New uploads.
Clips on autopilot.
Connect your channel once. Every new long-form upload is imported, clipped to 9:16, captioned, and queued for review — so Shorts ship with your cadence, not another editor shift.
Infrastructure for weekly Shorts — not another paste form
Built for channels that already ship long-form. Automation turns every premiere into a default clipping pass, so distribution stops depending on memory and free evenings.
Channel watch
Point HypeNest at the YouTube channel you already run. Public long-form uploads are detected as they land — no post-premiere link chase.
- Connect once; stay synced to new public uploads
- Pipeline starts when long-form goes live
- One-off links still work when you need a manual pass
Auto long-to-shorts
Each import runs the full clipping stack: hooks, vertical reframes, and captions for mute-first feeds on Shorts and TikTok.
Human review gate
Automation drafts. You approve. Weak clips never touch your channel — publish is always a deliberate choice.
- Approve winners in one pass
- Hold or discard weak candidates
- Schedule only what you stand behind

From channel connect to weekly Shorts
Configure once. Let the pipeline draft every time long-form lands.
Connect the channel
Link the YouTube channel you publish on. Automation watches for new public long-form videos.
AI processes each upload
Transcription, highlight detection, 9:16 crop, and captions run as a single pipeline on every new video.
Review and schedule
Open the draft batch, drop weak candidates, refine winners, and schedule Shorts when you are ready.
How the channel watch works
With automation on, HypeNest checks the connected channel on the schedule you set and starts clips for each new upload.
- Every 10 minutes to every 24 hours
- Set how often the channel is checked, from every 10 minutes to once every 24 hours. The default is every 60 minutes.
- Up to 3 new videos per check
- Each check starts clips for up to 3 new uploads. If you publish more at once, the rest are picked up on the next check.
- New uploads only
- Videos published after you turn automation on are clipped. Your back catalog is left alone; paste a link when you want an older video.
- Change it any time
- Switch automation off or change the check interval whenever you like.
Built for cadence, not one-offs.
Manual repurposing fails on a weekly calendar. Automation makes Shorts the default output of every long-form publish.
Who this is built for
Best when long-form already exists and Shorts are the missing distribution layer — not when vertical is a once-a-month experiment.
Weekly YouTubers
Turn each main upload into a multi-day Shorts cadence without a second editing shift.
Podcasts on YouTube
Episodes land as full videos; automation drafts quote clips while the episode is still fresh.
Teams with content ops load
Replace “did anyone clip last week?” with a default pipeline after every publish.
