# CrabCut

> Use this tool when you need to create engaging short clips from YouTube videos, especially for vertical video formats. CrabCut solves the problem of manually editing videos by automatically finding the best moments, adding subtitles, and providing download links. It takes a YouTube link as input and outputs a reframed, subtitled clip, making it ideal for social media sharing and content creation.
