How it works

Drop it in, pick a look,
download

Sign up and you can try 30 minutes for free right away. You can close the tab while your shorts are being made.

1

Add a link or a file

Paste a YouTube URL or upload your own video, anywhere from 3 minutes to 3 hours long.

2

Choose languages and options

Set the source language (or let it auto-detect) and the shorts language: Korean, Japanese or English. Then pick a template, how many shorts and how long.

3

AI picks the moments

It watches to the very end, scores each candidate scene and tells you why it picked it.

4

Tweak and download

Fix titles, move the start or end, or switch templates and re-render. None of it uses your minutes. Caption files (SRT) come with a paid pass.

Languages

Shorts for viewers
in their own language

Source videos can be Korean, Japanese or English. Shorts can stay in the original language or come out in another one.

Lite and up

Translated titles and captions

Pick Japanese or English as the shorts language and the titles, captions and comment cards are translated. Subtitles burned into the original picture are blurred so they don’t clash.

All plans, free trial included

Auto-detect the source language

Not sure which language a video is in? Set the source to auto-detect and speech recognition works it out.

Pro and Biz

Optional AI narration

A line at the start and one or two in the pauses, written in your shorts’ language and read by a natural-sounding AI voice (14 to choose from). The original audio dips while it speaks.

Lite and up · YouTube links only

Real viewer comments

Comment templates show real top comments from the original YouTube video, never made-up ones, translated along with everything else.

Why ShortsMate

It doesn’t just pick.
It tells you why.

Every pick shows a score, the reason it was chosen and where it sits in the original, so deciding what to post takes seconds.

Titles and captions done for you

It reads the dialogue, adds captions and writes a two-line title. If the original already has subtitles, it doesn’t add a second set.

2

Comments from real viewers

Put real top comments from the original video on screen. Nothing is invented.

3

Edits are free

Change titles, start and end points or the template and re-render as often as you like without using minutes.

Templates

13 templates,
or save your own

Fonts, colours and caption position are all set by the template, and you can switch templates after the shorts are made. Every short is vertical 9:16 and up to 60 seconds.

FAQ

Questions people ask
before they start

The Korean-only dashboard, languages, the free trial, payments and copyright.

Is the app available in English?

Not yet. The dashboard you sign in to, including the form and the results screen, is in Korean for now. Browser translation (Chrome, Edge, Safari) works well on it. The shorts themselves come out in the language you pick: Korean, Japanese or English.

Which languages are supported?

Source videos in Korean, Japanese or English, or auto-detect. Shorts in the same language as the source, or in Korean, Japanese or English. Translating into another language needs a paid pass (Lite and up), and AI narration needs Pro or Biz.

What does the free trial include?

30 source minutes, once, when you sign up with Google or Kakao. No card needed. Each video makes up to 3 shorts in its own language, and comment cards and narration aren’t included.

How long can the video be? How long are the shorts?

You can put in videos from 3 minutes to 3 hours long. Each short is vertical (9:16) and up to 60 seconds, and you choose how many to make and roughly how long they are.

How do payments and refunds work?

Each pass lasts 30 days and never renews automatically. Prices are in US dollars, and tax may be added at checkout depending on your country. Card checkout in USD opens soon; until then you can start with the free trial. Within 14 days of buying a pass you can ask for a refund of the minutes you haven’t used, pro rata.

Can I post straight to YouTube or TikTok?

Not yet. Direct upload is coming soon; for now you download the videos and post them yourself.

Can I use any YouTube video?

Only videos you made or have the rights to use. Clipping someone else’s video without permission can infringe copyright, and you are responsible for what you post. Terms of Service
