Console stream
No capture card
Clips the stream in the cloud, not on your console
All you need is your stream link
No capture card, no PC in the middle, and nothing installed on the console. If you can stream your Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch, Eklipse can clip it.
Stream from your console
Go live to Twitch or YouTube straight from your Xbox, PS5, or Switch, the way the console already lets you. No capture card and no extra hardware.
Connect the channel once
Link that Twitch or YouTube channel to Eklipse in one click. This is the only setup step, and you only do it once. From then on Eklipse knows when you go live.
Clips appear on their own
Eklipse reads the stream, runs AI Highlights over the whole session, and drops a ranked list of vertical clips in your library, each reframed to 9:16 and captioned.
Post from your phone
Review and send clips to TikTok, Reels, and Shorts from the mobile app, or let Content Agent post them automatically. You never touch the console again.
Clipping software a console can actually use
Consoles won't run editing software or clipping plugins. Eklipse gets around that entirely by working from your stream in the cloud, not from the console.
No capture card, no hardware
The usual console-clipping setup is a capture card feeding a second PC. Eklipse skips all of it. Because it clips the stream you are already sending to Twitch or YouTube, there is nothing to buy and nothing to wire up.
Nothing installed on the console
You cannot install clipping apps on an Xbox, PS5, or Switch, and you do not need to. Eklipse runs entirely in the cloud, so the console just does what it already does: stream the game.
Finds the plays for you
The AI reads the gameplay, not just the mic, so a quiet ranked clutch gets clipped the same as a loud win. It catches your best plays across 3,000+ games without you touching a clip button. This is the AI Highlights engine.
Vertical, captioned, ready to post
Each clip comes back reframed to 9:16 with the crop tracking the action, and captions transcribed and timed in the same pass. Tweak any of it in AI Edit, or post it as-is.
Zero load on your game
All the detection and rendering happens on Eklipse's servers, so clipping never costs you a frame while you play. The console's own storage and performance are untouched.
Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch
The same setup works on any console that can stream to Twitch or YouTube. Whether you are on Xbox Series X, PS5, or a Switch, the clipping software is identical because it lives in the stream, not the box.
Skip the capture-card rig entirely
The traditional way to clip console gameplay is a capture card feeding a second PC running editing software. It's expensive, it's fiddly, and it still leaves you clipping by hand. Eklipse replaces the whole chain.
Capture card + PC setup
- Buy a capture card and a PC to run it
- Wire the console through it before every session
- Install and learn desktop editing software
- Still hit a button and crop every clip by hand
- The quiet plays you forgot to catch are gone
Eklipse console clipping
- No capture card and no second machine
- Just stream to Twitch or YouTube like normal
- The whole stream is scanned, nothing is missed
- Clips come back vertical, captioned, and ranked
- Optional auto-posting to TikTok, Reels, and Shorts

Clips the games console players actually stream
Detection is tuned per category, because a Warzone win and a GTA heist do not peak on the same cues. Pick your game and Eklipse already knows what a highlight looks like there, across 3,000+ titles.
Stream from your Xbox to Twitch or YouTube and Eklipse clips it. No capture card, no Elgato, no second PC. The Xbox does the streaming and Eklipse does the clipping.
PlayStation's built-in broadcast is all you need. Go live, connect the channel once, and your ranked plays come back as vertical clips ready for Shorts and Reels.
Stream your Switch gameplay through your usual setup and the same clipping applies. Sandbox and party games get framed and paced for a feed the same as any shooter.
Never want to open the app? Content Agent takes it from detection to posting on TikTok automatically, or queue clips yourself through Content Planner.

Streamers who stopped clipping by hand
Real reviews from streamers using Eklipse on web and mobile.
“They are really making my job as a streamer easier, I don’t have to stop playing to clip something, it’s just automatically clipped.”
“This is a great app! It does exactly what it’s supposed to do… after I did a stream it took about an hour or less to make 43 clips. One of the first apps I’ve found that has actually worked.”
“Eklipse has clipped many vids that I’d never thought of clipping myself.”
“I just started streaming and didn’t know the first thing about video editing. Eklipse makes it so easy. You just link your Twitch or YouTube, and it pulls the clips for you.”
“I love Eklipse. It works really well and captures moments when you laugh or say certain keywords. I love the edits too. I used to use Streamladder, but I’ve been loving Eklipse.”
“Well worth the subscription. Cuts down time editing, and they are always adding games.”

What console clipping connects to
Eklipse finds and cuts the moments from your console stream. These are the parts that finish and post them.
AI Highlights
The detection engine underneath. It reads the game to decide what counts as a highlight, which is why the auto-clipper catches the quiet plays too.
See AI HighlightsAI Edit
Where an auto clip gets finished. Captions, meme overlays, effects, and a tighter reframe before it goes out.
Open AI EditContent Agent
The fully hands-off version. It clips, edits, and posts to TikTok automatically, so you never open the app.

TikTok workflowConsole clipping FAQ
How do I clip console gameplay without a capture card?
Stream your Xbox, PS5, or Switch to Twitch or YouTube the way the console already lets you, then connect that channel to Eklipse once. Eklipse clips the live stream in the cloud, so there is no capture card, no second PC, and nothing installed on the console. Your best plays come back as ranked vertical clips.
Does Eklipse work on Xbox, PS5, and Nintendo Switch?
Yes. It works with any console that can stream to Twitch or YouTube, which covers Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch. Because the clipping happens from your stream rather than on the console, the setup is identical on all three.
Do I need to install anything on my console?
No. Consoles don't allow clipping apps or editing software, and you don't need them. Eklipse runs entirely in the cloud and works from the stream you are already broadcasting, so the console just keeps doing what it does.
Is Eklipse console clipping free?
Creating an account costs nothing and takes one click through Twitch or Google. The product itself is paid: Eklipse is a fully paid product, at roughly $12.50 a month on the annual plan or $24.99 month to month, with no zero-cost tier. What is genuinely free is the set of standalone browser tools, which need no account and no card.
Will it catch plays I didn't clip myself?
Yes, that is the point of it. The AI scans the whole stream and reads the gameplay, not just your mic, so a quiet ranked clutch gets clipped the same as a loud win. You don't press a button mid-match, and the plays you would have forgotten still get caught.
Do the clips come out ready for TikTok and Shorts?
Yes. Each clip is reframed to 9:16 with the crop tracking the action, and captions are transcribed and timed in the same pass. Post as-is, adjust anything first in AI Edit, or publish straight to TikTok, Reels, and Shorts from inside Eklipse.
Which console games does it clip?
More than 3,000 games, with detection tuned per category. That covers the titles console players stream most, including Call of Duty, Fortnite, GTA V, EA FC, Minecraft, and Rocket League, plus competitive FPS and MOBAs. There are game-by-game guides in the use-case library.
Can the clipping and posting be fully automatic?
Yes. Eklipse handles detection and cutting on its own. To automate posting too, hand the loop to Content Agent, which finds, edits, and posts to TikTok without you opening the app, or queue clips yourself through Content Planner.
Clip your console without the hardware
Connect the channel you already stream to and put your last console session through it. The clips you would have missed show up on their own. That is usually enough to tell.
