From Shorts to long-form uploads, keep your publishing pipeline full and consistent with one planning workflow.
- Shorts and long-form, planned together. See the full mix on a single calendar so your channel never runs dry between big uploads.
- Cloud-integrated media library. Pull videos straight from your device, Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive without re-uploading.
- Bulk uploads with CSV. Map titles, descriptions, and video links in a spreadsheet, then schedule a month at a time.
- Drag-and-drop calendar. Reschedule with a drag, balance topics across the week, and spot gaps before they hit your queue.
Give every upload a strong start.
Use AI suggestions to sharpen hooks and descriptions before you hit publish. Set the category, visibility, and thumbnail, then schedule each upload for the time you pick, so every Short and long-form video goes out on time.
- AI-polished hooks and descriptions
- Category, visibility, license, and a custom thumbnail
- Auto-publish at the time you pick, or from your queue
- First-comment automation to seed engagement
Never run out of video ideas.
Stop staring at a blank doc between uploads. AI Studio turns a one-line brief into descriptions and hooks, and Ideas pitches fresh angles whenever your shot list runs dry. AI Assist in the Post Composer pitches in too, polishing copy and tone before you publish. AI Studio and AI Assist come with Pro and Business.
- AI Studio for video hooks and descriptions
- On-demand idea generation when inspiration runs dry
- AI assistance built into the Post Composer
- Title, description, and hook drafts in seconds

FAQs
Quick answers to the questions we get asked most. Can't find what you're looking for? Reach out to our support team and we'll get back to you promptly.
How do I connect my YouTube channel?
Go to Accounts, click Add Social Accounts and pick YouTube. Sign in with the Google account that owns or manages the channel. If the channel sits on a Brand Account, pick that one when Google asks.
Can I schedule YouTube Shorts?
Yes. Upload the short video as a Post or a Reel. PublishBuddy uploads it like any other video, and YouTube decides whether it shows as a Short.
Can I set the title, visibility and thumbnail?
Yes. Every video needs a title. You can also set the category, the license, a JPG or PNG thumbnail up to 2 MB, and whether it's Public, Unlisted or Private. YouTube may want your channel verified before it takes custom thumbnails.
Can I add tags?
There's no tags field. Put #hashtags in the description instead. The description is the text box, and it holds up to 5,000 characters.
Which YouTube analytics do I get?
Subscriber growth from the day you connect, your channel's total views, likes added up from your videos, and likes, comments and views on each video.
Can I post to more than one channel?
Yes. Connect each channel on its own. When Google asks which account to use, pick the account or Brand Account that has the other channel. Each channel counts as one social account.
