Publish Your Full Video Episode to YouTube

Send your entire episode to YouTube from PodcastAI, with familiar controls for captions, chapters, playlists and visibility.

PodcastAI’s YouTube publishing window showing a video’s title, description, preview, captions, chapters and audience settings.

Publish your full-length video episode directly to YouTube from PodcastAI. Your title and description are already filled in, and you can review the publishing settings before sending the entire episode to your channel.

Start with Your Episode

Open a video episode and choose Publish → Publish to YouTube. Connect your show’s YouTube channel if you haven’t already.

Your episode’s title and description are filled in for you, ready to review or adjust for YouTube. You can include captions made from the transcript and add your chapters to the description, using the work you’ve already done in PodcastAI.

YouTube audience, paid promotion and AI disclosure settings in PodcastAI

Familiar YouTube Settings

Review whether the video is made for kids, includes paid promotion or needs an AI disclosure. Open Show more for the additional controls you’d expect when preparing a YouTube video:

  • Tags and video language

  • Recording date and category

  • Standard YouTube or Creative Commons licensing

  • Embedding permissions

  • Publishing to the subscriptions feed and notifying subscribers

  • Showing how many viewers like the video

Save settings as show defaults to reduce repeated setup, then review the choices for each video before sending it.

Choose Your Audience and Playlist

Continue to Visibility and choose Private, Unlisted or Public. Select a playlist, check the destination channel and confirm with Push to YouTube when you’re ready.

YouTube publishing is independent of your podcast feed. You can publish the video to YouTube without releasing the episode through the feed, or use both destinations.

YouTube uploads carry no additional PodcastAI usage charge.
