About
MakeShort is an online AI video creation platform for creators and social media teams. It turns Reddit stories, scripts, and chat-style conversations into short videos with AI narration, synchronized captions, background visuals, and music. Creators can customize voice, subtitle, and visual styles, preview their work, and export MP4 videos for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.
Features
- Problem
- Creators spend too long searching Reddit for stories with audience interest.
- How it works
- A live trends dashboard surfaces popular AITA and true-crime posts, refreshes every 60 minutes, and supports filtering and search.
- Result
- Creators can move from a trending thread to video creation without hours of scrolling.
- Why
- Choosing from already popular stories reduces discovery work.
- Problem
- Copying and reformatting a Reddit post for a video script is tedious.
- How it works
- A one-click import brings the post title, body, and structure into the video studio, where the content is split into scenes.
- Result
- The story is ready to customize and generate without manual copy-paste.
- Why
- Automating the handoff removes repetitive preparation.
- Problem
- Long stories need pacing and structure to work as short videos.
- How it works
- MakeShort identifies story hooks and reveals, adjusts emotional pacing, and can split a story into parts for a series.
- Result
- A Reddit thread becomes a paced, multi-part or single-video script.
- Why
- A structured narrative gives short-form viewers a clear reason to keep watching.
- Problem
- Recording narration and synchronizing captions and visuals takes editing time.
- How it works
- Creators choose from AI voices and languages, caption styles, background footage, and music; the system synchronizes narration and subtitles and can lower music during speech.
- Result
- A narrated video with synchronized captions and selected visuals is generated.
- Why
- Bundling these production steps reduces manual editing.
- Problem
- Producing branded videos for multiple platforms or at scale requires repeated formatting and styling.
- How it works
- Exports include platform-oriented aspect ratios and safe zones, with reusable subtitle styles, color palettes, and watermarks; batch and multilingual workflows are supported.
- Result
- Teams can produce a series of videos with a consistent look, ready for short-form platforms.
- Why
- Consistent settings make recurring production easier for creators and teams.
