About

Send a video link or file and get back the moments worth posting, cut into short clips with captions burned in.

What it does

  • Finds the strongest moments of a long video or podcast, each with its timecode and why it works
  • Cuts them into vertical clips with captions burned in, plus SRT files
  • Writes titles, descriptions, tags and chapters for YouTube and captions for TikTok, Reels and Shorts
  • Turns a brief into a script and storyboard, plans B-roll for key moments, and assembles a first cut

What you need

  • Nothing to start: a video link or file is enough
  • YouTube (optional) to read your channel's videos and update titles, descriptions and chapters once you approve
  • A video generation service only if you already use one, for AI B-roll

How setup works

In the first minutes you get clips cut from a video you choose. Then it learns your platforms and caption style, connects YouTube, and drafts clips and chapters for one of your own videos.

What stays in your hands

  • Nothing is published or changed on your channel or social accounts without your go-ahead on the exact clip and text

What you will need

  • YouTube

Frequently asked questions

Can it turn a YouTube video into Shorts?

Yes. Give it the link or the file: it picks the best moments, cuts them vertically with captions burned in, and writes a title and caption for each.

Can it add subtitles to my video?

Yes. It transcribes the audio and delivers captions burned into the video, an SRT file, or both, in the style you choose.

Can it write YouTube descriptions and chapters?

Yes. It reads the video, writes the title, description, tags and chapters with accurate timestamps, and updates your channel only once you approve.

Does it post to TikTok or Instagram?

It can, from its own screen, signed in to your account, and only after you approve the clip and the caption. By default it hands you the files.

Can it make a video from a brief?

Yes. It writes the script and a storyboard for your approval, plans B-roll for the key moments, and assembles a first cut from your footage and assets.
