YouTube scheduler for Germany — plan Shorts and videos from one calendar

YouTube can schedule on its own — true, and we say so openly. The reason for Streampost is different: when your Short also runs on TikTok and Instagram on Monday, you do not want to open three studios in sequence, but one calendar holding all of it.

What you can schedule

  • Shorts

    Vertical 9:16, up to 3 minutes. The same clip usually runs as a Reel and a TikTok video too — upload once, distribute three times.

  • Long-form video

    Classic 16:9. Titles up to 100 characters, descriptions up to 5,000 — of which only about 157 are visible before the fold.

  • Thumbnail

    1280 × 720 pixels, at least 640 pixels wide. The thumbnail drives click-through more than the title — and can be scheduled rather than swapped afterwards.

What Streampost handles here

  • One calendar instead of three studios

    The real gain: your Short sits next to the Reel and the TikTok clip in the same calendar. You see at a glance what runs where this week.

  • Treat the description as search text

    YouTube is a search engine. The first lines of the description carry discoverability — the AI helps you write them instead of just "thanks for watching".

  • Control visibility

    Decide whether the video appears public, unlisted or private at the scheduled time — useful when a video should only become visible at campaign launch.

  • One price for every channel

    YouTube costs nothing extra in Streampost. Unlike tools that bill per channel, your price does not grow when you add it.

How it works

  1. 1

    Connect your YouTube channel

    Authorise via OAuth. Streampost requests only the rights needed to upload and schedule.

  2. 2

    Add video and metadata

    Upload the video, set title, description and thumbnail. For Shorts you use the same clip as for Reels and TikTok.

  3. 3

    Set the date

    Choose publication time and visibility — in the same calendar as your other channels.

For solo creators YouTube is rarely the only channel, but it is the most laborious one. A clip you film anyway runs as a Short, a Reel and a TikTok video. The effort is not in filming, it is in uploading three times with separate titles, descriptions and times.

That is exactly where Streampost helps: upload the clip once, let the AI adapt title and description per platform, and distribute publication across one calendar. That YouTube can schedule by itself stays true — it just does not help when the same week is also happening on three other channels.

On top of that comes the DACH framing: EU servers in Frankfurt, billing in euros with a proper invoice including VAT, interface and support in German.

Frequently asked questions

YouTube can schedule by itself — why use Streampost?

True, and for a YouTube-only channel that is enough. The benefit appears once the same clip runs as a Short, a Reel and a TikTok: then you schedule it once instead of three times and see every channel in one calendar.

Can I schedule Shorts and long-form videos?

Yes, both. Shorts are vertical 9:16 up to three minutes, long-form is classic 16:9 — the workflow is the same.

Can I schedule the thumbnail as well?

Yes, you add it when scheduling. 1280 × 720 pixels at a minimum width of 640 pixels is recommended.

How long can titles and descriptions be?

Titles up to 100 characters, descriptions up to 5,000. Only around 157 characters of the description are visible before the fold.

Can I control visibility?

Yes, you decide whether the video appears public, unlisted or private at the scheduled time.

Where are my videos stored?

On EU servers in Frankfurt until they are transferred to YouTube. Billing runs in euros with a German invoice.
