The hardest part of making Shorts was never the editing — it was finding the 30 seconds worth editing. “Clip by description” removes that step: you say what you want, and the AI finds it.
It reads the transcript, not the pixels
When you submit a YouTube link, the transcript is pulled and analysed. Because the AI understands the words being said, you can search by meaning rather than by timestamp. Type “the strongest hook” or “the part where they disagree” and it maps your intent to the exact segment.
Every candidate is scored
Each suggested clip comes back with a score that estimates viral potential — based on signals like a clear hook, a self-contained idea, emotional punch, and a natural start and end point. You get a ranked shortlist instead of a wall of raw footage.
- Describe the moment in plain English
- Get ranked, timestamped candidates in seconds
- Preview, then render the ones you like to 9:16
Why this beats manual scrubbing
Manual clipping is slow and biased toward the parts you happen to remember. A transcript-aware AI surfaces strong moments you forgot were in the video — often the best-performing ones. It also makes batching realistic: pulling ten clips from one upload is a few clicks, not an afternoon.
