Set it once. Clips post themselves.

An AI agent that watches YouTube channels and auto-publishes the top clips for you.

LumiClip's automation agent watches up to ten YouTube channels of your choice, detects every new upload within the hour, runs each video through the AI clipping pipeline, brands the top 3 clips with your template, and stagger-schedules them to your connected TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn accounts — without you opening a tab.

The repurposing tax

Clipping every episode by hand is a part-time job.

If you repurpose podcasts, lectures, gameplay VODs, or interviews into short-form content, you already know the math. Every new upload is one to two hours of clipping, captioning, reframing, branding, scheduling, and copy-writing — per episode, per week, per channel you watch. Miss a week and the algorithm forgets you. Outsource it and you pay for a person plus the tooling.

LumiClip's automation agent removes the loop. You pick the YouTube channels worth clipping (yours, your guests', the ones you cover), pick a brand template once, connect the social accounts you publish to, and the agent does the rest: detect, clip, brand, stagger, post. You see a recap email when clips are scheduled and a full log of every video the agent processed.

Why creators run an automation agent

Three reasons hands-off repurposing wins

The agent is the only LumiClip surface where you don't need to upload, click, or approve to ship a clip.

Top 3 clips, stagger-scheduled — no burst posting

For each new upload the agent picks the three highest-scoring clips (same ranker the manual flow uses), then schedules them one hour after detection and every two hours after that per platform. No follower-blasting, no algorithm whiplash, no dawn-to-dusk timeline of identical posts.

Brand template baked in — every clip ships on-brand

The agent applies the brand template you picked once: captions preset, AI hook position and background, logo placement, music. Every export looks like you, not like every other auto-clipper. Update the template any time and the next clip uses it.

Detect within the hour — never miss a launch window

The watcher polls the YouTube Data API every two hours and detects new uploads as soon as YouTube indexes them. Most episodes are clipped, exported, and scheduled before they'd have shown up in a manual queue.

How it works

Four steps. The agent handles the rest.

Five minutes of setup; weeks of zero-touch publishing.

Pick the YouTube channels to watch
Add up to ten channels — your own, your guests', the creators you cover, the gameplay channels you re-cut. Paste a handle or a channel URL; the agent resolves it to a stable channel ID once and never re-checks.
Connect socials and pick a brand template
Connect the social accounts you want clips published to — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn. Pick one of your brand templates (or let the agent auto-create a Hormozi-style default) so every clip exports with consistent captions, hook, and logo.
The agent detects new uploads automatically
Every two hours the watcher polls each channel, dedupes against what it's already seen, and triggers the full clipping pipeline on anything new — within 5 to 240 minutes, not Shorts. You get an email when clips are scheduled.
Top 3 clips publish on a stagger
Highest-scoring clips export with the brand template, then schedule one hour after detection and every two hours after — across every connected account. You can switch to Drafts-only mode any time and publish manually from the Posts tab.

What the agent does

The hands-off repurposing pipeline, end to end

Every step from new upload to scheduled post is handled by the agent — no manual approval steps unless you switch on drafts mode.

YouTube Data API watcher

Polls every two hours, dedupes against an internal log so a video is never processed twice, and skips Shorts (under 5 minutes) plus anything over 4 hours. Live streams are deferred until YouTube re-indexes them as a normal VOD.

Top 3 clip ranking with brand template apply

Same highlight pipeline as the manual flow — the agent picks the three highest-scoring clips per upload and exports them with your captions preset, AI hook, logo, and music baked in. One template per workflow; swap any time.

Stagger-scheduled multi-platform posting

First clip is scheduled one hour after detection, then one every two hours per connected account. Posts go to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Threads via PostForMe with platform-correct captions, titles, and hashtags.

Drafts mode for manual review

Flip publish mode to Drafts and the agent still clips and brands, but skips the auto-publish step — clips land in the Posts tab as drafts so you can review the copy, swap thumbnails, or move the schedule before going live.

What you get

Set it once. Ship clips while you sleep.

The practical outcomes of running a clipping agent vs. clipping every episode by hand.

Manual clips per episode

Watching, scrubbing, picking, captioning, reframing, branding, scheduling, copy-writing — the agent does all of it. You see results in your email when posts are scheduled.

Top 3

Clips per upload, branded

The agent ships exactly three clips per video — the three highest-scoring moments — with your brand template baked in. No noise from low-quality picks padding your feed.

Every

Connected social, on a stagger

TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn — every connected account gets the clips on a 1 + 2 + 2 hour cadence, not a burst that the algorithm flags as spam.

Feature-by-feature

Everything the agent ships out of the box

The small details that decide whether automation feels reliable or feels like a black box.

Up to 10 watched channels per workflow

Mix your own channels, guests' channels, and creator channels you re-cut. Cap exists to keep API quota predictable; rarely a binding constraint.

5–240 minute video range

The agent skips Shorts (under 5 minutes — usually no quotable moment) and anything over 4 hours (multi-day VODs that need manual trimming first). Everything in between is fair game.

Per-workflow and per-user daily caps

Max 3 videos per workflow per day and 5 per user per day so a chatty channel can't drain your credit balance overnight. Caps reset on a rolling 24-hour window.

Auto-pause on low credits

Three consecutive skipped videos due to a low balance auto-pauses the workflow. You get an email; the agent stops polling until you top up and resume.

Auto-link brand template

On first save the agent picks your default brand template or auto-creates one with Hormozi-style captions and an AI hook. Switch any time from the Template tab; the next clip uses the new one.

Per-platform caption builder

YouTube gets a title and description with hashtags; TikTok, Instagram, Facebook get a single caption with hashtags inline. No platform sees the wrong field.

Recap email when clips are scheduled

One email per processed video with the title, the number of clips scheduled, and a link to the Automation tab. Override anything before it goes live.

Full processed-video log

Every detected upload, every skip reason, every scheduled post is logged on the Automation tab. Inspect why anything didn't ship without digging into a CRM.

YouTube automation agent FAQ

It watches the YouTube channels you pick, detects every new upload, runs the video through LumiClip's AI clipping pipeline, picks the three highest-scoring clips, exports them with your brand template baked in, and stagger-schedules them to your connected TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn accounts. You get a recap email when clips are scheduled.

The watcher polls the YouTube Data API every two hours. Most new uploads are detected on the next poll after YouTube indexes them — typically within the hour of going live. Low-engagement channels can take longer to be indexed by YouTube itself; that's outside the agent's control.

Up to ten channels per workflow. For each new upload the agent ships exactly three clips — the three highest-scoring moments per the same ranker the manual flow uses. Per-workflow (3 videos/day) and per-user (5 videos/day) caps keep the credit cost predictable.

Schedule mode (default) auto-publishes the top three clips on a stagger — one hour after detection, then every two hours per platform. Drafts mode does everything except publish — clips export with the brand template and land in the Posts tab as drafts so you can review captions, swap thumbnails, or move the schedule before going live.

Yes. Every workflow has one linked brand template — captions preset, AI hook style and position, logo placement, music. The agent auto-creates a Hormozi-style default the first time, or picks your existing default template if you already have one. Swap, edit, or create new templates any time from the Template tab; changes apply to the next clip.

The automation agent is part of the Pro plan. You need a connected social account and enough credits (100 credits/month minimum) for the watcher to actually fire — Pro plans include the volume you need for sustained channel watching.

Pause the workflow from the Pause button in the header at any time — the watcher stops scanning until you resume. You can also delete the workflow entirely from the Settings tab. The watcher only fires on uploads that land after you set up the workflow — it won't backfill your channel's history.
