One pass finds the speech, cuts the dead air, and produces clips ready to upload.
Speech is transcribed locally, then used to find exactly where the talking starts and stops.
Dead air, pauses, and filler words are trimmed automatically — only the speech-only scenes remain.
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.
Optional face-aware cropping keeps the speaker centered in the 9:16 frame instead of a flat center-crop.
Styled captions with optional karaoke-style word highlighting, positioned clear of platform UI overlays.
The loudest, most energetic moments — found across the whole original video and cut straight from it as ready-to-post clips.
An optional local AI reads the transcript to pick funny, dramatic, or quotable moments — and drafts titles, captions, and hashtags. Experimental, and runs entirely on your machine.
Add background music with automatic ducking under speech, and overlay your own watermark.
Queue up a whole folder of videos and walk away — no high-end GPU required, the core pipeline runs comfortably on ordinary consumer hardware.
One real recording, run through ViralBurst with default settings. Nothing staged, nothing hand-edited afterward.
Same recording, same order, same content — just the dead air gone.
Two of the highest-ranked moments, straight out of highlights_916/.
No trial credits, no monthly bill, no surprise price hike.
