Best SendShort alternatives
On this page
The best SendShort alternative is ClipFlame. SendShort counts shorts: 20 a month on Starter. ClipFlame counts hours of video, so each long episode gives up to 20 clips, every one scored for virality, captioned word by word and ready to schedule to four platforms. Four one-hour episodes give up to 80 clips a month on the $19 Starter plan. Other options: Opus Clip, Vizard, Klap and Submagic.
SendShort covers long-to-short clipping, captions, faceless videos and scheduling. Its plans are built around a monthly count of shorts: 20 on Starter ($19 a month), 50 on Professional ($29) and unlimited on Business ($59), with about 20% off on yearly billing. If you want ten clips from every weekly episode, 20 shorts runs out in two weeks.
Disclosure: we make ClipFlame. Prices were checked on SendShort's pricing page and each other tool's site in October 2026.
