Podcast to Shorts
turn episodes into shareable vertical clips
Convert podcast episodes into YouTube Shorts, TikToks, and Instagram Reels automatically. EditAssist transcribes the audio, finds the best soundbites, adds waveform audiograms or captions, and exports vertical clips ready for social.
Workflow
Ingest your podcast episode and the agent transcribes every speaker, identifies the strongest soundbites under 60 seconds, and ranks them by engagement signals: laughter, emphasis, narrative punch, and shareability. You can refine the selection with plain-English commands like 'only the moments where the guest tells a story'.
From the selected soundbites it builds vertical clips with your choice of waveform audiograms, burned-in captions, or both. It normalises loudness to -14 LUFS for streaming, adds safe-area framing, and exports across all social specs. The whole pipeline is local-first.
Prompts

Features
Soundbite detection
Identifies the most shareable moments using audio energy, speaker emphasis, laughter detection, and narrative structure.
Speaker labelling
Automatically labels which speaker is talking in each segment so clips are attributed correctly.
Audiogram & caption export
Waveform visualisations or clean burned-in captions, with loudness normalised to platform spec.
Vertical batch delivery

Local-first
All transcription, vision analysis, semantic search, and clustering run on your own GPU. Nothing about your footage is uploaded. The only data that leaves is the text of your conversation with the agent. It's free to download, local models are free, and a new account starts with £15 of credit and no card. For long-running cloud work, pay as you go, or choose £20/mo Starter or £100/mo Pro.
