## Three differences that matter

- **The main job.** OpusClip finds highlights in a long video and reframes them for vertical. Submagic centres on captions, b-roll and transcript trims, and its Magic Clips pull key moments from long videos.
- **Hindi.** OpusClip's help article says it does not support Hindi at this time, though other Opus pages list it. Submagic lists Hindi. Test a clip on both.
- **Credits and caps.** Submagic Starter gives 45 credits for 15 videos. Pro gives 120 credits for 40 videos. Business gives 300 for 100. OpusClip's credit counts are on its blog, not its pricing page.

## A worked example

Say you make 30 shorts a month.

- Submagic Starter covers 15 videos, so you need Pro, which covers 40.
- Pro billed monthly: $39 x 12 = $468. Billed yearly: $23 x 12 = $276.
- OpusClip Starter at its monthly rate: $15 x 12 = $180.

OpusClip does not show credits per clip on its pricing page, so run one trial month first. Check whether Submagic's length cap also applies to Magic Clips.

## Where Marxx fits
