What is MakeShorts?

MakeShorts is an AI tool that transforms long-form YouTube videos into short, social-media-ready clips. It automates the process of identifying engaging segments, applying visual effects, and adding captions so you can repurpose existing content for platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts without manual editing. The tool handles clipping, autofocusing on speakers or key moments, subtitle generation, and social media captions in one workflow. It's useful for content creators, marketers, and YouTubers who want to extend the reach of their videos without spending hours in a video editor. You can try it free without providing a credit card.
