Use case

Short clips and YouTube videos from what you already have

ShortsFromVideo turns one long video — a podcast, lecture or interview — into ranked, reframed, captioned short clips, plus a blog post and social posts from the same recording. AutoVideoStudio turns a topic into a researched YouTube video in which every scene cites its source. Both are free for your first 3 months, then you pay only for what you use, at our cost.

The problem

What gets in the way

  • Cutting shorts from a long recording takes hours of scrubbing and captioning.
  • Faceless explainer videos are slow to research, and easy to get wrong.
  • Clip tools charge per minute every month, even in months you post little.

What helps

Step by step

How to do it

  1. 1

    Upload a long video

    Add a podcast, lecture, interview or stream recording to ShortsFromVideo.

  2. 2

    Get ranked moments

    Speech is transcribed on our servers; moments are scored and each clip gets a plain reason for its score.

  3. 3

    Render and edit clips

    Clips are reframed on the speaker, captioned and trimmed of fillers. Fix any clip in the editor.

  4. 4

    Or start from a topic

    In AutoVideoStudio, write a brief; it researches, scripts with sources and stops on unsupported claims before rendering.

Be sure

When Surge Software is not the right tool

Direct posting to YouTube, Instagram or TikTok from ShortsFromVideo is not available yet — you download the clips. AutoVideoStudio's voice and 1080p options are limited today; check its site for what is live.
