About this tool
The service accepts MP4, MOV or WebM uploads up to 2 GB, runs a full‑video transcription, and slices the content into vertical clips that start and end on complete sentences. Each clip is automatically reframed: faces are tracked and kept centered, while screen‑recorded slides remain full‑frame. The output formats include 9:16 for Shorts and Reels, 4:5 for Instagram feed, and the tool supplies four caption styles with customizable highlight colors.
After creation, users can adjust clip start/end points, edit titles, and choose caption placement before exporting all shorts as individual MP4 files inside a ZIP archive. Early‑access scheduling options let creators push the videos to YouTube, TikTok or Instagram at a later time, with titles generated automatically for YouTube uploads.
What you can do
Full‑video transcription with word‑level timing
When a file is uploaded, the AI listens to the entire recording, produces a complete transcript, and creates captions that appear exactly when each word is spoken, supporting multiple languages.
Dynamic face‑tracking and automatic zoom
The platform detects the speaker’s face throughout the source video, keeps the face in the frame, and applies smooth virtual camera movements to maintain focus even as the subject moves.
Multi‑platform export and scheduling
Created shorts can be downloaded as a ZIP of MP4 files or scheduled for later publishing on YouTube Shorts, TikTok (early access) and Instagram Reels or feed, with titles pre‑filled for YouTube.
Who is it for?
- A tech reviewer wants to extract several 45‑second highlights from a 20‑minute product demo, keep the presenter’s face centered, add karaoke‑style captions, and schedule the clips for release on TikTok over the next week.
- A language teacher uploads a recorded lecture, lets the system generate word‑timed subtitles in the original language, trims each segment to a chosen length, and bundles the vertical clips for students to download and view on mobile devices.
- A marketing team repurposes a brand video by creating 9:16 Instagram Reels, applying the Impact caption style, and using the scheduling feature to publish the shorts on YouTube Shorts at optimal times.
Before you choose
Assess whether the automated transcription meets the required accuracy for the video's language and accent, as the service relies on AI‑driven speech‑to‑text.
Confirm that the necessary API permissions are granted for each social platform, because scheduling may depend on separate authentication steps.
