Paste a link.
Ship the shorts.

ShortForge clips long videos into vertical, captioned shorts — then posts them straight to your TikTok and Instagram. YouTube Shorts come out as a one-click export. Every frame stays editable.

Free plan: 3 shorts a month from an idea or format. Clipping from a link starts on Pro — no card needed to try the editor.

Nobody tells you this about the deep forest at 3am

Three ways in

One editor on the other side of all of them.

Most tools stop at a locked template. Every short here lands as a real draft — rewrite the captions, regenerate any visual, swap the voice, change the caption style.

01

From a link

Drop a YouTube video, stream VOD or podcast. ShortForge finds the moments worth clipping and cuts them vertical with burned-in captions.

From an idea

Type one line. Get a full faceless short — script, AI voiceover, visuals and captions — as an editable draft.

The editor

The AI drafts it. You make it yours.

Every short opens in a real editor with a live vertical preview. Rewrite a caption, regenerate a visual, swap the voice or the caption style — then render the finished file.
