Workflow

From topic to stored, publish-ready output

01
Step
Enter a topic
Write one sentence manually, prefill from product knowledge, or pull ranked ideas from content gaps for 2 credits.
02
Step
Generate the script
Citedy writes a short spoken script in seconds, already shaped for captions, avatar speech, and vertical pacing.
03
Step
Pick or randomize an avatar
Choose origin, age, profession, and backdrop — or keep Random on and reuse the best avatar later.
04
Step
Render the video
Generate a 5s, 10s, or 15s 9:16 short with synchronized speech, subtitles, and production progress.
05
Step
Publish and track it
Instagram can publish immediately, TikTok can private-publish after generation, and every run lands in history.
Capabilities

Feature page, not a tool pile: the essentials only

Content-gap topic suggestions
Use the same competitive gap data already inside Citedy to turn blank-page moments into ranked short ideas.
One-click browser pipeline
Script, avatar, render, publish intent, and history all run inside one dashboard flow instead of five separate tools.
Reusable avatar library
Keep visual consistency across runs by reusing generated avatars instead of regenerating from scratch every time.
Persistent generation history
Each run stores the topic, script, avatar configuration, video URL, publish results, and actual credits charged.
Partial refunds on failed steps
Charges stay granular. If a downstream step fails, the system refunds the unfinished portion instead of billing the whole run.
Agent-ready access
Use the dashboard directly or fold the same workflow into agent and IDE-driven content operations when you need volume.
Platforms

Current publish status, stated plainly

Instagram Reels
Live now
Eligible connected Instagram accounts can auto-publish as soon as the short finishes rendering.
TikTok
Private publish
TikTok Native accounts can publish explicitly after generation when you want a review step before the post goes live.
YouTube Shorts
Reconnecting
Shorts publishing is currently paused while the integration is being reconnected. Generation still works without it.
Use Cases

Best fit for teams that need repeatable short-form output

Content marketers
Turn blog topics into Reels without adding another editor, upload loop, or contractor to your weekly content process.
Solo SaaS founders
Ship short-form product commentary in minutes, keep the credit math visible, and avoid context-switching into separate tools.
Agencies
Run repeatable shorts production across tenants while keeping history, publish state, and charges visible per account.
Credits

Know the credit math before you click Generate

Script 1 · Avatar 3 · Publish 0

Video generation is the main variable. Publishing adds no credits, and the stored history shows the actual charge after any refunds. 1 credit costs $0.01 pay-as-you-go. Subscription plans lower the effective price per credit.
