With a dominating performance, OpusClip proves it's ready for the spotlight!

The SXSW Pitch Competition, held March 9-10, 2024, returned to Austin for its 16th year and featured 45 tech startups across nine categories. OpusClip was the clear favorite, winning not just Best Pitch in the Entertainment, Content, & Media category, but also the most prestigious Best in Show award.

The SXSW Pitch Competition is one of the most respected startup proving grounds, with a total of 647 participants who have received over $23 billion in funding and acquisitions. And this year's pitch competition had the highest caliber of participants to date.

"We were so excited about our first win that we almost missed that we won the whole thing," said Young Zhao, Co-Founder and CEO at OpusClip. "This is an incredible achievement for our team and a testament to the traction we’ve gained thanks to our powerful AI product and our creator-first approach."

Tackling creators' most pressing problem: "Why is Growing as a Video Creator so Difficult?" Young deftly explained how OpusClip streamlines creating videos by removing the most significant hurdles from production -- time, resources, and expertise. OpusClip's pitch wasn't about technical features and AI models, but rather customer problems and how their solution solves them by intelligently automating content production.

OpusClip's recognition at South by Southwest® is a huge milestone for the company, and it highlights the importance of democratizing video content creation and unleashing creativity through the use of AI.

Aside from the wins at SXSW, OpusClip is also listed as Top 50 Gen AI Consumer Web Product by the esteemed venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, further establishing OpusClip as a leader in generative AI solutions.
