For podcasters and speakers with a regular show · DE & EN

You record.
We serve the clips.

From your podcast or talk: finished vertical clips with checked captions — Shorts, Reels & TikToks. You send the file. We return MP4, SRT and caption text in 1–3 days. Start with a test clip from your own episode for 9 €.

Because you should taste the work on your material before you subscribe.

  • Reply within 24 h
  • Delivery in 1–3 days
  • 7-day money-back on the test clip
  • No minimum term
  • No passwords
You already did the hard part: the episode. The clips are the part that never quite gets done.

We know the feeling — a good hour of talk, and nothing on Shorts, Reels & TikToks to show for it. So we take the cutting, the captions and the checking off your desk. Quietly, every week.

— At your service, ShortsButler

The 3-step plan

How service works

Three steps. Two of them are ours.

  1. You send

    A link or file (Zoom, Riverside, OBS, MP4). You confirm rights in writing. We reply within 24 hours.

  2. We cut & check

    Hooks, 9:16 with speaker tracking, word captions, loudness. Two transcription models, then a human pass before anything leaves the kitchen.

  3. You post

    You receive MP4 + SRT + title and caption text. Upload takes about a minute — or add Posting Duty and we schedule for you.

Never your passwords. For posting, you connect your accounts yourself via the official Metricool login. We do not create accounts. We do not ask for logins.

Showreel

A taste of the cut

Seven finished clips, German and English. Tap to play — sound on, if you like.

Working samples from openly licensed 39C3 talks (media.ccc.de, CC BY 4.0; source credited in each clip). Auto-cut, captions checked. No affiliation with the speakers or the CCC. Client voices will appear here once the first hosts agree to be quoted — until then, none.

Packages

One tasting. Two monthly services.

Cancel monthly — no minimum term. Prices are final (§ 19 UStG).

Not for fake “fan” accounts, or clipping other people’s material without rights.

Test clip

The Tasting

One clip. Your episode. A proper trial.

9 €once

Delivery in 1–3 days

  • 1 clip, 20–45 s, 9:16, from your material
  • Word captions + SRT
  • Title and caption suggestion
  • Money back if it does not suit (guarantee)
Order The Tasting — 9 €

Because a single serving tells you more than a long sales page.

Recommended Starter

House Service

One weekly episode, quietly handled.

99 €/ month

12 clips · ≈ 8.25 € per clip

  • 12 clips per month (typically 3 from a weekly episode)
  • Captions DE or EN, checked
  • Caption texts + 1 revision per clip (when the fault is ours)
  • No minimum term

For comparison: clipping agencies list 300–500 $ a month for 20 clips (international) and 1,290–2,200 € for 12–16 clips (Germany). House Service: 99 € for 12 — no briefing marathon.

Start House Service — 99 € / month

Because most weekly shows need a steady tray, not a banquet.

Pro

Full Service

More clips. Hook variants. Still calm.

249 €/ month

30 clips per month

  • 30 clips per month
  • 2 hook variants on top moments
  • Priority handling
  • Monthly report of delivered clips
Start Full Service — 249 € / month

Because growth needs more plates on the table, not more nights in the edit bay.

Extras, if you wish

Tip: add Posting Duty (+59 € / month) and we handle the schedule too.

Channel Dressing

99 € once

Bio, avatar and story highlights for Instagram and TikTok, in your brand style. You open the accounts yourself (your identity, your phone number). We never create accounts.

Add Channel DressingFirst impressions should look intentional.

Posting Duty

+59 € / month

We plan and post at sensible times via Metricool (tool cost included). You connect accounts yourself with the official login link. We never see passwords. You can disconnect anytime.

Add Posting Duty (+59 €)Serving includes clearing the tray when asked.

The Annex

+179 € / month

Twenty extra clips plus posting on a clearly labelled official clip channel (e.g. “Your Name Clips”), linked to your main account. No pretend fan accounts.

Add The Annex (+179 €)An annex is still your house — labelled as such.

Prices are final. Kleinunternehmer under § 19 UStG — no VAT charged. Monthly extras require an active monthly service.

FAQ

Questions, anticipated

Ten honest answers. If yours is missing, ask — we reply within 24 hours.

How fast do you deliver?
We reply to enquiries within 24 hours. Clips arrive in 1–3 days after we have your material and rights confirmation — for the test clip, and per episode on monthly service. Full Service is handled with priority.
Can I cancel monthly?
Yes. House Service, Full Service and monthly extras cancel month to month. No minimum term.
What if I dislike a clip?
See Our quiet guarantee. The Tasting: full refund if you write within 7 days of delivery. Monthly service: one revision per clip when the fault is ours.
Do you post to my channels?
Only with Posting Duty (+59 € / month), via Metricool. You connect the accounts yourself. Without that extra, we deliver files only.
Why no fan accounts?
Paid “fan” accounts that pretend to be independent are covert advertising and break platform rules. An Annex channel is labelled as officially yours.
How is this different from Opus Clip and similar tools?
Self-serve tools leave selection, correction and export to you. We return checked files (DE/EN captions with a double pass) and, if you wish, we post. You send the material.
What rights do I need?
Before the first cut, you confirm in writing that you hold usage rights and any needed consent. Without that, we do not start.
Which languages?
German and English. Others on request.
May AI help?
Yes — and we say so. Every clip is checked by a person before delivery.
Do you need my passwords?
Never. Posting uses an official OAuth link you control. We do not log into your accounts.

Ready when you are.

One test clip from your own episode. Nine euros. Seven days to decide. If it does not suit, you get the money back.

Because the first clip should earn the next twelve.
