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.

Making edits CapCut felt homeworkish. GhostShorts is easy af, almost feels likes I am on autopilot.

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.

A short that asks one science question and answers it as a countdown. Scene one asks "What if the Sun vanished right now?", every scene after it opens on a time marker like "Second 0", "Minute 8" or "Year 1", and the last scene lands the aftermath and names the next premise: "Next, what if the Moon split?"
Pick a category (Space, Physics, Earth, Your Body or Society), type a premise or tap Surprise me, and choose 30, 45 or 60 seconds. The AI writes the timeline, generates cinematic scenes, narrates and captions it. Your first scene animates free so you can watch it before you finish the rest.
Because that is what makes a channel, not a single video. The closing line names the next premise, so a viewer who finished one episode is already waiting for the next one, and you always know what to make tomorrow.
The script writer is told to follow real physics and to describe effects at the scale they actually happen, and the timeline markers have to move forward in a believable order. It is a strong first draft, not a peer-reviewed paper. Check any specific number you plan to state as fact before you post it.
Anything that turns a real disaster, a real attack or a real city into the spectacle, anything that targets a group of people, and anything that works as instructions for harm. Ask for the physics instead: what if a volcano chain erupted at once, or what if a nuke went off on the Moon, are fine. If a premise is refused, the generator suggests a safe one you can use in one tap.
No. It is fully faceless. The AI writes, voices, animates and captions; you tweak scenes if you want and export. No camera, no microphone, no editing software.
Yes. Everything you export is yours to post and monetize anywhere.
Yes. GhostShorts has an API and an MCP server. Connect it to Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT (via API) or n8n and ask for a video; see ghostshorts.com/developers.
API and MCP

Make this from ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor

The same template runs through the GhostShorts API and MCP server. Connect it once and ask your assistant for a video; it comes back as a finished MP4 on the same plan and credits.
