Production launch
Build shorts faster without turning your browser into a render farm.
Shortsmith is a web SaaS plus desktop companion for creators who want a real short-form workflow: plan the hook, cut the footage, rewrite the title, then publish everywhere with the metadata still under your control.
Why this setup works
Plan shorts from long-form video with reusable AI prompt templates
Finish 9:16 edits locally in the desktop companion with FFmpeg-powered export
Store every finished short in a cloud bank with retention rules and editable metadata
Publish to YouTube and Instagram with job tracking instead of guesswork
Free plan includes one finished short per day and 30 days of cloud retention. Final rendering stays local in the desktop companion to keep costs sane.
