How do I make a trailer clip for my podcast?
3 min read · Updated October 30, 2026
Pick the single most surprising or useful moment, put a heading on it that says why it matters, caption it and end with where to listen. Auto-Clip finds candidates and adds the heading and captions.
Clip an episode →Choosing the moment
- A claim that makes people want the context.
- A story with its punchline cut off.
- A moment with strong emotion.
In Zlayo
Run Auto-Clip on the episode, open the best clip in the editor, change the heading if you want, and add your show name as a brand mark.
Questions
Auto-Clip works from a video upload; a clip posted as a teaser can use either the clip or its audio.
A closing line in the caption or on screen works; that is a general tip.
