YouTube to Clips

Render a vertical or landscape clip from a YouTube video with on-screen quote captions. Async: returns jobId; poll GET /clip/{jobId}. Credits scale with clip length and quality (typically 6 to 15+). You supply start/end timestamps and the quote text; use the web tool at /youtube-to-clips to discover clip timestamps. API renders are never watermarked.
