01How does hook scoring work?
Each segment is scored on six criteria: curiosity gap (+25), practical value (+20), emotional hook (+20), standalone arc (+15), quotable phrasing (+10), and ideal length of 30 to 75s (+10). Scores run 0 to 100 and the top segments are selected.
02How many clips can I extract?
Three by default. Pass --count 5 (or any number up to 10) to extract more. Each clip gets its own score and reason in manifest.json.
03Does it re-transcribe?
No. Clip reads the transcript JSON Shear already generated via --transcript. Run standalone on raw video and it transcribes once, with your AI key set.
04What does it cost?
Clip is on the Creator plan at $19/mo with unlimited videos. The full PRISM suite, all six tools, is $49/mo on Pro.
