  "about": {
    "oneLiner": "Katto turns long videos and podcasts into scored, captioned, reframed 9:16 clips — with flat per-video pricing and an API, CLI and MCP server.",
    "short": "Katto is an AI video clipping service. Paste a YouTube, Twitch or Vimeo link — or upload a file — and it finds the strongest moments, cuts them into vertical clips, adds word-timed captions, reframes around speakers and publishes to 7 platforms. Flat pricing per source video: no credits, no per-minute meter.",
    "boilerplate": "Katto is an AI video clipping service built for long-form creators — podcasters, streamers and interview shows. It downloads a source video, transcribes it, scores every candidate moment on four transparent axes (hook, flow, value, trend), then cuts, captions and reframes the best ones into ready-to-post vertical clips, with optional AI dubbing. Everything runs in Katto's cloud and can be driven from the dashboard, the REST API, the CLI or a hosted MCP server (OAuth 2.1) — one monthly quota of source videos shared across all of them. Katto is built and bootstrapped in Japan by a solo founder."
