About Ayush

I'm Ayush Sharma, co-founder and CTO of QuickReel. I lead engineering and build the AI pipeline that turns long podcasts and videos into short-form clips: finding the moments worth clipping, reframing them for vertical, and adding captions that hold attention.

I started QuickReel in my second year at Delhi Technological University (DTU). We incorporated in December 2022, and I raised our venture funding at 21, while still at university. Today more than 380,000 creators, podcasters and brands use QuickReel.

On this blog I write about what we learn building QuickReel: how to turn long recordings into clips that grow an audience, what works on TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, and where AI editing helps and where it doesn't.
