Every clip ends with a short Clips Kitty end card. A 2.9-second card with the Clips Kitty mascot is added to the end of each clip you make, so people who watch your clips can find the app that made them. It is joined on without re-encoding, so the clip itself is untouched.

Publish to YouTube from the editor. Finish a clip, press YouTube, fill in the title, description, tags, thumbnail, playlist, audience and visibility, and press Upload. Scheduling uploads the video now and asks YouTube to publish it later, so you can switch your computer off. It is off until you turn it on in Settings, and it uses your own free Google API key rather than a shared one. Until your Google Cloud project passes YouTube's free audit, YouTube keeps videos uploaded through an API private, and Clips Kitty tells you when that happens. This is new and few people have tried it yet, so if you set it up, please tell us how it went through the Feedback Hub.

Star the clips you have exported, and export a whole video at once. Each clip in the Clip Editor has a star next to its delete button. Exporting a clip stars it, and Export all saves every clip from a video or stream that is not starred yet, so nothing gets exported twice.

Korean is now fully translated, thanks to @doeil1614-ops, who translated the 68 missing phrases and reviewed the existing wording as a native speaker (#45).

"No clips" explains itself. When a video produces nothing, the app says why where the clips would have been: how many moments were considered, the best score any of them reached, the threshold, and whether nobody was on screen, as with gameplay footage.

Reasoning models find clips. DeepSeek-R1, OpenAI's gpt-oss and NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Nano now work, and all three are listed on the Models page.

Streamer tools can hand a finished stream to Clips Kitty. A new local API finds the Twitch or YouTube VOD after a stream ends and queues it. The Clips Kitty OBS Plugin is the first tool built on it.

Also fixed: an installed copy no longer offers to "update" to an older version; downloading an update now shows real progress instead of sitting at 100% (from this version on); AI models downloaded by older versions are used instead of fetched again; editing a clip you had translated no longer fails the render; your YouTube sign-in is stored encrypted; a blocked YouTube sign-in now says how to fix it; bug reports include the video you were processing; and the local API refuses requests addressed to any other host name.


Downloading

ClipsKitty-Web-Setup-1.2.0.exe: the installer. It fetches the rest on first run.

Windows may show "Windows protected your PC", because the installer is not code-signed yet. Click More info, then Run anyway.

Prefer no installer? The offline .zip is on Hugging Face: unzip it and run Clips Kitty.exe. The large files live there because a GitHub release asset is capped at 2 GiB.

Existing installs update themselves.
