    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for dynamically determining highlights of media content based on user interaction metrics and/or social media metrics. In one embodiment, an example method may include determining media content streamed to user devices over a time period and corresponding to a live event, determining user interaction data associated with the media content and indicative of user interactions with the user devices, determining, using the user interaction data, a quality score for a time interval during the time period, the quality score indicative of user engagement in a segment of the media content, determining, using the time interval and segment-by-segment metadata, a stream start time and a stream end time for the segment, generating, using the stream start time and the stream end time, a clip of the segment, and determining, using the quality score, that the clip is to be included in a highlight.
