What it does

Clip from the page you are on

A one-click Save button on YouTube itself. No copying links into a notes app you will never open again.

A swipe file that does analysis

Clipped videos land in your VideoCore workspace with their real performance context — how the video did against its own channel's baseline — so your swipe file collects proven winners, not just pretty packaging.

Feeds your whole workspace

Clips are available to Script Lab, the Idea Engine and pattern matching — the opening of a clipped winner becomes something your own drafts are compared against.

Free, with a free account

The clipper needs somewhere to save to, so it signs into your VideoCore workspace. The account and the swipe file are free.

How it works

  1. Install the extension and sign in to your free VideoCore workspace
  2. Press Save on any YouTube video worth remembering
  3. Open your Swipe File in VideoCore — organised, searchable, analysed

Privacy

🔒 The clipper saves the videos YOU choose to your own workspace. It does not track your browsing, and it reads nothing you did not explicitly clip.

Questions

Why does this one need an account when the other VideoCore extensions don't?

Because a swipe file has to live somewhere you can come back to. Downloaders hand you a file and are done; the clipper builds a library, and the library is your VideoCore workspace. The account is free.

What is a swipe file for?

Reference. When a hook, title or thumbnail stops you mid-scroll, that reaction is data. A swipe file collects those moments so that when you plan your next video you are drawing on proven attention-getters in your niche instead of a blank page.

What happens to a video after I clip it?

It is saved to your workspace's Swipe File with its performance context. From there you can study it, tag it, and run it through Script Lab to see exactly how its script is built.
