AI-based MVP Video Editing Tool

Freelancer Proposal: AI YouTube Shorts / Reels Editing Software Title (if platform allows) Build MVP: AI Tool That Turns Long Videos Into YouTube Shorts & Reels Proposal Message (copy & paste) Hi, I’m looking for a developer (or small team) to help me build an MVP AI video editing web app focused on YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok. The goal is a simple, niche-focused tool that allows creators to upload a long-form video and receive multiple short, vertical clips with captions. Core Features (MVP) Upload long video (or paste YouTube link) Automatic transcription AI-selected short clips (30–60s) Vertical formatting (9:16) Auto captions (burned in) Download finished clips Basic user accounts Simple usage limits (based on plan) Tech Expectations (flexible, open to suggestions) Use existing AI APIs / open-source models where possible FFmpeg or equivalent for video processing Web-based UI (simple, clean) Scalable enough for early paid users Stripe or similar for subscriptions (can be phase 2) I care more about working, reliable output than custom ML from scratch. Target Outcome Functional MVP suitable for paid beta users Built to support subscription pricing Clean handoff documentation Potential for ongoing work if the MVP performs well
