Free Tool
YouTube to TikTok Converter
Long-form on YouTube, short-form on TikTok — without the download-crop-reupload loop.
No credit card required
Features
One source, a week of TikToks
A typical long-form video yields around nine clips. Post them across several days instead of burning the whole video on one upload.
Cuts that start on the hook
Clips are trimmed to open on the line that earns the next three seconds, not on the run-up to it. TikTok punishes a slow start harder than any other feed.
Auto-post to TikTok
Connect the account once and clips publish straight from AutoClip, spaced out over the day rather than dumped in a batch. 9 destinations are supported in total.
Channel monitoring instead of manual submissions
Add a YouTube, Twitch, or Kick channel and new uploads get clipped automatically, usually within minutes of going live.
How It Works
Paste a YouTube URL
Any public video works as a source — podcasts, stream VODs, vlogs, interviews, lectures.
AutoClip cuts and formats for TikTok
The strongest moments come out at 9:16, captioned word by word, and trimmed to a length that fits the feed.
Post to TikTok
Publish straight to your account, schedule for later, or download the files and post by hand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal to repost YouTube content on TikTok?
AutoClip is a tool; the answer depends on what you post and where. Plenty of clippers work with permission from the creator or under a formal clipping arrangement, and transformative commentary sits differently than a straight re-upload. Check the source channel's stated policy and TikTok's rules before you build a whole account on someone else's footage.
How fast can I convert YouTube videos to TikTok clips?
About 10–15 minutes for a typical video, start to finished clips. Longer sources take proportionally longer — a three-hour podcast or a stream VOD is a bigger read than a 12-minute upload, and the time scales with it.
Can I auto-post converted clips to TikTok?
Yes. Connect your TikTok account and clips publish directly. Auto-posting is included from Starter ($19.99/mo) up, with 3 connected accounts on Starter, 8 on Pro, and 25 on Scale.
Does AutoClip reframe horizontal YouTube video to vertical?
Yes — 16:9 goes to 9:16 with the speaker kept centered as the shot moves, so the crop follows whoever is talking instead of sitting on a fixed center. For gaming footage there is a split layout that keeps the facecam and the gameplay both in frame. Pro and Scale also export 1:1, 16:9, and 4:5 from the same source.
How many TikTok clips can I get from one YouTube video?
Around nine from a typical video. Denser sources give more, thinner ones give fewer — that number moves with how much usable material is actually in the footage. Per-video caps are 6 on Starter, 12 on Pro, 15 on Scale.
Is there a free YouTube to TikTok converter?
The free tier gives you watermarked trial clips and 2 connected accounts, which is enough to see whether the cuts are any good. Auto-posting and watermark-free export start on Starter at $19.99/mo (200 credits, one credit per minute of source video).
