Repost your YouTube Shorts automatically to TikTok and Instagram

New YouTube Shorts are automatically downloaded and reposted to TikTok and Instagram so you don't have to repost them by hand.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; all paths must finish before it continues.

The problem it solves

You post a Short to YouTube and then have to download it and re-upload the same clip to TikTok and Instagram by hand. Doing this for every video takes time you don't have, so a lot of your content only ever lives on one platform.

Who it fits

Content creators, agencies, and social media managers who post short-form video across multiple platforms.

How it works

  1. A new YouTube Short is published to your channel
  2. The system checks a spreadsheet to confirm it hasn't been repurposed already
  3. The video is downloaded automatically
  4. It's uploaded or scheduled to TikTok and Instagram
  5. The spreadsheet is updated and the downloaded file is removed
What you get

Shorts appearing on every platform automatically

Every new YouTube Short you publish automatically appears on TikTok and Instagram too, without you re-uploading anything.

What you get

Your YouTube Shorts automatically appearing on TikTok and Instagram, with a spreadsheet log of what's been posted.

What you need

A YouTube channel, a Blotato account for posting, and a Google account for Sheets.

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.
