Automatically Create + Post Viral Podcast Clips

Automated Viral Podcast Clip Generator Workflow Overview This workflow automates the process of converting a long-form YouTube podcast into a series of short, viral-ready video clips for TikTok. The user initiates the process by providing a YouTube video URL and a link to a copyright-free background video (like game-play footage). The automation then handles every step: downloading the audio, transcribing it, using AI to identify the best moments, clipping the video and audio, editing the clips with animated captions and a background video, generating a viral title with AI, and finally, posting them to TikTok. Technologies Used - n8n: The core automation platform coordinating the entire process. - Form Trigger: To initiate the workflow with user-provided URLs. - AssemblyAI: Used for the initial, fast transcription of the entire podcast audio to identify potential highlights. - Google Gemini (AI): The core intelligence, used for two key tasks: 1. Analyzing the full podcast transcript to extract the most engaging and viral-worthy moments. 2. Generating compelling, attention-grabbing titles for each individual clip before posting. - OpenAI Whisper (AI): Used for a second, more detailed transcription of the individual clips to generate precise, word-level timestamps required for creating animated captions. - Custom APIs (Lemoled, Andynocode, Upload-Post): A suite of external services connected via HTTP Request nodes to handle specific tasks like downloading from YouTube, video clipping, advanced video editing (combining videos and adding captions), and multi-platform social media posting. - TikTok: The target social media platform for the generated content. AI Integration Artificial Intelligence is central to this workflow's value, acting as a "Content Strategist" and "Copywriter". 1. Intelligent Highlight Detection: The primary AI integration uses Google Gemini to analyze the entire podcast transcript from AssemblyAI. Instead of manually scrubbing through hours of content, the AI is prompted to identify segments with "high informational value, emotional impact, or key takeaways." It intelligently extracts the
