Frequently Asked Questions
Quick direct-answer guides about using this utility tool locally and securely.
What is the maximum duration for a YouTube Short?
YouTube Shorts must be 60 seconds or less. Our tool automatically trims and enforces this limit.
Can I adjust which part of the horizontal video is kept?
Yes, you can use the horizontal offset slider to choose the focal crop window (Left, Center, or Right) for the vertical output.
How does the blurred background mode work?
If you choose the Fit with Blurred Background mode, the landscape video is centered in a 9:16 frame, and the top/bottom margins are covered by a scaled, blurred mirror of the video.
Is there a watermark on exported Shorts?
No — all exported videos are completely watermark-free. KuberAgent never adds branding to your downloaded files.
Can I add text overlays to my Short?
Yes — use the Timeline Scheduler to add timed text layers with custom fonts, colors, and sizes directly on the canvas before exporting.
Does converting reduce video quality?
No — processing is done locally in your browser canvas. No server re-encoding happens, so your output quality is preserved from the original.
Is this a free CapCut alternative for Shorts?
Yes — KuberAgent's Shorts converter works in your browser with no app download, no watermark, and no signup — unlike CapCut which requires account creation.
