Create vertical short-form videos

Choose an Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts preset, trim a clip, fit or crop it to a 9:16 frame, and add up to 10 text overlays with their own start and end times, position, and color. Preview captions while the video plays, and optionally replace the soundtrack. Exports are 720 × 1280 pixels, limited to two minutes, and created locally in your browser. Check each platform's latest upload requirements before publishing.
