How it works

How the short clips generator works

Upload a long-form video and our AI scans the entire transcript for high-impact moments: funny lines, insightful takes, emotional reactions, strong hooks, and quotable statements. Each moment is scored for virality potential.

The top moments are automatically clipped into standalone short-form videos with animated captions, vertical framing, speaker tracking, and platform-optimized formatting. A single 60-minute video typically produces 30+ clips.

Why short clips

Why turn long videos into short clips?

Short-form video is the fastest-growing content format on every major platform. TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn all prioritize short clips in their algorithms. Repurposing long content into shorts multiplies your reach without creating anything new.

Creators who consistently post short clips from their long-form content see 5-10x more total views than posting the long video alone. Our generator automates this entire workflow.

AI detection

How does AI find the best moments?

Our AI goes beyond simple keyword matching. It uses semantic understanding to identify moments that will resonate with audiences: surprising statements, emotional peaks, clear takeaways, strong opinions, humor, and compelling stories.

You can also guide the AI with text prompts like 'find every moment about pricing' or 'clip the funniest reactions.' The combination of AI intelligence and your creative direction produces clips that feel hand-picked.

Amy L.

Finance creator

"In the past I've tried to get my YouTube video editor to create mass amount of short form content, but they struggled. Economically it didn't make sense and the quality wasn't great. Choppity has been an INCREDIBLE asset in scaling up my short-form video reach. Having ALL the clips automatically clipped, styled and ready to publish has been the biggest lever to growing my businesses."
