Create Short-Form Explainer Videos with AI
Explainer videos break down a topic into a clear, engaging narrative. On TikTok, Shorts, and Reels, the best explainers are under 60 seconds, use a confident voiceover, and overlay key points as on-screen captions. Shortify builds this format automatically.
Enter a topic — "how black holes form", "why sourdough takes 24 hours", "the 80/20 rule explained" — and Shortify writes a structured script, generates an AI voiceover with clear pacing, adds animated captions, and composites background visuals. The result is a polished explainer ready for any platform.
How It Works
- Enter your topic. A concept, product, or idea you want to explain in 60 seconds.
- Explainer mode is pre-selected. The script structure uses a hook-explain-conclude format.
- Customize visuals. Choose captions, background, and branding. Safe zones are automatic.
- Preview and export. Watch the explainer, then download a 9:16 MP4.
What Makes a Good Explainer
- Strong hook: The first 3 seconds determine whether viewers stay. Shortify opens with a question or surprising fact.
- Clear structure: Hook, explanation, takeaway — every script follows this pattern.
- On-screen captions: Reinforce key points visually for viewers watching on mute.
- Concise delivery: Every sentence earns its place. No filler.
