For example a script or something to lets say apply opacity from 100 to 0 starting on 1st frame of clip and ending on last not having to do it manually because all the clips are different lenght?

As an example, this opacity expression would do what you're suggesting (I think):

linear(time,inPoint,outPoint,100,0)

In my (paid) extension Automation Blocks, the Better Fade Tool is a good option:

 

It can fade all selected layers in and out and takes different durations of the layers into account. It can also create fades which look better than basic opacity fades.

 

Note that the Better Fade Tool is part of Automation Blocks' Community Library. Here is the direct link to the Better Fade Tool. - just download the xml file and load it into Automation Blocks. It also works with the free (time-limited) trial of Automation Blocks.,

Anything from expressions stored in an animation preset that can be applied in bulk to actual scripts that mass-apply or change properties and keyframes. Start by checking AEScripts.com.
