Paste any public YouTube URL (Twitch and Kick links work too) and SocialClip Studio pulls the video in — or upload a file straight from your computer or Google Drive.

AI finds the best Shorts moments

Our proprietary AI reads the full transcript and watches the video — picking the moments most likely to perform as a Short, based on what is actually said and shown, not just where the audio gets loud.

Get vertical, captioned Shorts — and post them

Each short is reframed to 9:16 with face tracking and captioned in your chosen style. Edit if you want, then publish or schedule straight to YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Reels.

Why creators use it as their YouTube Shorts maker

It's built for volume — one flat price, every feature, no counting credits or minutes.

Unlimited, flat-rate Shorts

$29.95/month for unlimited Shorts. No credits to ration, no per-minute charges, no surprise overage bills when you make Shorts from a long video.

It picks the moments, not you

Most makers are just trimmers. This one reads the whole video and decides which moments are worth a Short, so you start with finished posts instead of raw cuts.

Vertical, captioned, and posted

Smart Reframe keeps the speaker in frame at 9:16, captions are burned in automatically in 23 styles, and you can publish or schedule straight to YouTube Shorts.

YouTube Shorts Maker — FAQ

How do I make YouTube Shorts from a long video?
Paste your video link (or upload a file). The AI transcribes it, finds the best moments, cuts them, reframes each to 9:16, and burns in captions — so you get finished YouTube Shorts in minutes instead of editing by hand.
Is there a free YouTube Shorts maker?
Yes — the free tier gives you 3 videos per month with a small watermark, no credit card required. Paid plans start at $14.95/month and remove the watermark with unlimited Shorts and no per-clip credits.
Can it publish straight to YouTube Shorts?
Yes. Publish or schedule directly to YouTube Shorts, plus TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, and X. Captions are burned into the video so they display correctly everywhere.
Do the Shorts come out vertical and captioned?
Yes. Every short is reframed to vertical 9:16 with face tracking, and captions are burned in automatically in your chosen style. Fine-tune in the editor if you want, but the defaults are ready to post.
Can I make Shorts from an uploaded file, not just a link?
Yes. Upload a video file straight from your computer, import one from Google Drive, or paste a public link from YouTube, Twitch, or Kick. Any of those becomes a batch of Shorts.
