What this does

Widescreen to vertical

Turn horizontal recordings into vertical Shorts with AI framing and captions. On Demand pay-as-you-go or subscription credits — not an unlimited free converter.

  • Smart 9:16 reframing

    AI centers the primary subject so horizontal footage reads on phones.

  • Captions in the same pass

    Transcribe audio and overlay subtitle tracks before you export.

  • On Demand or monthly capacity

    Prove quality on starter credits, then pay as you go or subscribe for Shorts volume.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is the video to Shorts converter free without watermark?
New accounts get a starter pack of AI Credits to try conversion. Ongoing publish-ready volume runs on On Demand ($0.02 USD per credit, top-ups from $1) or a paid plan with monthly Shorts capacity. That is more honest than promising unlimited free, watermark-free exports forever.
How does On Demand work for Shorts?
No monthly subscription. Top up from $1 at $0.02 per credit when you need generations. On Demand credits do not expire. Download assets with credits on On Demand; paid plans include asset downloads.
How many widescreen videos can I convert each month?
On Demand is usage-based — you convert as you top up. Starter, Pro, and Business include 60 / 270 / 540 Shorts generations per month plus managed video hours. See pricing for the full matrix.
