MakeShorts

MakeShorts is a web-based AI video repurposing tool for creators, small businesses, and marketing teams that turns long-form videos into short-form clips for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram Reels.

Key capabilities include:

• AI clipping that detects engaging moments (jokes, reveals, reactions, gameplay highlights) and generates multiple shorts from a single source video
• Smart vertical reframing with face detection to keep the main speaker in frame when converting landscape to portrait
• AI captions and subtitles, plus multiple caption styles and animated captions, with broad multilingual support
• Social captions that generate descriptions and hashtags to help with discovery

Pricing: Freemium. Free plan includes 30 credits/month with watermark and lower-quality exports; paid plans include Lite $6/month (billed annually), Plus $9.75/month (billed annually), and Pro $19.75/month (billed annually), with higher upload limits, no watermark, and unlimited shorts.

Notable for combining highlight detection, virality-oriented clip selection, and auto reframing into a single workflow designed for speech-focused content such as video podcasts, lectures, interviews, and webinars, reducing the need for manual editing.
