Nova vs Reap

The Reap alternative
that finishes the job

Reap leans on multilingual clipping. Nova does the whole pipeline — finds the viral moments, reframes to vertical, captions, translates into 90+ languages, dubs the voiceover, and hands you an editable EDL/FCPXML timeline — from a single link, with a real free tier.

Why creators switch to Nova

Clip and localize in one place

Nova doesn't just translate — it finds the moments, reframes, captions, translates into 90+ languages, and can dub the audio, all in one pass from a single paste.

Hand off to a real editor

Export the cut as EDL or FCPXML and finish in Premiere, Final Cut, or Resolve — the editor handoff most clippers, localization-first ones included, simply don't offer.

A free tier, not a teaser

Clip and caption a real video on the free plan, no card, before you decide.

Questions? Answers.

Is Nova a good Reap alternative?

Yes — Nova matches the multilingual clipping (90+ translation languages plus optional AI dubbing) and adds the parts Reap doesn't: AI moment detection from a single link, an editable EDL/FCPXML timeline export, broad source support, and a genuine free tier. Run the same video through Nova's free plan to compare.

How many languages does Nova translate into?

90+ — the translation pipeline is language-agnostic, so the supported list is broad by design, in the same range as specialist localization clippers.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — 60 minutes/month with no credit card. Paid plans are $29 (Pro) and $99 (Premium).
