Turnaround on short-form clips
Views generated on creator client channels
Clips extracted from a single long-form video
Hook window - we engineer every clip around it
60 seconds. Zero room for filler.
Short-form is won or lost in the first 3 seconds. Every cut, every caption, every transition is engineered to keep viewers watching.
Stop the scroll instantly — first frame does the work
Subvert expectations, keep them curious
Deliver the promise — fast-paced, no filler
The satisfying conclusion they stayed for
Follow, save, or share — one ask only
The first 3 seconds decide everything. A well-edited short retains 55–65% of viewers to the end. A poorly edited one loses 80% of its audience before the payoff.

Common questions about short-form video
How long are the short-form clips you produce?
Typically 30-90 seconds for Reels and TikTok, 60 seconds or less for Shorts. We adjust based on platform trends and your content type.
Do you handle the repurposing strategy, or just the editing?
We focus on editing. However, we flag the strongest moments in long-form videos during the edit so you can build your own content calendar around them.
Can you match the caption style of a reference creator?
Yes. Send a reference during onboarding and we'll match font, size, placement, and animation style exactly.
Do you post the content for us?
Posting is part of the YouTube Channel Management service. Short-Form Editing delivers files ready for you or your team to upload.
What's the turnaround if I submit 10 clips at once?
We process in batches of 3-5 per day. A 10-clip batch typically completes within 3-4 business days. Rush batches available on Growth and Scale.
