Make viral music clips from the videos you already have
A viral clip starts with the right moment. TONTRIA reads your video, proposes the 30–90 second moments that work on their own, ranks each one with a virality score and gives you the vertical version with captions, a hook and draft titles.
1 credit = 1 minute of video processed. The free plan includes 30 credits to start, no card needed.
From a long video to a ranked list of clips
The same four steps work for a live session, a music video, an interview or a livestream.
Paste the link or upload the video
A YouTube link or the file itself, as long as you own it or have permission to use it. The language is detected automatically.
Pick the edit mode
“Viral – sung” stays with the voice and cuts to the reactions around the singer. “Viral – spoken” follows whoever is talking.
Ask for the kind of moment you want
Use the shortcuts (chorus or hook, crowd reaction, the story behind a song, a release announcement) or write your own request. You choose how many clips, up to 20.
Start with the highest score
Every clip comes with its virality score, its transcript and its captions. Trim the start or end, fix a word and export in 9:16.
The parts of a viral-style clip, done for you
Nobody can promise views. What you can do is choose better moments and publish more of them.
A virality score on every clip
A ranking to decide where to start, so you don’t have to watch two hours of footage to find the thirty seconds worth posting.
Moments for sung and spoken video
The chorus with the crowd, a story before a song, a funny exchange, the announcement of a new release.
A vertical crop that follows the face
The 9:16 frame stays on whoever is singing or talking instead of a fixed center crop.
Captions that keep people watching
Karaoke, word by word, viral or phrase styles with the artist’s font, colors, stroke and shadow.
A hook, titles and hashtags
Each clip comes with a draft hook, three titles, a description and hashtags in the language of the clip.
Up to 20 clips per video
Enough variety to post a different moment every day and see which one people save and share.
What makes a music clip travel
There is no formula, but the clips that get shared tend to have the same traits:
- The first seconds already say something. A line of the hook, a surprising sentence or a reaction. Not a logo and not a long silence.
- One idea, finished. A chorus with its last line, a story with its punchline. A clip that stops halfway gets scrolled past.
- It makes sense without sound. Captions turn a moving face into something you can follow on a bus or at work.
- It gives people something to do. Sing the line, tag a friend, look up the song. The clearest clips make that obvious.
When TONTRIA reads the transcript it looks for the first and the second: a strong opening, a complete idea and a clean ending. The captions, the hook and the call to action are yours to polish, and the draft text it gives you is a start.
How to use the virality score
Treat the score as a ranking, not a prediction. Open the top clips first, trim them, and publish a few. Then look at your own numbers: which clip was saved, shared or watched to the end? Ask TONTRIA for more moments of that kind, for example the chorus with the crowd or the story behind a song, and keep going.
Tip: don’t post all the clips on the same day. Spread them over a few days. Different moments reach different people, and you learn faster which part of your music connects.
A simple weekly routine
- Record or collect one long video a week: a live session, a rehearsal, an interview, a livestream.
- Ask for 5 to 10 clips and pick the top three by score.
- Post one a day, with the draft hook and a title you edited.
- At the end of the week, repeat the type of moment that worked best.

Viral music clips: questions
Which app finds the moments of my video that could go viral?
TONTRIA Clips. It transcribes the video word by word, looks for 30–90 second moments with a strong start and a clean ending, and ranks them with a virality score so you know which to post first. For songs, the “viral – sung” mode keeps the singer in frame with karaoke captions; for talk, “viral – spoken” follows whoever is speaking. You get 30 credits to start, one time, no card needed (1 credit = 1 minute processed).
Can TONTRIA guarantee that a clip goes viral?
No, and nobody can. The virality score ranks the moments of your video so you know where to start. What happens after you post depends on your audience, the platform and timing. The way to improve is to publish several clips and keep making more of the kind that gets saved and shared.
How do I make a song go viral on TikTok or YouTube?
Nobody can promise it, but you can give the song more chances. Post many short clips of the same song instead of one: the hook in the first two seconds, a live version, the story behind it, the lyrics on screen. On TikTok, use the official sound of the song (it appears once your distributor delivers it) so every video, yours and your fans’, adds up on the same sound page. On YouTube, link each Short to the full video. Then make more of the clips people save and share. The hooks guide and how to promote a song on TikTok go step by step; TONTRIA gives you up to 20 clips per video to test.
How does the AI choose the moments?
It transcribes the video word by word and looks for 30–90 second moments that work on their own: a strong first few seconds, a complete idea or chorus and a clean ending. You can adjust where each clip starts and ends.
Does it work for songs, not only for people talking?
Yes. The “viral – sung” mode was made for performances: it keeps the singer in the vertical frame, cuts to reactions and shows karaoke captions that follow each sung word.
How long should a viral-style clip be?
Start with 15 to 45 seconds for a song and 30 to 60 for a story or interview. Longer clips can work when the energy builds, such as a live chorus. Try different lengths and compare.
How many credits does it use?
1 credit is 1 minute of video processed, so a 20-minute live session uses about 20 credits and every clip it produces is included. Editing and exporting again is free.
