ShortsSmith: Turn one idea into a finished, captioned AI short

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Nikhil, the maker. I kept seeing “AI video” tools that either spat out generic stock clips everyone else was using, or locked you into a monthly subscription before you’d made anything. So I built ShortsSmith. You give it one idea. It writes a hook‑first script, records an AI voiceover, generates original visuals for your specific script (nothing is stock), and burns in the single‑word captions that short‑form lives on — then hands you a finished 1080×1920 MP4. No watermark, full commercial rights. A few things I’m proud of: • 25 visual styles — cinematic, anime, 3D, claymation… plus on‑camera character hosts that narrate with lip‑sync. • No subscription. Credits in one‑off packs that never expire. • Free creator tools (idea generator, posting‑cost calculator, best‑time planner) with no signup. It’s early and I’d genuinely love your honest feedback — what would make you actually use it? 🙏
