Choose footage and direct the edit
Footage selection and story sequencing
Turn a travel shoot, product demonstration or event recording into a selected, ordered cut. Set the message and must-keep moments.
Reference style matching
Apply a reference’s pacing, shot structure, transitions, text treatment and colour direction to your own footage.
Speech with supporting B-roll
Give Shorty a spoken recording and relevant supporting footage. Ask for complete thoughts, cutaways and emphasis; review what illustrates each line.
Shape the picture, captions and sound
Caption fonts, placement and timing
Use speech captions, select from 80 font families, specify visual treatment and request exact wording or timing corrections.
Colour, transitions and picture effects
Request a specific look or choose an effect reference. Browse playable examples of treatments such as CRT, dither, motion trails and colour grades.
Titles, motion graphics and subject effects
Direct animated text and graphics through the brief. Supported treatments include text behind subjects and tracked elements; inspect the rendered result.
Original sound and music direction
Tell Shorty which dialogue or source audio should stay, whether music is wanted, and what sound to preserve during a visual revision.
Revise the cut and make more versions
Written and targeted revisions
Change a shot, opening, timing or caption in the existing edit. Target an editable element when available and compare the next version.
Different hooks and stories
Reuse one shoot across separate briefs. Give each version its own opening, message, ending and review.
Multiple briefs in one batch
Duplicate a brief with +, change the direction and submit the prepared versions using the batch controls. Each render uses credits.
Import, export and work with your team
Seven output canvases
Create 9:16 Reels, 4:5 or square feed videos, landscape work and cinematic 21:9 edits. Check the crop on each version.
Saved footage and Drive import
Reuse saved clips and folders, or select videos from an accessible shared Drive folder for a new edit.
Editing through an AI assistant
Connect Shorty through MCP to submit footage and direction, follow rendering progress and collect the completed video from a compatible assistant.
Shared production workspaces
Business workspaces provide shared projects, footage and credits, with member invitations and owner billing. Check the plan’s available controls.

In this recorded browser test, six supplied clips became a four-shot product film. A follow-up instruction changed the timing to 2, 2, 2 and 4 seconds while keeping the order and total duration. The linked case includes both original exports and all six inputs.
Sources: Inputs, first cut, revision and observations. One first-party browser test. It demonstrates this edit and revision; results depend on the source material and brief.
