Free · No sign-up · Runs on your device
Post it everywhere from Claude or ChatGPT
Ghostedit posts your videos to Instagram, TikTok and YouTube when you ask your AI, and checks each one first.
How it works
- Get the video file. Your own Shorts: download them from YouTube Studio (Content, ⋯ next to the video, Download).
- Drop it in. The sound is read on your device. Nothing is uploaded.
- Press Get transcript. The first time, your browser downloads a speech model (about 80 MB) and keeps it, so the next ones are faster.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. It runs on your own device, so it costs nothing to run. No sign-up.
Is my video uploaded?
No. The video and the transcript stay in your browser.
Can I paste a link instead?
No. Downloading other people's videos from the apps breaks their rules, so this works on video files you have.
What languages work?
English works best. Many other languages work too.
How long can the video be?
Up to 10 minutes. Short videos take seconds once the model is loaded.
