Shorts pulled out of YouTube uploads
2short.ai points at a YouTube video, finds the moments worth cutting, and exports them vertical with face tracking and animated captions. Every plan carries the whole feature set and they differ only in how many hours of video the AI will read a month, which is a pricing shape that suits someone testing the idea. The free tier is thirty minutes of analysis, enough to judge whether the clips it picks are the ones you would have picked.
Our note
The free tier is the reason to start here rather than at Klap or OpusClip: thirty minutes is enough to see which moments the model picks before any money changes hands. If it picks well for your material, the paid tiers are among the cheapest in this category.

Browser video editing with subtitles that hold up
VEED does the jobs a short-form editor repeats every week: auto subtitles, resizing for each platform, background noise removal and translation. Everything runs in a tab, so a Chromebook edits as well as a laptop does. The credit system covers the AI features rather than the editor, and heavy translation work burns through a month of them quickly.
Our note
VEED and Submagic overlap most on captions, and the split is scope: Submagic is sharper at the fast-cut short-form style, VEED does more of the boring work like resizing, translation and noise removal. If captions are the only job, Zubtitle is a third of the price.
