🎮 Six hours live, ten clips out

Turn a Long VOD Into
Postable Highlights

Paste the YouTube link for your stream and AI reads everything you said across the whole thing, then cuts the moments worth posting into captioned vertical clips. Your first clip is free.

Built for streamers

Nobody is rewatching six hours to find the forty seconds.

The VOD is where highlights go to die. Everyone means to go back through it, everyone knows there were four or five genuinely good moments in there, and nobody wants to sit through their own stream at 1x looking for them.

GhostShorts reads the stream instead. The whole VOD is transcribed word by word, and an AI reads that transcript end to end for passages that work standing alone — the rant with a shape to it, the story you told between rounds, the explanation that came out unusually clean. Each one gets cut and ranked against the others in the batch.

Be aware of what the signal is: it reads your commentary. There is no chat analysis, no audio-spike detection, and nothing watching the game. On a talkative stream that works well. On a silent playthrough it has nothing to go on, and we would rather say so here than take the money.

  • Works on the talking: reactions, commentary, just-chatting, rants, tutorials
  • Up to twenty clips per VOD, twenty to ninety seconds each
  • Search the VOD for a moment you half-remember, no extra credits
  • Set the crop once so your cam corner lands in frame across the batch
  • Clean 1080x1920 MP4s, no watermark, yours to monetize

Two hours per link

Long sessions need splitting — two hours of source is what gets processed and billed per video. Most streamers point it at the stretch they know was the good one.

Find the bit you remember

Type the game, the bit, or a phrase you know you said, and it pulls clips from around it out of the transcript. Ten searches per VOD, all free.

Captions that hold up muted

Word-synced captions in seventeen styles with the active word highlighted, burned into the file. Fix a mistranscribed game name in place without breaking the timing.

No fake auto-reframe

Other tools promise speaker tracking. This does not have it, so it does not claim it. You set full or fit, a focal point, or a crop rectangle, and it stays put for the clip.

The Stream Is Over. The Clips Are Not.

You already did the hard part live. This is the part that gets skipped.

1

Get the VOD on YouTube

Export or mirror the stream to YouTube — unlisted is fine — and paste the link. Two hours of source per video.

2

It Reads What You Said

Every word is transcribed and timestamped, and an AI reads the whole transcript for moments that hold up out of context. Commentary is the signal, not chat and not volume.

3

Crop, Caption, Post

Set the crop once so your cam sits where you want it, pick a caption style, and pull the batch down as a ZIP. Clean 1080p, no watermark.

Made a Reddit story short in the middle of my chem class. 100K views before I got home.

Honestly thought this was just another overhyped AI tool. But it actually delivers and is super easy to use. I already created 10 shorts in 1 day.

Tried a couple viral formats on the app. A month later... 10 million views. This app is stupid easy to use.

Used to doom scroll all night. Now I post the same type of videos I used to binge.

I run a few fake text story channels. Jesus I've hit over 5 million likes on just one of my channels alone. It's ridiculous.

Not directly — YouTube links only for now. Most streamers already export or mirror their VODs to YouTube, and an unlisted upload works exactly like a public one. Once it has a YouTube link, paste it in.
It reads what you said. The whole stream is transcribed with per-word timing and an AI reads that transcript looking for a passage that opens on something, holds together, and ends. It does not read chat, it does not watch the gameplay, and it does not look for volume spikes — the signal is your commentary.
Correct, and it is better to know that now. A stream where you barely talk gives the model nothing to select on. Streams that clip well here are the talkative ones: reactions, commentary, chatting segments, rants, tutorials, anything where the audio carries the moment.
Two hours of source is what gets processed and billed per video, so a six-hour stream needs splitting into parts if you want the whole thing covered. In practice most streamers upload the two or three hours they know were the good ones rather than the full sitting.
Yes. After processing, type what you remember saying — a game name, a bit, a story you told — and it searches the transcript and returns clips from around it. Ten searches per VOD, none of them cost extra credits.
Only if you put it there. There is no face detection and no auto-reframe. You set a crop — full or fit, a focal point, or a rectangle you draw — and it holds for the whole clip. Since most overlays park the cam in a fixed corner, setting the focal point once usually covers a whole batch, but you do have to set it.
Up to twenty per VOD, fewer when the stream genuinely does not contain twenty standalone moments. Each clip is twenty to ninety seconds, which is what Shorts, TikTok, and Reels want.
The single strongest moment from the first six minutes of your own VOD, cut and captioned, playing in the browser. One per video, no card. Worth pointing at a stream where you were talking from the start.
