Uploading a single YouTube Short is simple. Uploading the 37th of the week, on three different channels, at precise times with the right titles and tags? That’s where creators quietly burn out and teams drown in tabs.A clear how-to process lets you standardize quality: right aspect ratio, snappy title, consistent CTAs. Handing that checklist to an AI computer agent means every Short goes live on schedule while you and your team stay where you’re most valuable—on ideas, storytelling, and offers—not hunting for the “Upload” button again.
There are two realities of uploading YouTube Shorts: the first is you, coffee in hand, posting a one-off clip. The second is you trying to publish a daily Short for a brand, an agency client, or your own business across multiple channels. The steps are the same—but the workload isn’t.
Sign in to YouTube Studio, click Create → Upload videos, pick your vertical file (under 60 seconds for classic Shorts), add title, description, thumbnail, and audience settings, then publish or schedule. Pros: Full control, easy for beginners, great for occasional posts.Cons: Slow for batches, repetitive, error‑prone when you’re juggling many channels.
Open the YouTube app, tap Create → Upload a video, choose a vertical clip, trim it, add music, captions, title, and visibility options, then publish.Pros: Fast on the go, perfect for reactive or behind‑the‑scenes content.Cons: Harder to keep consistent branding, annoying for teams who need approvals or UTM tracking.
You can standardize titles, descriptions, and hashtags in a doc or tool, then use YouTube’s scheduling or third‑party platforms to drip out Shorts.
Pros: Better consistency, less last‑minute chaos, some time savings.
Cons: Still requires a human to click through every upload, paste text, and double‑check settings.
Here’s where it gets interesting. You define a repeatable workflow once—where your video files live, how you want titles built, default tags, descriptions, and schedule rules. A Simular AI computer agent then:- Opens YouTube Studio in your browser- Uploads each Short from a folder or cloud drive- Fills in titles, descriptions, tags, and playlists from your templates or a CSV- Applies audience and visibility settings- Schedules or publishes according to your content calendar
Pros: Massive time savings, consistent execution, perfect for agencies and brands managing many Shorts. The agent runs in your real browser so you keep full transparency.
Cons: Requires an initial setup and testing phase; best suited once you have a clear content framework.In short: start manually to understand the craft. Once Shorts becomes a pipeline, let a Simular AI computer agent handle the clicking, so you can handle the storytelling.
A YouTube Short should be vertical or square, ideally 9:16 at 1080×1920, and under 60 seconds. You can upload clips up to 3 minutes, but classic Shorts discovery is optimized for snappier, sub‑60s content. Keep key visuals in the central safe area, use large text, and front‑load the hook in the first 1–2 seconds so viewers don’t swipe away.
Yes. Go to YouTube Studio, click **Create → Upload videos**, choose your vertical clip, then fill in title, description, thumbnail, playlist, and audience settings. Under **Visibility**, choose **Schedule** instead of **Public** and set your date and time. For high volume, you can let a Simular AI computer agent perform those same clicks and settings automatically based on your content calendar.
Create a simple titling framework, like: `Hook | Topic | Brand`. Store reusable pieces—CTAs, hashtags, and links—in a doc or spreadsheet. For manual uploads, just paste from your templates. With a Simular AI computer agent, you can map columns in that sheet to YouTube fields so the agent auto‑fills titles, descriptions, and tags every time, reducing typos and off‑brand copy.
Check three things: aspect ratio, length, and policy. Your video should be vertical or square, ideally 9:16, and generally under 60 seconds. Make sure it doesn’t violate YouTube policies and isn’t set to **Private**. You don’t need #Shorts, but it can help. An AI computer agent like Simular can enforce these rules on every upload so a mistaken setting doesn’t quietly tank distribution.
With Simular, the AI computer agent operates inside your real browser environment, just like a human assistant at your keyboard. You control the account, tabs, and permissions; the agent simply follows the workflow you define. Start with low‑risk tasks and test runs, then gradually allow it to handle full YouTube Shorts uploads and scheduling once you’re confident everything is running as intended.
