Just Ask. Get Your Reels

Skip the part of video-making nobody enjoys. With Weftly, you just describe the clip you want and get it back, inside the AI tools you already use. No editing software, no timeline, no subscription.

If you’re like most creators, you’ve got footage. You want clips to post. The part in between — finding the good moments, cropping to vertical, trimming it down, normalizing the audio, getting a transcript — is the part nobody actually wants to do.

We sure don’t like that part.

That’s why we built Weftly.

Weftly does that part for you. You ask Claude for the clip; you get the clip back. There’s no editor to open, nothing to install, and no subscription.

What you actually get

  • The slow, boring work — done fast. Just ask Weftly for “the best 30 seconds, cropped for Reels,” and that’s what comes back. Or ask Weftly to find the best clips for you.
  • Nothing to buy or install. Weftly runs inside the AI tools you already use, like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and OpenClaw.
  • No monthly subscription. You pay per job, and you get what you pay for. We’d rather you pay for the clips you make than sign up for a plan that works out better for us than for you.

How it works

  1. Add Weftly to your AI tool — a one-time setup that takes a couple of minutes.
  2. Drop in your video and say what you want.
  3. Get the finished clip back to download and post.

Here’s exactly how we made the demo below. I said, “I want to get a vertical clip of my video to post to reels.” Claude asked me to upload the clip I wanted, then used Weftly to pull the best moments and cut a 9:16 vertical clip with the speaker kept in frame. I never touched a timeline.

Why we built it

Honestly? Because we don’t like editing video either.

Mike and I run The Woven Record, and we had — okay, still have — a backlog of raw interviews waiting to be published. Editing them was the thing we kept putting off. So we worked with Steve and built Weftly to get through the backlog without dreading it. It worked well enough on our own footage that we wanted to hand it to other people.

Try it on one video. Or dozens.

Weftly is free all July — use code PRODUCT-HUNT. If you’ve got footage piling up, point it at one video and see how far “just ask” gets you.

Common questions

How do I make a Reel without editing software?
Add Weftly to an AI tool like Claude, upload your video, and ask for a vertical clip. Weftly finds the best moments and cuts a 9:16 clip you can download and post. There is no editor to open and no timeline to touch.
What is Weftly?
Weftly is an MCP server for video. It lets Claude and other AI tools transcribe, find clips, and cut horizontal or vertical shorts. The processing runs on Weftly's servers, so the agent makes a tool call and gets the finished file back. You pay per job with no subscription.
Does Weftly require a subscription or an account?
No. Weftly is pay-per-job with no account required. Find Clips is $2.00 and returns ranked candidates with timestamps. Each clip you cut, horizontal or 9:16 vertical, is $0.50. Pay by card at checkout or with USDC on Tempo.
Is there a promo code?
Yes. Every Weftly job is free through July 31, 2026 with code PRODUCT-HUNT. Enter it at checkout. Standard pay-per-job pricing resumes in August.
How do I set up the Weftly MCP server?
Point your AI tool at weftly.ai/mcp and it walks you through a one-time setup that takes a couple of minutes. It works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and OpenClaw.
