Why Snipri
2short.ai is built around pasting a YouTube link. Snipri takes public YouTube video links too, plus file uploads, other video links, Dropbox and Google Drive.
Word-level captions in the style you pick, with your own fonts and colours. Changing them re-renders the clip without using minutes.
2short.ai meters analysis hours and, on Lite, fast exports separately. Snipri's minutes cover selection, reframing, captions and export.
Every candidate is scored on hook, payoff, standalone sense, arc and quotability. Hook, payoff and standalone sense each have to reach 7/10 or the moment is dropped, and the five scores sit next to every clip so you can see why it was picked.
Plans meter minutes of source video. Cutting ten clips from an hour costs the same as cutting three, and changing captions or trimming afterwards uses no minutes.
Snipri is made by a single developer. Email goes to the person who wrote the code, and the limits are written on the page instead of discovered in the support queue.
AI clipping
Snipri reads the transcript for complete thoughts with a strong hook and a clear payoff, and drops the rest.
Interview · Single-speaker and split-screen highlights.
Smart reframe
Face tracking keeps the speaker in a 9:16 frame, and a stacked layout keeps two people visible when they share the shot.
Technology interview · From close-up to two speakers in frame.
Captions
Pick a style, then fine-tune fonts, colours and position. Saved brand fonts and colours apply to every clip.
Editor
Trim or split a clip, rewrite the hook title card, and add your own text, images and logo before you export.
