One-time price · Runs on your computer

One long video.
Every short it deserves.

ViralBurst's built-in AI watches and listens to your long video, picks the moments worth posting — the funny lines, the big reactions, even the silent ones — and cuts them into captioned vertical clips for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram/Facebook Reels. The AI runs on your own computer: no subscription, no upload, no credits to run out of.

The honest comparison

Most clip tools rent you the software.

ViralBurst is built differently on purpose — pay once, own it, and nothing ever leaves your machine.

What it does

Everything between "long video" and "posted."

One run transcribes, lets the AI pick the best moments, cuts the dead air, and produces captioned clips ready to upload.

AI Highlights — a local AI that actually watches the video

Right after transcription, a vision AI model running on your own hardware reads the transcript, looks at the footage, and checks for the loudest moments — then picks the clips most likely to do well: funny, shocking, emotional, quotable. It even catches the moments where nobody's talking, like a big reaction or a clutch play. Every pick comes with a reason and a viral category. Models download with one click; a GPU makes it fast, and multiple GPUs are used together.

Automatic transcription

Speech is transcribed locally, then used to find exactly where the talking starts and stops — and to cut clips on sentence edges, never mid-word.

Silence & filler cut out

Dead air, long pauses, and filler words like "umm" and "uhh" are trimmed automatically.

Curse-word censor

Bleep or mute profanity in every output, with a streaming-safe word list you can edit. Subtitles are masked to match.

Smart vertical crop

Optional face-aware cropping keeps the speaker centered in the 9:16 frame instead of a flat center-crop.

Burned-in subtitles

Styled captions with optional karaoke-style word highlighting, positioned clear of platform UI overlays.

Manual editor

Want a clip the AI didn't pick? Open any video, scrub with the slider, hit Start clip and Stop clip while it plays — done.

Ad reads

Drop your sponsor spot into the jump cut edit at the start, the end, or any time you choose — as many times as you like.

Music & watermark

Add background music with automatic ducking under speech, and overlay your own watermark.

Batch mode

Queue up a whole folder of videos and let it run overnight. Pause, resume, or cancel any time.

Jump cut edit

Every scene stitched back into one long-form video with the dead air removed — a fully edited version of your original recording, not just short clips. The tedious editing work, done automatically.
