Everything you need

Built for the modern creator

A full-stack AI pipeline from upload to export, so you can focus on content, not editing.

AI Highlight Detection

Gemini AI analyzes your video for the most engaging moments — hooks, key insights, emotional peaks — and scores every segment.

Auto Captions & Subtitles

Deepgram-powered transcription with 98%+ accuracy. Animated captions are burned in using Remotion for platform-native look.

Smart Clipping with FFmpeg

AWS Lambda runs FFmpeg to cut, trim, and re-encode your clips in the cloud — no waiting, no local processing.

Direct S3 Upload

Presigned URLs let you upload videos of any size straight to S3 — bypassing server limits for blazing-fast ingestion.

SEO Virality Scoring

Each highlight receives a virality score (0–100) based on engagement potential, pacing, and keyword density.

Background Processing

Inngest-powered event queue handles all heavy lifting asynchronously. Your clips are ready while you focus on creating.

Multi-Platform Export

Export clips optimized for TikTok (9:16), Instagram Reels (9:16), YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn with one click.

Enterprise Security

Arcjet protects every API endpoint with rate limiting, bot detection, and AI prompt injection prevention.

Simple 4-step workflow

From upload to viral in minutes

No editing experience needed. Our end-to-end AI pipeline handles everything automatically.

01

Upload Your Video

Drag and drop any long-form video (up to 4GB). We use AWS S3 presigned URLs for instant, server-free upload.

02

AI Analyzes & Transcribes

Deepgram transcribes your audio. Gemini AI then reads the transcript and video metadata to identify the highest-impact moments.

03

Auto-Clip & Caption

FFmpeg (via AWS Lambda) cuts and encodes each highlight. Remotion Lambda renders animated captions directly onto each clip.

04

Download & Publish

Review AI-scored clips in your dashboard. Download optimized files or publish directly to your favorite platforms.

I upload my 2-hour podcast and get back 10 perfectly trimmed, captioned clips ready to post. The virality scores are surprisingly accurate — I can always tell which ones will blow up.

Managing clips for 5 brand accounts used to require a full editing team. VidShorts let us scale to 50+ clips a week with just two people. It's genuinely transformative.

The animated captions look so professional. People keep asking what editor I use, and I just say AI. My audience engagement is up 180% since switching.

I was skeptical AI could understand the nuance in documentary storytelling, but it surprised me. It found emotional beats I almost missed myself.

ROI was clear in week one. We went from 2 short-form videos a week to 30+. Our LinkedIn impressions went from 50K to 800K monthly. Nothing else has moved the needle like this.
