ShortGeek
Turn an article into a narrated short, offline
What it does
ShortGeek turns an article or an RSS feed into a narrated vertical short with burned in captions. Script, voice, captions and render all happen on your PC, so there is no per video credit and no watermark.
Turn a guide, an RSS feed or a topic into a narrated, captioned vertical short. Real screenshots rather than AI art, rendered on your own machine. Free, no watermark.
Point ShortGeek at one of your own articles, an RSS feed, any article URL, or just a one line idea. It drafts a script, narrates it, burns in word by word captions and renders a 1080×1920 MP4 ready to upload. The video is rendered on your own machine. Four ways in, an editable script, a voice, captions and a render. In that order, with you in charge at every step. Search your own site’s guides through the WordPress API, paste an RSS feed or any article URL, or skip the source entirely and draft from a one line idea. A hook, two to four beats and a call to action, condensed from the source. Nothing is invented: every claim comes from the text it was drawn from, and all of it is editable…from techygeekshome.info

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up.
