## What it is
An open-source Python tool that turns YouTube videos into ready-to-post vertical short videos by automatically detecting highlights, adding subtitles, translation, and AI-generated hooks. It offers both a CLI and a local web interface, with an API for integration into other projects.

## Use cases
- turn youtube videos into tiktok shorts
- generate viral clips from long videos automatically
- auto-detect highlights in a podcast and clip them
- add subtitles and translation to short videos
- free alternative to opusclip for making shorts
- batch generate 9:16 clips from a youtube link
- add ai-generated hooks to video clips

## When to choose
- you want a free, self-hosted alternative to OpusClip or Vidyo.ai
- you process YouTube content into shorts regularly and want no watermarks
- you need programmatic/API access to clip generation
- you want local transcription with faster-whisper instead of cloud services

## When to avoid
- you need a polished commercial product with support
- you don't have any LLM API key available
- you need frame-precise manual video editing rather than automated clipping
- you work with non-YouTube/local sources requiring heavy custom preprocessing
