How we rank clipping & repurposing

Every app gets an editor score from 0 to 10 based on output quality, control over the result, value for money (credits per dollar), how fair its free plan and commercial-use terms are, and how open it is to other models, APIs and automations. Reader upvotes and click-throughs nudge the order over time, and we remove listings that shut down, go unmaintained or change pricing dramatically. Read our full methodology.
