TOP STORY
🔍 OpusClip releases “OpusSearch”

This week, OpusClip unveiled "OpusSearch," a new AI video search tool designed specifically for professional creators and media businesses to monetize their existing video catalogs.
The tool addresses a major pain point for content creators: most professional creators and brands invest heavily in producing valuable content, but much of it remains under-utilized, losing millions of dollars on the table every year.

With OpusSearch, creators can now:
Find any moment instantly: Discover specific content across your entire video archive by topic, speaker, object, or concept (e.g. Bulletproof frying pan).
Build a "TV network" approach: Transform existing videos into multiple themed channels (e.g., Science, Dating, Politics, etc.) each designed for distinct audiences.
Monetize dormant content: Convert your video catalog into revenue-generating ad inventory and specialized channels.
Capitalize on trends immediately: Locate, edit, and publish relevant past videos that align with current trending topics.
Produce compilation content: Easily locate and combine related clips to build compilation-style videos
Organize your entire archive: Automatically index and structure years of video content for easy search-ability.

The tool's power was recently demonstrated when Jubilee used OpusSearch to identify a viral moment from their "Doctor Mike vs 20 Anti-Vaxxers" video in just minutes.
That single clip generated 53 million views.
Top creators like Mark Rober, Jubilee, and Impact Theory are already seeing impressive results, with creators typically achieving positive ROI within 40 days.
One case study shows a creator generating $30,000 in new revenue within a month using their existing video catalog.

🎙 ElevenLabs releases “Eleven v3”

This week, ElevenLabs released "Eleven v3 (Alpha)," the most expressive text-to-speech model ever created, supporting 70+ languages and introducing groundbreaking multi-speaker dialogue capabilities (you can even clone your own voice)!
Don’t believe us? Take a listen below 👇
Free users can try Eleven v3 and generate up 10 minutes of audio (10,000 credits).

With Eleven v3, you can now:
Guide vocal expression with audio tags: Direct the AI's delivery using tags like [excited], [whispers], [laughing], and [sighs] to create nuanced, emotionally rich voiceovers that match your content's tone perfectly.
Generate realistic multi-speaker conversations: Create dialogue that sounds like authentic conversations, complete with interruptions, tone shifts, and emotional cues that respond naturally to conversational context.
Access advanced emotional range: Use emotion tags like [sad], [angry], and [happily], plus delivery directions such as [shouts] and non-verbal reactions like [clears throat] for cinematic-quality audio.
Scale across 70+ languages: Generate expressive speech in dozens of languages, making it ideal for global content creators and localization projects.
Eleven v3 (Alpha) is available now at 80% off during June, with the public API coming soon for developers.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
🎬 Captions releases “Mirage Studio”

This week, Captions released "Mirage Studio," a video generation tool that creates expressive videos with AI actors that look, sound, and feel truly human (the best we’ve seen yet).
The platform aims to solve the traditional video production bottleneck by eliminating the need for contracts, cameras, or complex production workflows.
The tool works by simply uploading an audio file or script, describing your desired actor, and letting Mirage generate a complete video.
It's available now at mirage.app with a free plan offering 600 credits (60 seconds).
Mirage Studio is powered by Captions' proprietary omni-modal foundation model and allows teams to scale creative output by 10x while cutting production costs in half.
This positions it as a direct competitor to traditional UGC video production and other AI video tools in the market.

What makes it different:
Lifelike performances: Actors feature nuanced delivery, subtle eye movement, and natural skin texture without the typical "AI sheen."
Character consistency: Save and reuse digital actors across multiple videos to build recognizable brand spokespeople.
Reference flexibility: Upload reference images to create specific actors or generate completely new personas from scratch.
The tool works by simply uploading an audio file or script, describing your desired actor, and letting Mirage generate a complete video with micro-expressions, hand gestures, and emotional nuance.
It's available now at mirage.app with a free plan offering 600 credits.
