Scary story shorts maker
Vertical Shorts of creepy true stories and urban legends, on flickering film.
Fact video maker for Shorts
Fast Facts makes vertical videos of quick, surprising facts. A hook title opens, big captions carry every word, and bold print-style pictures change fast.
Start free, no card needed. You can change everything after you start.
Who it's for
Fact, trivia and science-in-a-minute channels posting short vertical videos.
What the video looks and sounds like
A risograph print look: two or three bold ink colors with grain. Captions are big and kept clear of the app's buttons, and more, shorter scenes keep it under a minute. An energetic voice reads over music and quick sound effects.

Fast Facts questions
How long should a fact Short be?
YouTube Shorts can run up to 3 minutes, but most fact Shorts are 30 to 60 seconds: one fact, explained, then out.
