SendShort is an AI short-form video tool that turns long videos and YouTube links into ready-to-post shorts. Its AI picks the highest-retention moments, burns in animated captions in 100+ languages, adds B-roll and hook titles, and exports in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 for Shorts, Reels, TikTok and LinkedIn. You can work in the full timeline editor or hand the job to an AI agent: SendShort exposes an MCP endpoint plus an API so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and automation tools like n8n and Zapier can import, clip, caption and render videos for you. Plans run from $15/mo (billed yearly) with a built-in scheduler for TikTok and YouTube.
