Shrinking.

Over two years, visits went from 3.6M in November 2024 to a high of 7.2M in May 2026, and stand at 4.5M in October 2026. Five sites take 93.3% of visits, so one ranking change at the top moves the whole line.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are down, so they agree.

“ai youtube shorts generator” is searched about 1,900 times a month worldwide, 25% of it in the US.

Google Trends barely registered “ai youtube shorts generator” until April 2023; interest then climbed to its peak in March 2026. Americans make 25% of the searches but only 7.1% of the visits, because the big sites also draw heavily from India, Brazil and Canada.

Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is lower than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.

Fewer visits than a year ago, fewer people searching by name, and the next six months look flat.

The fastest growers over the year, VideoGen, Agent Opus and invideo, grew fastest, mostly from a smaller base. The losers, led by AutoShorts.ai, lost most of their search visits (-86%).

Miles explains

Huge percentages like VideoGen’s +44% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect November 2026 to be about the same as October 2026, and the next six months to look flat.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months. November is usually a quieter month than average for searches, but the calendar did not improve the forecast, so it is left out.

Expected in November 2026

Read the range, not the single number: tested on the last 6 months, my method landed inside its range 3 times.

The most visited is invideo, with 2.7 million visits a month, 60% of all visits.

invideo and Agent Opus together hold 74% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 14 sites share 6.7%.

invideo alone has 60% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.
