Short.now is the AI clipping tool that scans your entire video, scores every moment, and turns the strongest parts into ready-to-post vertical clips — animated captions, 9:16 reframe, and a virality score included.
Drop in a video file or paste a YouTube URL. Short.now ingests it and transcribes every word automatically.
The AI scans the full video — hooks, punchlines, insights — and scores each moment for how likely it is to stop the scroll.
See every clip ranked by virality score. Captions are added, the framing is vertical, and each cut is editable.
Download watermark-free MP4s or publish straight to your platforms. One long video becomes a week of clips.
Analyzes audio energy, speech patterns, and visual peaks to surface the clips most likely to perform — no manual scrubbing.
Crops and reframes to vertical with speaker tracking, so the person talking stays centered even as the shot changes.
Accurate, word-by-word captions synced to speech — the kind that keep viewers watching with the sound off.
Each clip gets a score based on hook strength, pacing, and engagement signals, so you know which to post first.
Short.now transcribes your video, analyzes it for high-engagement moments, and cuts each one into a standalone vertical clip. It then reframes to 9:16, adds animated captions, and ranks every clip by a virality score — all automatically.
