Uploading short‑form video

Category: Video

Short‑form video is built in. Upload a clip, write a caption (or let AI help), pick a cover, and schedule.

Specs

  • Formats: MP4 or MOV
  • Max length: 90 seconds
  • Max size: 100 MB
  • Orientation: vertical works best for Reels/Shorts/Stories

Per-platform length notes

  • Instagram Reels + Facebook Reels: up to 90 seconds (full cap usable)
  • TikTok, LinkedIn, Threads, X: longer than 90s is fine; capped here at 90s
  • Pinterest + YouTube Shorts: 60s max — clips between 61-90s will be skipped on those two platforms at publish time

Workflow 1) Go to Create → Short‑form Video. 2) Drag your video or choose from your files. 3) Enter a caption or click “AI caption” to generate one in your brand voice. 4) Select a cover frame (or upload a custom image). 5) Choose platforms and schedule.

Tips

  • Hook in the first 2 seconds: lead with motion or a bold statement.
  • Add on‑screen text for silent viewers.
  • Keep captions scannable; Draftovo’s AI writes 200–350 words by default. Trim for punch.

If your upload fails, check size/format and try again. Large files can take a minute to process before previews appear.
