Quickstart

Sign in

Open klipeo.com and sign in with Google. GitHub, Microsoft, and X are on the sign-in page too when they're configured. There's nothing to set up either way. The same account signs you into the Mac and mobile apps.

Start from Home

After sign-in you land on Home. The composer in the middle asks what you want to edit. With an empty composer, Start Editor opens the seeded sample. Once you type a brief, attach media, or choose a skill, it changes to the Plan and send controls. Describe the result, or drop in video, audio, or images, and send. The project picker sits in the composer's bottom toolbar and decides where the edit lives: No project, an existing project, or New project. Type a name and commit it and the project is created right then, so it shows up in the sidebar before the edit starts. The picker is desktop only, and it is hidden inside a project workspace, where the edit already has a home. Your edit opens straight into the editor.

Projects in the sidebar is the full library. A project is a container for your work; inside it are compositions, the actual video edits, and the chats you had with Vibe about them.

Try the sample in the empty library starts the same flow. It creates a "Welcome to Klipeo" project with a seeded composition. The project's AI context tells Vibe to offer five short demos when you ask what to try: /captions, /trim-dead-air, /punch-in-zooms, /cinematic-grade, and /launch-video. They are suggestions Vibe makes in the chat, not buttons you can click.

Add a clip

Drag a video file onto the assets panel on the left, or click to browse. Klipeo takes video, audio, and images up to 50 MiB per file.

When a video lands, Klipeo can look at it in the background: listening for the speech, finding the silent gaps, and spotting where the shots change. That analysis is conditional. Transcription runs only when your account has an active paid plan and a transcript provider is configured. Scene detection uses the video analysis service for supported clips and falls back to the server's scene scanner when that service is unavailable. Silence detection needs the server's media tools. Media saved with its alpha channel intact skips analysis altogether.

You never wait for it either way. When it runs, asking Vibe later to "cut the dead air" is quicker because it already knows where the dead air is. When it doesn't, Vibe works from the timeline instead.

Put it on the timeline

Drag the clip from the assets panel down onto a track. It shows up as a block you can move and trim. Press Space to play, and the preview in the middle updates as the playhead moves.

Make one cut yourself

Move the playhead to a spot you want to cut, then press S to split the clip in two. Grab the edge of a clip and drag inward to trim it. This is ordinary timeline editing, and it works exactly how you'd expect.

Ask Vibe for the rest

Open the Vibe panel and type something like:

Trim the dead air and caption the whole thing.

Vibe reads your line along with what it learned about the clip, figures out which Skills to run, and edits the timeline for you. You'll watch the clips tighten up and a caption track appear. By default Vibe runs on Klipeo's cloud, so there's nothing to install.

Export

When it looks right, open the export page from the header. For a fast file your browser can encode an MP4 on its own. For a finished render, send it to our servers and download it when it's done. Both are covered in Exporting.
