What is Shortimize?

Shortimize is an analytics and management tool for creators who post short-form video content across multiple platforms. It pulls data from TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts into a single dashboard, letting you track performance metrics, analyse viewer behaviour, and manage your content strategy without switching between apps. The tool is built for content creators, social media managers, and small teams who want a clearer picture of how their short videos perform across different platforms. It works on a freemium model, so you can start tracking basic metrics without paying upfront.
