Clipping XO

How it works

One content source. Multiple distribution channels.

Clipping XO works in four steps. We take your existing long-form content, cut its strongest moments into retention-focused short-form edits, publish them across a dedicated network of Instagram pages and YouTube Shorts channels, and use performance data to decide what to edit and publish next.

The opportunity

You don't have a content problem. You have a distribution opportunity.

You already invest time and money into creating content. But when distribution relies primarily on your own accounts, every new audience discovery depends heavily on your existing channels and their performance.

Imagine your best ideas, insights and moments circulating across an entire network of relevant short-form pages.

What is the difference between placements and unique edits?

A placement is one video published on one page or channel. A unique edit is one distinct edited video. One unique edit can become several placements when it is published, as is or adapted, on several pages.

That is why the monthly plan talks about approximately 2,700 placements per 30-day month, not 2,700 videos. The number of unique edits depends on your content and the final distribution plan, and it is written into the statement of work.
