Comparison
Vello vs OpusClip
OpusClip turns your own long-form video into clips. Vello does that too — but it also runs the campaign: brands fund a budget, clippers post the clips, and Vello pays out per verified view, on-chain, without anyone chasing an invoice.

When to use OpusClip
You're a solo creator or editor who already has an audience and just needs long-form footage (a podcast, a stream, a talk) cut into clips fast. OpusClip is a strong editing tool for that workflow.
When to use Vello
You're a brand or founder who wants clips made and posted by other people, not just yourself. Vello lets you fund a campaign, and clippers pull your content, edit it, and post it for a cut of the views — paid automatically, on-chain, once views are verified. No hiring, no invoices, no chasing creators for a link.
