TikTok’s New AI Tools Are Here to Save Creators Hours of Work
TikTok just launched two new AI tools, and if you’re tired of editing at 11PM or your idea needs just a little push into actual production, you’ll want to know about them. Smart Split automatically turns your long-form videos into TikTok-friendly clips; and AI Outline is your new creative assistant who can help you refine your ideas, write better captions, and structure your content.
Let’s break them down. 👇
Smart Split: Turn Your Long Videos Into Short Clips Automatically
The first tool introduced at the U.S. Creator Summit is Smart Split, a time-saver for anyone who works with longer video formats and wants to quickly repurpose them into TikToks.
If you’ve got a vlog, a podcast episode or just any longer video that you want to make TikTok-compatible, Smart Split takes your video, cuts it, adds captions, reframes it vertically, and breaks it down into short clips automatically.
Here’s what TikTok announced it does:
- Detects the best parts of your video
- Clips them into multiple short videos
- Adds transcription and captions
- Reframes for vertical video
- Lets you pick the clip length or go auto
Just upload a video over a minute long, choose the segment you want to use, and Smart Split takes care of the rest. Once you’re happy with the result, you can post it straight to TikTok.
Now available globally on TikTok Studio Web.
