Run AI-assisted video clipping on your own infrastructure, inspect the source, choose your model provider, and customize how clips are scored, captioned, framed, and exported.

First-party product data from the SupoClip repository and hosted application, verified July 27, 2026.
Self-hosting is useful when a team needs control over deployment, provider choice, processing limits, or product customization. Instead of sending every workflow decision through a closed platform, the application can run alongside the rest of the team's infrastructure.
SupoClip includes a Next.js frontend, FastAPI backend, background workers, PostgreSQL, and Redis. The repository includes a Docker Compose setup so the complete application can be deployed as one stack.
Open source does not mean that every dependency is free. Self-hosters provide their own compute, storage, transcription service, and language-model configuration. The tradeoff is operational responsibility in exchange for source-level control.
Teams should also review the AGPL-3.0 license, secure their environment variables, keep dependencies updated, and monitor the worker and storage layers in production.
The quickest setup is to clone the repository, copy the environment template, add the required provider credentials, and start the stack with Docker Compose. Developers can then change the scoring logic, caption presets, interface, or deployment model as their workflow evolves.
Creators who prefer not to operate infrastructure can use the hosted SupoClip application while keeping the open-source repository available as a migration path.
The source code is free under the AGPL-3.0 license. You remain responsible for infrastructure and any paid transcription or AI-provider usage.
Yes. SupoClip supports Ollama configuration in addition to supported hosted model providers.
Docker Compose is the documented full-stack path. Developers can run the Next.js frontend, FastAPI API, worker, PostgreSQL, and Redis separately when their environment requires it.
