Produce Short-Form Video Content at Scale
Repurpose one long-form video or podcast into 10+ short clips with captions, hooks, and platform-specific formatting, in under 2 hours per week.
Time Required
2 hrs per week
Expected Result
10–15 platform-ready short clips (Reels, TikTok, Shorts) with burned-in captions, strong hooks, and thumbnails, scheduled and ready to post for the week.
Identify the best clips automatically
Upload your long-form video or podcast to Opus Clip. It uses AI to score moments by virality potential and exports the top 10 clips with auto-generated captions and aspect-ratio cropping.
Write stronger hooks for each clip
Export the Opus Clip transcripts and feed them to Claude. Ask it to rewrite the opening 3 seconds of each clip as a pattern-interrupt hook optimized for each platform's audience.
Add B-roll and visual polish
Import the best clips into Descript. Add B-roll, fix jump cuts, apply Studio Sound, and update captions to use the new hooks. Export in the correct format for each platform.
Generate custom thumbnails
Use Canva AI to create thumbnails for YouTube Shorts and TikTok. Use Magic Design to generate options, then edit the text overlay to match your hook.
Schedule across platforms
Upload all clips and thumbnails to Buffer AI. Use its optimal-time scheduling to queue posts across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn for the week.
