One video project. Every platform's shape.
TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn short video, all from the same timeline editor project. Edit once, export every aspect ratio, schedule each channel's native drop time.
Three places YouTube fits into the rest of social.
Shorts + long-form scheduling
Schedule a Short and a long-form video in one queue. Refine TikTok, Reels and Shorts side-by-side in a single composer: per-platform captions, thumbnails and aspect ratios edited in one place. Series and playlist management for multi-episode campaigns.
Thumbnail + title versioning
Swap thumbnails and titles after publish without re-uploading. YouTube only accepts custom thumbnails on a verified channel. Test variants, measure which combination lifts click-through.
Cross-channel coordination
Align YouTube drops with Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn launches. One campaign calendar across every channel you publish to.
Approvals without logins
Drafts route to reviewers with comments and real-time notifications. Clients approve from a no-login link, and role-based permissions decide who edits and who signs off.
Plan by label and campaign
Label videos by type, theme or campaign, spot the gaps, and drag uploads around the calendar with a preview of each before it goes live.
One video, every format
Turn a long-form upload into Shorts, Reels and TikTok from the same project, editing per-platform details without re-uploading anything.
Plan video content like a campaign, not a queue.
Map uploads, Shorts and cross-posts on one planning board, so the channel's cadence is visible weeks ahead and nothing ships without its thumbnail and title ready.
- Campaign view across weeks, not just a list
- Thumbnails and titles reviewed before publish
- Shorts planned beside long-form uploads
