A Gling alternative built for music
Gling is an AI editor for YouTube creators: it cuts bad takes, silences and filler words from long talking videos. If your videos are songs, live shows and artist interviews, TONTRIA Clips is designed around them — and it also cleans up silences and filler words, makes the lyric video and the release pieces.
Free plan: 30 credits to start, no card needed. Paid plans from USD 10 a month.

When TONTRIA is the better choice
- Your clips come from performances: the “viral – sung” edit keeps the singer in frame and the karaoke captions follow the lyrics word by word.
- You want short clips, not a cleaner long video: TONTRIA proposes clips of 30 to 90 seconds with a virality score and reframes them to 9:16.
- You want the whole release in one account: lyric videos, countdown and out-now pieces and the Spotify Canvas.
- You work for several artists: the Label plan adds team members and a brand kit for each artist.
When Gling may suit you better
- You publish long YouTube videos where you talk to the camera and want bad takes removed automatically before you edit.
- You finish your edit in Premiere, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve and want the rough cut sent there.
- You edit many hours a month: on yearly billing, Gling’s plans give more hours per dollar.
The two can also work together: one tool to clean up the long video and TONTRIA to cut the vertical clips and the release pieces from it. The fairest test is to run the same video through both free plans. See also Descript alternative, 2short.ai alternative and all alternatives and comparisons.
