What is Recapo.ai and what is it best used for?

Recapo.ai is a browser-based AI video workspace for turning source footage into summaries, recap scripts, captions, voiceovers, highlight clips, vertical versions, covers, and export-ready videos. It is best suited to creators who repurpose long footage, build movie recaps or faceless commentary, clip livestreams, or produce repeated short-form variations.

How is Recapo different from a traditional video editor?

A traditional video editor starts with a timeline and gives the user frame-level control. Recapo starts with an outcome: summarize a source, write a recap, find highlights, create captions or voiceover, and prepare a short-form export. Use a traditional editor when precise manual compositing matters; use Recapo to accelerate repeatable AI-assisted workflows.

How is Recapo different from a dedicated AI clip generator?

A dedicated AI clip generator mainly turns a finished long video into ranked short clips. Recapo includes clipping, but also connects it to transcripts, summaries, recap scripts, AI voiceover, subtitle tools, resizing, covers, and export. If clipping is the only job, test specialist tools too; Recapo's advantage is reducing handoffs across a larger workflow.

What can Recapo create from one long video?

From one long video, Recapo can produce a content summary, story or selling-point notes, highlight candidates, caption drafts, recap scripts, voiceover directions, vertical short-video versions, and cover candidates. Available outputs depend on the chosen workflow and settings, so the interface—not this FAQ—should be the source of truth for a specific task.

What video files and video links can I import?

The shared film-recap uploader lists MP4, MOV, MKV, MPEG, MPG, and 3GPP. The homepage also accepts authorized links from YouTube, Douyin, TikTok, bilibili, and Xiaohongshu. Other tools may support formats such as WebM, GIF, SRT, VTT, or ASS; check the relevant tool page before uploading an unusual file.

What are Recapo’s current upload size and video length limits?

Limits are workflow-specific. The shared film-recap flow currently shows up to 20 videos and 6 GB total, while public AI Clip Generator and Long Video to Short pages show up to 2 GB per local file. Plan cards also set per-upload video counts. Read the live uploader and Pricing page before starting a large task.

Can I edit scripts, captions, clips, and voiceovers before export?

Yes, but the available edit step depends on the asset. The film-recap flow includes script confirmation before the final result, AI Clip Generator allows candidate and boundary edits, and caption tools provide editable subtitle text or files. Review voiceover, framing, and output settings before export; Recapo is not a substitute for final editorial approval.

Which languages does Recapo support?

Recapo exposes output-language and subtitle-language choices across its creation and caption workflows, and the public site is localized into multiple languages. The exact list can vary by feature, especially for transcription, translation, and voiceover. Use the current selector in the tool as the source of truth instead of publishing one permanent language count.

Which aspect ratios and export resolutions are available?

Recapo provides tools for 9:16 vertical, 1:1 square, and 4:3 crops, alongside standard horizontal workflows. Export resolution depends on the plan: the current Pricing page lists up to 720p for Starter and Basic, 1080p for Pro, and 4K for Ultimate. Verify framing and plan limits before final export.

How does Recapo store and delete uploaded files?

Recapo collects and processes uploaded videos, audio, prompts, files, and generated outputs to provide and improve the service. The Privacy Policy does not promise one fixed retention period; it says data is kept as long as necessary, subject to legal requirements. Where available, manage content in account settings or contact support to request deletion.

Where can I find current Recapo plans and prices?

Use the Recapo Pricing page for the current Starter, Basic, Pro, and Ultimate plans, their credits, upload counts, concurrent tasks, and export-resolution limits. Prices and promotions can change, so other pages should link to Pricing rather than repeat dollar amounts. Account-specific billing questions should be checked in the subscription center or with support.

How do I get help when an upload, processing task, or export fails?

Contact Recapo through the Contact page or email [email protected]. Include the affected page URL, tool name, browser, file type, and a short description of what happened. For a failed processing task, also include the task identifier and whether credits were deducted, but do not email sensitive source footage unless support requests a secure method.
