What you can do

Upload once, set everything, walk away.

One video, fully set up

Title, description, privacy and thumbnail all live in the same post. No finishing touches in YouTube Studio at midnight.

Shorts, when the video fits

Schedule a short vertical video and YouTube treats it as a Short. There's no switch to flip; the video itself decides.

Your own thumbnail

Attach a custom thumbnail instead of whatever frame YouTube happens to pick.

More than one channel

If your Google account runs several channels, choose which ones to connect and schedule to each.

Same clip, other networks

Send the video to TikTok, Instagram or Facebook in the same post, with a separate caption for each.

Channel insights

Subscribers, views, likes and comments for each channel, over 7, 30 or 90 days.

How to connect

Connect your YouTube channel in a minute.

Sign in with Google, allow access and pick your channel. Your Google password never touches GoBrandIt.

Before you start, you'll need

A Google account with a YouTube channel

Admin access to your GoBrandIt workspace

A free slot on your plan (Free covers 3 accounts)

1

Open Social Accounts

In GoBrandIt, go to Social Accounts and click the "Add account" tile.

2

Choose "YouTube"

You're sent to Google to sign in. Approve the access on Google's consent screen.

3

Pick your channel

Back in GoBrandIt, the "Choose entity" screen lists your YouTube channels. Tick the ones to connect and click "Finish Connection".

4

Schedule your first video

Open the composer, select the channel, add one video, fill in the YouTube options and pick a time.

In the composer

What you choose when you post to YouTube.

These sit under "YouTube options" in the composer. The post text becomes your video description.

Title

The field reads "Video or short title". It's what people see in search and on your channel, so write it for them, not for the algorithm.

Video or short title

Description

Your post text goes in as the description, up to 5,000 characters. Links, chapters and credits all belong here.

5,000 characters

Privacy configuration

Go public on the day, keep it private, or publish unlisted and share the link with the people who need it.

Made for kids

Tick the checkbox when the video is made for children, so YouTube knows who it's for.

Custom thumbnail

Upload the image you want on the video instead of an auto-picked frame.

Every YouTube post carries exactly one video. Short and vertical becomes a Short; anything else is a regular video.

Good to know

A few YouTube details worth knowing.

Shorts aren't a setting

There's no Shorts toggle in GoBrandIt. Whether a video becomes a Short depends on the video itself: short and vertical.

No category picker

GoBrandIt doesn't set a video category. If yours matters, change it in YouTube Studio after the upload.

One video per post

Planning a series? Schedule each episode as its own post, or line them up in your queue.
