Getting started

Is there an AI where I can describe the edit in words and it edits my video?

Yes. In Shorty, upload your clips and describe the edit in plain words: length, format, order, captions, music and pace. Shorty edits your footage and renders a finished MP4. To change it, describe the change and the rest stays.

What a good description includes

Who the video is for, the length and format, the opening shot, what must be shown, how it ends, and anything to avoid. You do not need editing vocabulary; “make the start faster” works.

Try it

Make a 20-second vertical video from my clips for Instagram. Open on the finished cake, then show the decorating, end on the shop logo. Cut to the beat of my song, white captions, no slow motion.

Edit your video with a text prompt

Prompt-based editing

Yes. Upload your raw clips, write what you want in plain words (length, format, story order, captions, music, pace) and Shorty plans the cut, edits your footage and renders a finished MP4. To change something, say what should change and the rest of the edit stays. You never open a timeline.

Write a useful prompt

Creative direction

Describe the source footage, audience, format, story order and constraints. Tell Shorty what must remain accurate, which shot should lead and what the viewer should understand at the end. A reference video is optional; a clear written brief can supply the direction.

Revise by chat

Feature

Shorty is an AI video editor you can revise by chat. Open an existing edit and describe the change in plain language, such as a new opening, different shot timing or corrected title text, or select an editable title or graphic in the preview and say what should change. Shorty renders a new version to compare with the previous cut.

Questions, answered.

Do I need editing experience?

No. Describe the result; Shorty chooses the shots and the cuts.

Does it make new footage?

No. It edits the clips you upload.
