How it works

01

Connect

Link your YouTube channel and select which long-form channels to monitor. KATANORA watches for new uploads around the clock.

02

Clip

AI reads transcripts, identifies the strongest 45-second moments, and cuts each one as a vertical video — no manual review needed.

03

Post

Captions burn in automatically. Each clip uploads directly to your YouTube Shorts channel with an optimized title, description, and tags.

Built for creators

Fully automated pipeline

Every step from detection to upload runs without manual input. Configure once, then let it run 24/7 in the background.

AI moment detection

Groq-powered AI analyzes transcripts to surface high-engagement moments — insights, stories, and hooks proven to perform on short-form platforms.

Karaoke-style captions

Word-by-word caption cards burned directly into each clip. The format that increases watch time and reach on YouTube Shorts.

Your channel, your content

Clips upload to your connected YouTube channel via your own account. Your content stays under your control.
