How it works
Make more from the videos you already made
Use your own source file or a supported public link. Clippex transcribes the video, ranks scenes and renders clips using your caption and framing choices. You review the results and choose what to publish to YouTube.
Find one idea worth stopping for
A long video can cover a whole topic. A short clip works better when a new viewer can quickly understand one idea. Look for a useful tip, a surprising explanation or a strong demonstration rather than trying to squeeze the entire video into one clip.
Turn landscape into a vertical frame
Select 9:16 for a vertical output. Check that the crop keeps your subject visible. If your video depends on slides, software or a product demonstration, review the framing carefully so the key detail stays readable.
Give the clip a finishing pass
Choose captions that suit your channel, then watch the output from beginning to end. Check the opening, names, framing and ending. Download the file and add your title, description and publishing settings in YouTube.
Before you make your first clips
Can I turn an existing YouTube video into Shorts?
Yes. Use a supported public source link or upload the original video file. Only process content you own or have permission to use.
Does Clippex publish directly to YouTube?
This workflow gives you finished clips to review and download. Upload them to your own YouTube channel and choose your publishing settings there.
Can the same clip go to Reels and TikTok?
Vertical 9:16 output can be used across these feeds. Review each platform’s current upload limits and keep captions clear of its interface controls.
