FAQ
Long video to short video FAQs
How many clips can I get from one long video?
That depends on the source, but many creators get roughly 8 to 15 usable clips from a 20-minute long-form recording.
Can I use this for Indian languages?
Yes. Captions and subtitle translation are available for multiple languages, including Hindi and several regional workflows.
Do I need editing skills?
No. The AI handles the heavy lifting, and the final review process is simple enough for non-editors.
Can I still edit clips after AI generates them?
Yes. You can trim, restyle, or adjust clip timing before exporting if you want extra control.
Will the clips include captions?
Yes. Auto captioning is part of the workflow, which helps improve accessibility and watch time on muted feeds.
