Best free podcast clip and audiogram makers
Clips and audiograms promote an episode on social feeds. Almost every free plan here adds a watermark, so the useful questions are how many clips you get, at what resolution, and how long you can export them.
Short answer
Headliner is the audio-first option: unlimited watermarked audiograms and 1 unwatermarked audiogram a month on its ad-supported free plan. OpusClip suits video podcasts: 60 credits a month, clips up to 1080p with auto reframe and captions, but watermarked, not editable, and only exportable for 3 days. Riverside includes Magic Clips on its free plan, with its watermark.

About watermarks
A watermark isn't automatically a dealbreaker for promo clips, since many shows post them anyway. If you want one clean clip per episode, Headliner's 1 unwatermarked audiogram a month covers a monthly show. Export OpusClip clips promptly: the official pricing page says free clips can't be exported after 3 days.
