YouTube Shorts Script Generator
Shorts leave no room for a slow start. Choose the Shorts format in ScriptEngine and you get a tight script built around a one-line hook, a single payoff and a quick ending, ready to voice and caption.
Start free with 300 creditsWho it's for
For creators growing through short-form: Shorts-first channels, long-form YouTubers cutting teasers, and anyone posting daily vertical videos.
Example uses
- A “3 facts you didn't know” Short with a text pop-up for each fact
- A 30-second teaser that points viewers to your full-length video
- A daily tip series with the same hook pattern every episode
How it works
- 1
Pick the Shorts format
Enter your idea and select Shorts so the script is sized for under a minute.
- 2
Generate script and voice
Create the script, then turn it into a natural AI voiceover with your chosen voice and speed.
- 3
Download captions
Pro plans export a matching .SRT subtitle file synced to the voiceover.
What you get
- Hook-first structure sized for short-form
- Same workflow for voiceover and thumbnails
- Uses far fewer credits than a long-form package
- On-screen text cues for fast captioned edits
Good to know
ScriptEngine creates the script, audio and captions; you assemble the vertical video in an editor such as CapCut.
Frequently asked questions
How many credits does a Short use?
Far fewer than a long-form package, because the script and voiceover are much shorter — which is why paid plans estimate 150+ Shorts a month on Pro Creator.
Does ScriptEngine make the vertical video?
No. It creates the script, voiceover and captions. You assemble the vertical video in an editor such as CapCut.
