Klap's official API documentation for generating shorts lists four supported input types: YouTube links, Amazon S3 URLs, Google Cloud Storage URLs, and generic public HTTPS file URLs. Bilibili does not appear in any of them. A search across klap.app and docs.klap.app returns zero mentions of Bilibili. The roadmap entries for future platform expansions name Google Drive and Twitch — not Bilibili.
This is not a corner case. Bilibili is one of the largest video platforms in the world, with hundreds of millions of monthly active users producing content in Chinese. For creators whose primary audience and archive live on Bilibili — education, gaming, variety, tech commentary — a tool that cannot read a Bilibili URL is effectively unusable for their main source material.
ClipIt is currently the only AI shorts tool with native Bilibili URL support. There is no workaround on the Klap side: you would need to manually download the Bilibili video and re-upload it as an HTTPS file, losing the direct-URL workflow entirely. For creators who operate across both YouTube and Bilibili, ClipIt handles both from a single paste.
Klap's free tier processes one video per month with a 10-minute source cap and generates roughly 10 clips. The critical limitation: downloads are blocked on the free plan. You can preview the generated clips in-browser, but you cannot export them to your computer or publish them. The free tier is a demo, not a working production tool.
ClipIt's free tier works differently. Signup credits cover real exports: clips are rendered at 1080p with no watermark and do not expire. You get fewer shots than Klap's in-browser preview count, but every clip you generate is yours to download and publish immediately. For evaluating whether an AI shorts tool fits your workflow, actually keeping the output matters — ClipIt's free tier delivers that where Klap's does not.
4K export. Klap's Pro tier ($79/month or $63/month billed annually) outputs at 4K resolution. ClipIt currently caps at 1080p. For most short-form platforms — TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels — 1080×1920 is the recommended and accepted format, so this difference does not affect standard social publishing. But if you are producing clips for broadcast, digital signage, or any context that demands 4K source, Klap Pro is the better choice and ClipIt cannot match it today.
AI dubbing in 29 languages. Klap Pro and above include AI dubbing: the tool generates a new audio track in a target language synced to the original video. ClipIt does not offer dubbing at any tier. If you produce content for international audiences and need dubbed clips — not just captioned, but actually voiced in another language — Klap is the right tool. The feature is locked to the $79/month Pro tier, so it is not cheap, but it is a genuine capability gap that ClipIt does not yet close.
ClipIt's first paid tier is $19/month billed monthly, or $15/month billed annually (20% off). That includes 300 credits per month — measured per clip generated, not per minute of source video. For most creators producing regular short-form content, 300 credits is adequate at the entry price.
Klap's Starter tier is $29/month or $23/month annually, giving 100 clips per month from videos up to 45 minutes, at 1080p. Note that 1080p is the ceiling at Starter — 4K and AI dubbing only unlock at the Pro tier ($79/$63). For a creator who wants 4K or dubbing from Klap, the effective entry price is not $29 but $79.
For most creators producing 9:16 content for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels, ClipIt's $19 tier provides more clips per dollar at entry ($19 for 300 vs $29 for 100). Klap's pricing advantage emerges only when you need Pro-tier features that ClipIt does not offer.

Both tools convert long-form video into 9:16 shorts with AI highlight detection and captions. The decision comes down to your source platform and which advanced features you actually need.
Klap's official API documentation lists four input types: YouTube links, Amazon S3 URLs, Google Cloud Storage URLs, and generic public HTTPS file URLs. Bilibili is absent from all of them, and there is no mention of Bilibili anywhere on klap.app or docs.klap.app. Klap is a French-founded product (by Zigg, based in Paris) with no documented CJK platform integrations. The planned future expansions named in their docs are Google Drive and Twitch — not Bilibili. For creators whose content lives on Bilibili, ClipIt is currently the only AI shorts tool with direct support.
For genuine production use, no. Klap's free tier processes one video per month with a 10-minute cap and blocks all downloads — you can preview the generated clips in-browser but cannot export them to your computer. It functions as a one-shot demo rather than a usable free plan. ClipIt's free tier works differently: signup credits cover real exports with no watermark and no expiration date. If you want to evaluate the tool with clips you can actually keep and publish, ClipIt's free tier is more useful.
No. ClipIt currently outputs at 1080p (h264, 9:16). For most short-form platforms — TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels — 1080×1920 is the recommended resolution and is accepted without quality penalty. If you specifically require 4K output (for example, for a TV or cinema application), Klap's Pro tier at $79/month is the better fit. For standard social short-form publishing, 1080p is sufficient.
Klap's AI dubbing covers 29 languages and kicks in at the Pro tier ($79/month or $63/month billed annually). It generates a dubbed audio track synced to the original video — useful if you want to reach audiences in languages other than your source audio. ClipIt does not offer dubbing at any tier. If cross-language reach through dubbed clips is a core workflow requirement, Klap's Pro tier is the right tool. If you simply need accurate captions in multiple languages, both tools handle that — the dubbing distinction is specifically about replacing the audio.
Paste any YouTube or Bilibili URL. Free tier includes downloads (Klap free is preview-only).
