Your content. Your bucket. Always.
Clipsilo is BYO S3 by design. Your files upload directly to your own AWS S3 bucket — we never store or hold your content. Just metadata and workflow.
- If you cancel, your files stay in your bucket. Nothing to migrate. Nothing held hostage.
- Full metadata export, anytime. Download a complete JSON dump of every batch, asset, and field you've ingested.
- No size limits from us. AWS S3's limits apply — which is to say, effectively unlimited.
- No storage or egress markup. AWS bills you directly at AWS prices.
Total data portability
Leaving should never cost you your content. With Clipsilo, the exit is already wired on day one.

FAQ
Pricing questions
Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
No. Start your 7-day free trial with just your email — no card required.
What happens after the trial?
You can subscribe to Base ($10/mo) or Pro ($18/mo). Annual plans save 20%. If you don't subscribe, your account is paused — not deleted.
What is BYO S3, and why does it matter?
You connect your own AWS S3 bucket. Your content uploads go directly to your bucket — Clipsilo never holds your files. If you ever leave, everything is already in your bucket. File size limits are those of AWS S3 — effectively unlimited.
Can I export my metadata?
Yes, anytime. Download a complete JSON export of all your batches, assets, and metadata from Settings → Export. Combined with your S3 bucket, you have full data portability.
What are the storage or upload limits?
None from us. File size and storage limits are those of AWS S3.
What's the difference between Base and Pro?
Base covers the full developer workflow — ingest, store, distribute via API and MCP. Pro adds the client-facing layer: shareable preview links and an approval workflow clients can use without creating an account.
What is the MCP server?
Every account includes a Model Context Protocol endpoint so AI agents (Claude, GPT-4, custom) can browse and retrieve your approved assets — no custom integration required.
How do I cancel?
Cancel anytime from account settings. No fees, no questions. Your data and your S3 files are always yours.
