GhostShorts vs Klap:
Hours of Footage, or None at All

Klap eats three-hour recordings and produces a thousand clips a month. GhostShorts starts from a blank page because nothing was ever recorded. The gap between those two jobs is the whole comparison.

These are not the same size of problem

Klap is priced and built for volume. Pro is $79 a month for thirty uploads of up to two hours each and three hundred clips out the other side. Pro+ is $189 for a hundred uploads at three hours and a thousand clips. That is agency and production-team territory, and against the cost of a human editor it is a bargain.

GhostShorts is $19.99 and does not ingest a three-hour recording at all. It makes short videos from scripts. Cheaper, yes, but cheaper in the way a bicycle is cheaper than a van.

Pick by what you are holding

🎙️

Klap: a back catalogue of long recordings

Podcasts, webinars, streams, conference talks. Two to three hours per file, hundreds of clips a month, each scored for likely performance. We do not compete here and would not pretend to.

🌐

Klap: dubbing into 29 languages

Plus 4K export. Two capabilities we simply do not have. If either is on your list, the comparison ends there.

📄

GhostShorts: nothing recorded yet

A clipping engine needs something to clip. If you have never filmed anything and do not intend to, that is the whole reason to be on this side of the comparison.

💵

GhostShorts: $19.99 against $79

A real difference, but only if you were never going to use the volume. Paying $79 for capacity you need is cheaper than paying $19.99 for a tool that cannot do the job.

Yes, and by a wide margin once you are past the entry tier. Our Starter is $19.99 a month. Klap Pro is $79 and Pro+ is $189. An older version of this page said we were half the price, which was a made-up number, so here are the real ones instead. Note that Klap also has a free tier for a single video and we have no free plan at all.
Because it does something we cannot. Klap ingests two and three hour recordings and produces hundreds of clips from them, scores each one for likely performance, and dubs into 29 languages. If you run a podcast, a webinar series or a stream and you have a back catalogue sitting there, that is a completely different job from ours and Klap is built for it. At that volume $79 is cheap against a human editor.
No. That is not what it is for. We handle short uploads and our clipping is aimed at reasonable-length source video, not multi-hour recordings producing a thousand clips a month. If that is your situation, take Klap and do not let a price comparison talk you out of it.
When there is no recording. Klap is a clipping engine and an empty upload box is an empty dashboard. If your channel is faceless and nothing has ever been filmed, the entire Klap workflow has no input, and the named formats we ship become the point.
Klap has both. We have neither. If you need a clip dubbed into 29 languages or delivered at 4K, that is a straight loss for us and no amount of format library makes up for it.

No back catalogue to mine?

Then you do not need a clipping engine. You need a video that does not exist yet.
