Cut one long video into a week of Shorts.

You already made the long video. ClipScout reads what was said, picks the passages that stand on their own, and reframes each one to vertical with captions, so one upload becomes several Shorts.

How to turn a long video into Shorts

  1. 1

    Paste the video link

    Use the link to a video or finished live stream on your channel, or upload the file. Videos up to four hours are accepted.

  2. 2

    Choose what to look for

    Leave it on automatic, or describe the moments you want, such as "the three tips" or "the funniest answers". Set how many clips and how long.

  3. 3

    Review the picks

    Each clip comes with a title, the reason it was picked, and the words spoken in it. Play it, keep it, or ask for different moments.

  4. 4

    Edit and export

    Reframe to 9:16, restyle the captions, add a hook line on top, and export an MP4 to upload as a Short.

Shorts questions

How long can a clip be?
You set the range. Clips are cut to the length you ask for, and you can trim or extend each one in the editor before exporting.
Are the captions added automatically?
Yes. The speech is transcribed, and captions are drawn on the clip with the current word highlighted. You can edit any word and change the style.
Does it keep my face in frame when it goes vertical?
You choose the framing: a centred crop, a position you drag to, or a two-part layout that stacks two areas of the picture. It does not track a moving face by itself.
Does ClipScout upload to YouTube for me?
No. It exports the MP4 and you upload it yourself.
