Vidyo.ai — Is It The Ultimate AI-Powered Short Video Maker to Increase Followers on Reels, Shorts, and TikTok?
Short-form videos have grown in popularity ever since the COVID-19 pandemic and the launch of TikTok. Today, 59% of short-form videos are watched for 41–80% of their length, showcasing the massive user base they have grabbed.
Besides creating new short videos, many content creators and marketers tend to create short clips from long-form videos, such as a long YouTube video turned into short video clips for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, LinkedIn, etc. But doesn’t it require video editing skills to cut videos, resize them, and add other effects? Well, Vidyo.ai claims to automate this process with AI-powered capabilities. Therefore, this blog is going to test out Vidyo.ai to validate its functionalities with real tests.
Vidyo.ai — A Quick Overview
Vidyo.ai is an AI-powered web-based content repurposing platform that can make short videos from long ones instantly. It claims to automatically select and create short videos of top moments from your videos using AI intelligence. Its key features include the following:
- Auto-video captioning
- Video resizing
- Video clipping
- Auto-video chapters
- Social media templates
- CutMagic scene detection
All of these features are powered by AI to provide an intuitive, automated, and accurate usability experience.
Let’s now bring Vidyo.ai into the test round and evaluate its claims from different tests.
Experiment #1. Testing Vidyo.ai Auto Short Video Creation from a 2 Minute Video
I heard that Vidyo.ai takes a longer time to process lengthy videos, so I decided to test it out first with a 2-minute YouTube video of the famous bulletproof window smash fail of Cybertruck of Elon Musk.
Once I provided the URL of the video, it interestingly asked me to decide the format of the video, i.e., square, portrait, or landscape. It is a cool option, as you can tell the tool where you want to post the video and get the format accordingly.
Once the tool processed the video and took me to the editor section, it showed various templates in which I could create the short video.
I was hoping that it would automatically create a few short videos from the YouTube video, and I just had to do a bit of customization and download the videos. However, the scene is different.
As per Vidyo.ai, if the uploaded video is shorter than 3 minutes, it won’t generate AI-based short videos. So, I had to manually crop the parts of the videos I wanted to use to create a short video. However, it was pretty easy due to its click-based interface. Plus, it provides a preview option to see how the video will look in TikTok, Reel, etc.
Experiment #2. Testing Vidyo.ai Auto Short Video Creation Capabilities for a Lengthy Video
Now I wanted to test its biggest claim of auto-generating short videos from lengthy videos. For this test, I took a short part of Mr. Beast’s podcast on the “Full Send Podcast” channel and asked it to process it. After waiting for a few minutes, the result I got just amazed me.
The video was four minutes long and it provided me with multiple short clips with different customized titles, subtitles, etc. In short, I could just simply post all of the short clips without even doing a single edit. So, that’s a huge game-changer.
Experiment #3. Testing Vidyo.ai CutMagic Feature
Now that I know the core functionality of Vidyo.ai, I decided to test its other unique functionalities. One feature that got my attention was its “CutMagic” feature. This feature can automatically detect scene change, making multi-camera videos more good quality-wise.
This feature is really cool if you want to create short videos from long podcasts involving multi-cameras. So, I tested the Vidyo.ai CutMagic feature on one of the short clips it created for me from Mr. Beast’s podcast.
After processing the video and viewing the output, I was able to see the magic that CutMagic could do. It intelligently detected and inserted scene changes, making the short video more attractive. However, it seemed to struggle at some points. Overall, it’s another cool feature of Vidyo.ai.
Final Words — Vidyo.ai is Definitely One of the Best Tools to Create Viral Short Videos
After performing multiple tests on Vidyo.ai, I can say that it’s a game-changer. All you have to do is upload the long form video and sit tight until Vidyo.ai processes the video and provides you with multiple, well-formatted short clips. On top of that, its user-friendly interface, innovative CutMagic and other editing features can greatly help in customizing videos as you desire. So, content creators and marketers should definitely give Vidyo.ai a try.
