Long Video to Shorts FAQ
How do I convert a long video into shorts?
Upload your long video to Klypse, select your target format (9:16 for vertical), and click process. AI will analyze the entire video, find the best moments, and create multiple short clips with captions automatically.
How many shorts can I get from a long video?
Typically 5-15 shorts per long video. A 30-minute video usually yields 8-12 quality clips. A 2-hour recording could produce 20+ clips. Each is scored for engagement potential.
