About
AutoShorts.ai bills itself as a faceless video generator for TikTok and YouTube that runs a faceless channel on auto-pilot. You create a Series by picking a topic from a preset list or writing a custom prompt, and its AI makes a unique video for that series. Before a video posts you can preview it and edit the script, title, images or background music. You then set a posting schedule, connect your TikTok, YouTube or Instagram accounts, and AutoShorts creates and posts new videos for you. Its homepage shows visual styles such as AutoShorts, AutoShorts V2, Childrens Book, UGC Hook, Lego, Disney Toon, Expressionism, Minecraft, GTAV and Comic Book, and its guides describe making new short videos on a schedule, including Instagram Reels.

1 Series on every plan
Each AutoShorts plan lists 1 Series, a single recurring topic.
Yes, Storyblocks video B-roll on Pro
Limited
Reviewers report the images it makes are static, and motion credits are capped per plan.
Finished videos of 6 to 60 minutes
One brief becomes a widescreen 1080p YouTube video with research, script, voiceover, visuals, editing, music, captions and thumbnail. AutoShorts states no long-form video length.
$0.85 to $1.27 a finished minute on Mini + Low
Mini + Low builds a finished video from images and motion graphics, with all eight production steps included. AutoShorts states no video length, so its minute cannot be priced. Each of its videos is a short clip.
5 to 50 Brand Profiles, not one Series
Each Brand Profile holds one channel's voice, theme, compliance and style, so several channels run from one plan. Every AutoShorts plan lists 1 Series, a single recurring topic.
Licensed Storyblocks B-roll on Pro
Deep Video Pro matches licensed video B-roll to your narration. Mini uses images and motion graphics. Reviewers report AutoShorts images are static, and its motion credits are capped at 27, 62 or 124 a month.
A quote first, and a charge only on completion
The Quote Statement shows format, duration, model, voice and estimated credits before generation starts. Credits come off only when a video completes, so failed generations and blocked prompts cost nothing.
Fix a scene without regenerating the video
A timeline editor and Rush Agent chat edits (beta) handle the last stretch, and a re-render costs 10% of the original generation. Reviewers say fixing AutoShorts images uses up limited monthly credits.
Researched scripts, or your own
VidRush researches each script, takes your own script or voiceover, and can be trained on your channel's Script Style. Reviewers report AutoShorts scripts are weak and repetitive.
Pros
Creates and posts videos on a schedule you set, to connected TikTok, YouTube and Instagram accounts.
A Series starts from a preset topic list or your own custom prompt, and the first video is made right away.
You can preview each video and edit the script, title, images or background music before it posts.
Many visual styles, plus voice cloning, background music, HD resolution and no watermark on every plan.
Cons
Every plan, from Starter to Hardcore, includes 1 Series, so one recurring topic per plan.
Built for short-form: its guides describe short videos and Reels, and no long-form video length is stated.
Motion credits are capped at 27, 62 or 124 a month by plan, and reviewers report the images it makes are static.
Reviewers report the generated scripts are weak and repetitive, so they rework them in other tools.
Reviewers report the advertised trial video did not work and support told them to pay to test it.
Reviewers report it feels outdated and that its videos do not perform as well as they used to.

It helped me monetize a channel in 1 month.
“So far, the vidrush videos went viral much faster and more often than the ones my editors did. AND, I created those videos in 1-2 hours, with minimal input on my end. Maybe I changed 1 or 2 scenes. The videos turn out very good.”

From zero to 3 monetized channels in 5 months
“In that short time I managed to monetize three YouTube channels. That's something I never would have pulled off so fast with a traditional setup. What used to take my team roughly four days to coordinate, scripting, editing, voiceover, finding the right footage, I can now get done in under 30 minutes.”

“My editors have been in panic mode since I started using vidrush. It makes great videos in a few hours and also create thumbnail for it. The editing is better than 70% of my editors.”

Vidrush is for you if you want good quality videos fast
“Vidrush is great because it cuts video production time down by a lot. With a few prompts or even your own custom script, you can get a video done in around a couple hours, versus possibly days with a normal video editor.”

World-Class Tool, World-Class Support
“VidRush has become the backbone of my entire production workflow. The voice quality, imagery, and video output are genuinely impressive, everything comes out looking and sounding professional without the hours of manual editing other tools require.”

Saves a Huge Amount of Time and Delivers Real Quality
“I especially want to highlight the custom script feature, which lets you personalize content nicely, as well as the rendering quality, which is consistently solid.”

Waste of Money: Platform Fails to Deliver Basics
“All the images it makes for videos are just static, nothing dynamic. You constantly need to fix the generated images, but they give you limited credits each month for that.”

Free service doesn't work
“Free service doesn't work. You have to pay the full amount to test it. I emailed support, and they literally said you need to pay to test!”

feels a bit outdated
“feels a bit outdated, especially with so many new trends on tiktok. autoshorts videos just don’t perform as well as they used to. Still, it’s a pretty cool tool for automatically posting AI videos”

Good - But not Great
“The goods: You can create a series, then delete that series and remake a new series (for up to 10 times a day); with that being said, you can make more than 30 videos per month (as the market price of $39/month like competitors).”
