The Smartest Way to Reframe Video
Every feature in VidReframer is built around one goal: getting your video to every platform with zero extra effort.
AI That Tracks Every Subject, Every Frame
VidReframer's AI model processes video frame-by-frame, identifying primary subjects using face detection, pose estimation, and semantic segmentation. It doesn't just find faces; it identifies what you're filming: a person, a product, a vehicle, or a food dish.
The result is a crop window that moves intelligently with your subject throughout the entire video. Whether your subject walks across the frame, turns to the side, or moves closer to the camera, the AI adjusts the reframe continuously.
-
Face and body detection for talking-head content
-
Object detection for product and e-commerce videos
-
Motion prediction to anticipate subject movement
-
Keyframe-level manual override for edge cases
One Upload. Three Formats. Simultaneously.
Most editing tools process formats sequentially: export 9:16, wait, export 1:1, wait, export 4:5, wait. For a 10-minute video at 4K, that is 30+ minutes of rendering time before you can look at the results.
VidReframer renders all three formats simultaneously using parallel cloud GPU workers. A 10-minute 1080p video is fully processed across all formats in a few minutes. You get a ZIP with all three files, individually named and ready to upload directly to each platform.

9:16 for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts
-
1:1 for Instagram Feed and LinkedIn
-
4:5 for Pinterest and Facebook Feed

Custom aspect ratios on Service 3M and Service 12M plans
Batch Process Up to 50 Videos at Once
For agencies and high-volume creators, single-file processing is a bottleneck. VidReframer's Service 12M plan includes batch upload support for up to 50 videos per session. Select your files, choose your target formats and presets, and VidReframer queues and processes them across a distributed worker pool.
You can monitor batch progress in real time from your dashboard. Each job shows per-video status and you receive an email notification with a download link for the entire batch when it finishes.

Platform Presets Built Around Real Specs
Every platform has its own quirks: TikTok compresses heavily in the center of the frame, Instagram adds a bottom UI bar, YouTube Shorts has a safe zone for subscriber buttons. Our presets are calibrated for each platform, not just the aspect ratio.
Service 3M and Service 12M plans include the ability to save custom presets. If your brand always wants a specific safe zone, a particular output bitrate, or a standard caption bar at the bottom of every video, you can encode that into a named preset and apply it to any future upload with one click.
-
TikTok: 9:16, 1080x1920, with safe zone offsets
-
Instagram Reels: 9:16 with bottom UI padding
-
YouTube Shorts: 9:16 with end-screen safe zone
-
Custom presets with saved safe zones and padding
Keyframe-Level Manual Control
The AI is right most of the time. For the rest, you need fine-grained control. VidReframer includes an in-browser timeline editor where you can scrub through any video and drag the crop window to a new position at any point in time.
Changes create a keyframe at that timestamp. The AI interpolates smoothly between your manual keyframe and the next AI-determined crop point, so corrections blend naturally into the output rather than jumping abruptly.

Drag-to-reposition crop window on any frame
-
Smooth interpolation between manual keyframes
-
Bulk shift all AI crops in a direction
-
Export only the adjusted version, or re-run AI from scratch
Automate Everything with the REST API (Coming Soon)
We're building a REST API that will give you programmatic access to VidReframer: submit video jobs, poll for status, and retrieve download URLs from your own application or CI pipeline.
Zapier and Make integrations for no-code automation are also on the way. None of these are available yet; today, videos are uploaded and exported from the VidReframer web app.
-
REST API with JSON responses and webhook callbacks (coming soon)
-
Zapier and Make integrations (coming soon)
-
SDK clients for Node.js and Python (coming soon)
-
Postman collection and OpenAPI spec (coming soon)
