2short.ai is a fast, simple YouTube Shorts generator. But it only works if your video has captions, only supports YouTube, and offers no Telegram integration or viral scoring.

What 2short.ai users complain about
Only works with YouTube — no Twitch, no direct upload, no other platforms.
Requires YouTube auto-captions to exist. If a video has no captions, 2short.ai can't process it.
No viral score or clip quality reasoning — you get clips but no signal on which to post first.
No Telegram or messaging bot — must use the web app.
Editor is basic — limited caption styling, no effects or stickers.
No permanent storage — clips are session-based.

Honest verdict
2short.ai is fast and cheap for YouTube-only workflows. If every video you process is on YouTube and has auto-captions, it works. But the moment you need Twitch, direct uploads, viral scoring, or a Telegram-based workflow, it falls short. POMS handles all of those and adds a richer intelligence layer on top.
