Hi all! Have you tried uploading a longer or landscape format video to IG or Snap stories? Then you feel our pain. We got tired of videos being cut off and cropped awkwardly, so we created a super simple tool to fit or crop your videos to the exact right dimensions. Plus, you can send your newly edited video to Facebook Ads manager to run official ads with just one click. We build this tool for our personal use, but want to share it with the community. So it's free: no watermarks, no trials, just free!

Hope to see templates, UI elements like chat overlays, eye-catching transition effects (e.g. Supa.ru execution), as well as an opportunity to sync two & more landscape videos in one vertical on the go!

Pros:

As simple as it could be for instant (conceptual) value!

Cons:

UX could be better on a mobile device )

This is really cool. It would be nice to see a video exporting option. And as a feedback, instead of clicking position buttons one by one, moving video with the mouse by simply dragging will be a better experience.
Dmitry Dubovik
@ozgrozer good point! We've already formed a task for that. +1 on our backlog.

Just played around with this... I'm a video content creator for youtube... I will typically take a video that I make for youtube and create a teaser video for IG. A few things I'm loving about what you've done. 1. I can easily take a teaser clip i've made (typically landscape), and add a background color or the Blur effect.. which is awesome! 2. Its pretty easy to trim the video length A few things I'd love to see: 1. If my clip is over 15 seconds etc... have the ability to auto split it into multiple stories 2. Export option (would be fine if I export that it had a overlay created in Insense 3. Drag positioning of the clip vs the position function you have now. FYI was not able to connect to facebook authorization on chrome/macbookpro - popup window just hung and never loaded. Great little tool.

@unclejessy4real thank you, Clayton. Auto split and export are already on the list for the v2.0. Position dragging is a new one for us. Thanks for the insight! Please feel free to check out our core product - content creation and amplification platform for brands and creators like yourself: https://insense.pro/

Just tested out your new tool @dmitriy_dubovik and have a few suggestions - some are probably on your development plan: - the option to move the position of the video did not seem to work for me using the arrows - I was using FF as my browser so if you work best in Chrome perhaps put a notice to that effect - allow download to desktop and Dropbox - this could be used for Stories too and if you keep it as free and un-waternarked could get you a lot more visibility as a helpful desktop tool - if that is the case then allow multiple slices of the video - custom hex value for colours for the background - upload an image as a background - the ability to add animated gifs as overlays. I know you are working on text and captions which will be great from one of your comments below. Looking forward to seeing how you develop the tool.

It already saved my time this morning. Sometimes the most simple tools are truly the most useful
Dmitry Dubovik
@new_user_2f074baa02 Thank you, Denis. Enjoy and let us know if you have any feedback.

What's your pricing model?
Dmitry Dubovik
@alexvlv This is not our core product. Insense is a content creation and amplification platform. Video resizer is just an additional tool that we provide our clients with. So it's absolutely free. No watermarks, no trials, just free.
Vladimir Kusnezow
Damn son! Nice one!
Bulat Lambaev

I would recommend this tool to my clients.

Pros:

Simple, easy-to-use, direct import to facebook ads manager

Cons:

More templates

Vikroriia Korshunova
Sweet! Really simple and easy to use. I just didn't get the last part with integration with Facebook and Snapchat ads. What's that?
Dmitry Dubovik
@victoria_bykanova Good point. This is the feature that Insense current clients love the most. Since you've been rendering your video to fit the Instagram/Snapchat dimensions you can save your time and send it to your Ads manager with a push of a button. Simply create a new ad and add your video from the library - it's already there!
Єлизавета Кузьмінчук
The interface seems neat. What are you guys planning to add in the future?
Dmitry Dubovik
@new_user_3dbbae6239 Well, there are a number of features we are already working on. Here are the top 3 on our list: - adding/editing text - adding/editing subtitles (majority of Instagram users check their Instagram stories with sound turned off) - a range of templates to choose from
Basil Krylov
Hi, you have API?
Dmitry Dubovik
@new_user_5d0d9bc244 Not yet, but we are working on it.
Arseniy
Thank for the insight! How will you define what type of templates to add?
Dmitry Dubovik
@ostyre We are constantly working with creatives from our top video creators to define the patterns. It's not easy but we already have a set of guidelines that help the video ad to perform better. Personal experience and numbers will lie in the core of what type of templates we will add.
Mikhail Trofimov
Nice job, definitely a time-saver! Never thought I'll need a tool like that.
Dmitry Dubovik
@trof thank you!

Congrats and good luck!)
Danil Saliukov
@viktoriya_vinogradova Thanks! Great hearing from the market expert 😉
Daria Semonenko
Is there an app for this?
Dmitry Dubovik
@daria_semonenko Do you need one? 😉 If we'll see the need on the app with the same functionality we'll definitely create one.
