2short.ai turns YouTube videos into shorts and meters minutes of analysis per month. Its pricing page does not mention posting, scheduling, an API or an MCP server; ClipEmber covers clipping through posting, with channel automation on Pro.

One credit is one run on a 1–20 minute window of a video, and every clip that run produces is included. A 20-minute window costs the same as a 2-minute one; a longer video is clipped one window at a time.
Point it at YouTube channels, including Creative Commons sources. It clips new uploads, writes the attribution line for CC-BY videos into the caption, and queues posts for your review or posts them on a schedule.
Write the caption and pick who can see it, and the clip goes straight to your TikTok profile. YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels publish at the time you set.
The hosted MCP server exposes 31 tools: create clips, review Autopilot's picks and manage the posting calendar from a chat, on any plan.
Click a word to cut it from the clip. Re-rendering after an edit does not use a credit.
