AutoShorts
Local-first desktop app that turns long videos into vertical short candidates
About
AutoShorts (1,302 stars, 244 forks, created June 22, 2026) is a Tauri 2 + React + Rust + SQLite desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux that turns long video or audio into 9:16 vertical clip candidates with AI viral-moment ranking and auto-crop.
Correction to social-media claims: it is NOT fully offline by default and NOT "no upload" in cloud mode, and its README warns small local models are NOT recommended for moment detection. No LICENSE file was seen in the repo root, so do not claim a specific licence.
Open the app, import a long video or audio file, let it rank viral moments, review the clip candidates, adjust the crop, and export 9:16 clips.
