How to turn YouTube videos into shorts
Turning a long YouTube video into shorts starts with a link, not an upload: paste the URL, and AI pulls the video, looks for the moments with the strongest hooks and cuts them into vertical clips with the speaker framed in the middle. The same works for Vimeo, VK, Rutube, Twitch and Kick links.
This turns a format built for long-form platforms into one that fits a scheduler built for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, without re-filming anything.
Choosing a clipping template for the right kind of video
- Educational: keeps the explanation intact, good for tutorials and how-to videos.
- Full repurpose: reworks a long video into several independent shorts.
- Split screen: pairs the speaker with a second source, useful for reactions and interviews.
- Viral TikTok: leans on pace and captions built for the TikTok feed.
Why an autopilot for YouTube channels saves the most time
The autopilot watches chosen channels and cuts clips the moment a new video appears, so shorts are ready before anyone remembers to check. Clips can wait for review or go straight into the calendar, which matters most for an agency managing several clients’ channels at once.
Subtitles and captions that match your channel
Subtitles are generated automatically and can be restyled to match a channel’s look: font, position and color are set once and reused on every clip, so a viewer recognizes the channel before the first sentence is read.
Where the clips go after cutting
A cut clip is not the finish line. It can be fine-tuned in the video editor, get a caption from the AI content studio and land in the calendar next to text posts, so a single video shoot supports a whole week of publishing.
