How to summarize a long video and pull its best moments with WayinVideo

WayinVideo (sold at wayin.ai) takes a long recording, gives you a summary and transcript, and lets you search it for specific moments that you can turn into captioned short clips. This guide walks through that workflow using WayinVideo's own documentation, explains how credits are counted, and covers the prices and our KUPONAUT code as of 13 October 2026.

Affiliate disclosure: links to WayinVideo in this article are partner links and KUPONAUT is our partner code. If you buy through them, Kuponaut may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Prices were read on wayin.ai on 13 October 2026 and can change.

When this workflow saves time

The use case is a recording that is too long to rewatch: a two-hour podcast, a webinar, a lecture, a stream VOD or a meeting recording. Instead of scrubbing through it, you read an overview, ask questions about it, and jump to timestamps. Once you know where the good parts are, you can cut them into vertical clips in the same tool.

It saves less time on short videos you already know well, or when you need frame-accurate editing across many tracks. WayinVideo is a repurposing tool, not a full editing suite, so plan to finish complex edits elsewhere if your project needs them.

Step 1: add the video by link or upload

Start on the free plan through our partner link; no card is needed. WayinVideo's summarizer page says you can paste a link from YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Dailymotion, TikTok or Twitch, or upload a file from your device or Google Drive. Listed upload formats are MP4, MOV and WebM, and Zoom or Teams meeting recordings are handled as uploads. WayinVideo notes that private or restricted links may not load, so use a public link or the file itself.

One limit matters here: according to our pricing record, local uploads are not included on the Free plan. If you are testing for free, paste a public link; if your source is a file on your computer, you will need a paid plan.

Step 2: read the summary, transcript and chat

After processing, the Video Summarizer gives a one-paragraph overview, topic tags and a timeline-ordered breakdown in which each point links to a timestamp. It also produces a full transcript with speaker labels, a mind map and a list of highlights grouped by topic. WayinVideo says summaries, transcripts and subtitles work in 100+ languages.

The feature called Chat with Your Video lets you ask questions about the content and get answers with timestamps you can click to check the source. This is the fastest way to answer questions such as “where do they talk about pricing?” without watching the whole recording. Always click through to the cited moment before quoting it, since any AI summary can misread context.

If you only need notes, you can stop here: summaries, transcripts and notes export as TXT or Markdown, and subtitles as SRT or TXT, ready to paste into Notion, Google Docs or a similar app.

Step 3: find moments by describing them

To pull specific scenes, WayinVideo's help blog describes the Find Moments flow: add your video, click “Find Moments in the Video”, press the green arrow button, then type a phrase or sentence describing what you are looking for. You do not need exact keywords; the tool page says you can search for objects, actions, scenes, sounds, emotions or named people, as well as plain-language descriptions.

Results usually appear within seconds and can be sorted by time or by virality. If nothing comes back, WayinVideo suggests being more specific, adding names, dates or terms that are actually said in the video, trying synonyms or shorter phrases, or picking one of the suggested prompts.

If you would rather let the AI choose, the AI clipping workflow (Long Video to Short Video) picks likely highlights itself and ranks each clip by predicted viral potential. You can steer it with a text prompt, for example expert tips or product mentions.

Step 4: trim, caption and reframe

Each moment in the results has controls for aspect ratio, clip length, captions, download and share. Select a moment to open it in the editor. There you drag the timeline at the bottom to set the start and end points, edit the caption text, and open “Details” in the top-left to change the title, description and tags.

The “Style” panel on the left holds caption templates and lets you adjust the font, size, colour and highlight colour. To reframe, use the “Original” dropdown in the bottom-right and choose 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5, or keep the original ratio. WayinVideo says its vertical reframe uses face tracking to keep the speaker centred; check each clip anyway, especially with two people on screen.

Step 5: export, and watch your credits

Click “Export” in the top-right. The Find Moments page lists 1080p HD export, but the Free plan exports at 720p and keeps clips available for only 3 days, so download what you want to keep. WayinVideo states that no plan, including Free, adds a watermark. Paid plans can also publish to connected social accounts such as TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts; publishing is not included on Free.

Credits are counted by source length: one credit equals one minute of source video. A 90-minute podcast therefore uses about 90 credits, which is most of the free allowance. The pricing page lists 100 free sign-up credits, while one WayinVideo help article mentions 200, so check what your account shows. The pages we read do not say whether running a summary and a clip job on the same video is charged twice, so check your balance after the first job. Unused paid credits do not roll over.

WayinVideo or Klap

Both tools turn long videos into short vertical clips. The difference is scope: WayinVideo also covers the research side, with summaries, transcripts, chat with timestamps and moment search by description, while Kuponaut lists Klap as an AI clipping tool first; our comparison page covers what each plan includes. If you mainly want to understand or search a long recording and then clip a few parts, WayinVideo fits better. If you only want a batch of auto-generated shorts and prefer Klap's output, the comparison is closer.

On discounts, Kuponaut lists a recurring code for Klap, while KUPONAUT for WayinVideo applies to the first payment only. Our WayinVideo vs Klap page compares plans and limits side by side; test both free tiers on the same video before paying.
