Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Watermark removal

Instagram throttles reach on clips with a visible TikTok watermark. Short.now processes your upload clean so it competes fairly.

Fresh Reels captions

Re-generated word-by-word captions styled for Instagram — not TikTok's defaults — so the look matches your Reels feed.

Reels-ready format

Output is sized and cropped for Instagram's 9:16 Reels spec with captions inside the safe zone.

Batch conversion

Convert a week's worth of TikToks to Reels in one session instead of re-editing each one.
