Automatically generate and publish AI-made YouTube Shorts

Turns an idea into a fully animated short video with sound, then uploads it to YouTube after you approve it in Telegram.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per each scene in the script; a person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Producing a YouTube Short means writing a script, creating visuals, animating scenes, adding sound, and then uploading and optimizing it for search, all before you can post one video. Doing this for every video you want to publish takes hours you'd rather spend elsewhere.

Who it fits

A YouTube creator or digital marketer who wants to publish Shorts consistently without editing each one by hand.

How it works

  1. The process starts when you run it for a new video idea
  2. AI writes a story script and breaks it into individual scenes
  3. Leonardo AI generates images for each scene, and Hailuo AI turns them into animated clips
  4. ElevenLabs creates custom sound effects and background audio to match the scenes
  5. You review the finished video in Telegram and approve it, then it's uploaded to YouTube with an optimized title, description, and tags
What you get

Shorts finished and ready to post

Your video idea turns into a fully animated short with sound, finished and ready for YouTube.

What you get

A finished, animated YouTube Short with sound, uploaded and ready to publish once you approve it.

What you need

Accounts with Leonardo AI, Hailuo AI, ElevenLabs, Shotstack, a YouTube channel, and a Telegram bot.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
