Create & Auto-Publish YouTube Content with Gemini AI, Face Thumbnails & Human Review

Description

This workflow transforms any video you drop into a Google Drive folder into a ready-to-publish YouTube upload. It analyzes the video with AI to craft 3 high-CTR title ideas, 3 long SEO-friendly descriptions (with timestamps), and 10–15 optimized tags. It then generates 4 thumbnail options using your face and lets you pick your favorite before auto-publishing to YouTube via Upload-Post.

YouTube Creators & Editors:** Ship videos with winning titles, thumbnails, and SEO in minutes.
Agencies & Media Teams:** Standardize output and speed across channels and clients.
