Why convert youtube video to shorts?
Convert any long-form YouTube video into 5 vertical Shorts ready to publish. Faceless reads the transcript, finds the strongest 30-60 second moments, reformats to 9:16 with face-tracking, and adds auto-captions. Works on public videos with transcripts available.
How the conversion works
1
Paste a long-form YouTube URL
Public videos with transcripts work best, Faceless reads the transcript to find the highlights. Videos without transcripts fall back to audio analysis, which is less accurate. Private and unlisted videos don't fetch.
2
Auto-find the highlights using transcript scoring
We score each 30-60 second window against narrative density, hook potential, and standalone watchability. Top 5 windows become Shorts.
3
Reformat for vertical 9:16 with face-tracking
Face-tracking keeps the speaker centered when reformatting from 16:9 to 9:16. For non-talking-head sources, we crop to the most active region of frame.
4
Generate batch of 5 Shorts
Up to 5 Shorts from a single long-form video. Each Short has independent caption styling, thumbnail, and metadata, they're meant to publish on different days, not as a series.
