Create Shorts
while you're still live.
Paste any YouTube live stream URL. shortube.pro downloads the last 10 minutes and turns them into ready-to-post Shorts — while the stream is still broadcasting.
Available in the dashboard under Create Shorts → Live Stream
How it works
Four steps from live URL to published Short.
Paste the live stream URL
Copy the URL of any YouTube live stream that's currently broadcasting and paste it into shortube.pro.
AI downloads the last 10 minutes
Our system downloads the most recent 10 minutes of the live stream — the freshest, most relevant segment.
Same AI pipeline processes it
Transcription, AI clip scoring, 9:16 reframe, animated captions and metadata generation — identical to regular videos.
Shorts ready in ~10 minutes
Get up to 10 clip candidates from the live stream while the event is still unfolding.
What gets clipped
We look at the final live segment, transcribe it, score the strongest discussion windows, and turn the best segments into vertical Shorts with captions and metadata.
Permission first
You should clip streams you own or have explicit permission to use. The tool is designed for creators, teams, and event owners who want a faster repurposing workflow.
Why the last 10 minutes
The last part of a live stream usually contains the freshest answers, audience Q&A, closing remarks, and the highest attention moments. That is where the best social clips usually live.
Built for teams
If multiple people handle a stream, the rendered Shorts and metadata are stored centrally so editors, social managers, and hosts can review them later.

Frequently asked questions
Does the stream need to be my own?
You should only process live streams you own or have explicit permission to clip. Processing third-party streams without permission may violate our Terms of Service and YouTube's policies.
What if the stream just started?
The feature downloads the last 10 minutes. If the stream has been live for less than 10 minutes, it downloads whatever is available.
Does it use the same credit as a regular video?
Yes — one live stream Shorts project consumes one video credit (or counts against your active pass).
How quickly are results ready?
Typically 8–12 minutes from when you submit the URL — faster than regular videos since we're processing a shorter clip.
Can I process the full recording after the stream ends?
Yes. Once the stream ends and YouTube makes the full recording available, you can process the full video through the regular Create Shorts workflow.
