ShortSmash ⚒️

Prompt in. Finished short out.

ShortSmash is an AI video studio that takes one sentence — or today's trends — and ships a finished, captioned 9:16 short, then publishes it to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, Threads, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Facebook (profiles + Pages) through their official APIs. Script, voiceover, verified stock footage, karaoke captions, music ducking, trend harvesting, batch production, scheduling and comment-reply drafts, all in one CLI. And an MCP server, so AI agents can drive the whole factory.
