Record a voice note or a call, and Safeclip transcribes it on your computer. Trim the line worth sharing and export a captioned clip or a waveform audiogram to your disk. The source isn't uploaded anywhere.
“Nobody remembers the deck. They remember the one line.”
How it works
- 01
Capture
Record a voice note or a call, drop in an audio or video file, or paste a link to an episode.
- 02
Transcribe
Whisper writes a timestamped transcript on your computer. English only today.
- 03
Clip
Find the line worth sharing in the transcript and trim the clip to it. Safeclip can suggest highlights too.
- 04
Export
Render a captioned clip or a waveform audiogram, square, vertical or wide. The file is saved on your disk.
The same library holds your client calls and notes. Ask across all of it on a local model, and file work under each client with client spaces (Founding License).
10 free exports a month. Unlimited with Founding.
Recording, transcripts, notes and Ask are unlimited on the free plan. Exported clips and audiograms are capped at 10 a month. The Founding License removes the cap for $99, paid once, with no subscription. It is sold until December 31, 2026. After that, Safeclip Pro is $144 a year, or $249 once.
Runs on Mac, Windows and Linux. Mac needs Apple Silicon. Transcription is slower on Windows and Linux, where it runs on the CPU, and calendar features are macOS only for now. English only today. Platform details →
When another tool fits better
If you need full editing or automatic posting, these do more than Safeclip.
Descript
A full editor: text-based and multitrack editing, studio sound and AI tools, on Mac, Windows and the web. Media is uploaded and transcribed in the cloud.
Headliner
Audiograms and full-episode videos made in the browser, with posting to your channels built in.
Opus Clip
Finds clips in long videos with AI, reframes them for vertical and adds animated captions, in the cloud.
Safeclip does less editing. In return, the source stays on your computer, it works offline once the models are downloaded, and the export is a file on your disk. What leaves your computer →
Questions
What counts toward the 10 free exports?
What formats does it export?
Clips and audiograms are rendered as video files on your computer. Transcripts export as TXT, SRT or VTT, and notes as Markdown.
Can I import a YouTube URL or an episode link?
Yes. Paste a link and Safeclip fetches the media and its thumbnail from that site. Transcription and clip rendering then happen on your computer. The media is not uploaded anywhere.
Does the clip or audiogram leave my computer?
Not unless you share it. The file is rendered on your computer and saved to your disk.
Which languages does it understand?
English only today. The speech models Safeclip ships with (Whisper base.en, and small.en if you choose it) are English models. If your conversations are in another language, Safeclip is not the right tool yet.
