Making a Top 5 used to mean a desktop editor and hours of work. With rankter you upload five clips, rank them, add a title and export — the numbered list and the reveal animation are handled for you, and everything runs locally so your footage never leaves your device.

The whole process takes a few minutes and no editing experience. Start by gathering five short clips that clearly belong in the same category, then decide the order — the weakest at #5, the best saved for #1. Write a caption for each so viewers understand the ranking, pick a bold title font, and export. The steps below walk through it, and the free studio is right underneath.

How to make a Top 5 ranking video

  1. Upload 2–10 short clips (MP4, MOV or WebM).
  2. Drag the cards to rank them, or hit Shuffle for a random order.
  3. Write a title and tap keywords to highlight them.
  4. Add a caption to each clip and tweak the fonts and colors.
  5. Click Export to download your finished vertical MP4.
