  "where_viralmint_wins": [
    "Trend scouting + competitor analysis are upstream of clipping. Quso.ai assumes you already have the source video; ViralMint surfaces what to clip first via a 5-platform scout with outlier detection.",
    "Runs locally and open-source (AGPL-3.0): Whisper, yt-dlp and FFmpeg execute on your machine, so your source video never leaves it — and the pipeline is auditable and forkable. Quso.ai is closed-source cloud SaaS.",
    "No subscription. Quso.ai starts at $24/mo regardless of usage; ViralMint's clip extraction is free on the desktop (only the AI virality scoring uses ~$0.02/clip of prepaid credit).",
    "A local MCP server (118 tools) drives the whole pipeline from Claude Code or Cursor — Quso.ai has no MCP / agent-automation surface.",
    "Local Whisper with no metered transcription minutes — useful across hours of podcast or webinar content."
  ],
  "where_competitor_wins": [
    "Browser-based suite — no install. Drop a URL or upload an mp4 and clips, captions, chapters and social previews come back in one cloud workflow on any device.",
    "Quso.ai schedules and publishes finished clips to up to 7 platforms from the same app. ViralMint deliberately doesn't auto-publish — it hands you the mp4 plus AI-drafted titles to post yourself.",
    "Broader publishing/social layer (templates, progress bars, social previews, AI avatars) for teams that want clip-to-post in one hosted tool."
