# YouTube to LinkedIn Post

Turn a talk, interview or webinar on YouTube into a LinkedIn post written from what was said: a hook, a few short paragraphs and hashtags.

Paste a YouTube link and AI Writer writes a LinkedIn post from the video's transcript: a first line that hooks, a few short paragraphs in the first person, and hashtags on the last line, in a professional, casual, technical or conversational tone. Edit it, then post it on LinkedIn yourself; LinkedIn allows 3,000 characters a post. The Free plan includes 500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long; 720p video exports with a watermark. Credits are used by the tasks you run, rather than a fixed number of generations.

## How to turn a YouTube video into a LinkedIn post

1. Copy the video's link from YouTube and paste it into Exemplary AI with AI Writer chosen, or upload the recording.
2. Select LinkedIn post, and Key quotes if you want lines to quote. Pick a tone: professional, casual, technical or conversational.
3. Read the post. Select a sentence and Ask Emmy to Polish, Shorten or Expand it, or change its tone.
4. Copy the post and paste it into a new LinkedIn post, or download it from the Export menu.

## From a video people skip to a post people read

A talk, a podcast interview or a webinar holds the points your network would read, but few will watch 40 minutes to find them. The post is written from the transcript, so it says what was actually said, in the first person, with the strongest line first.

## A LinkedIn Post Written from the Video

Paste the link once; the post comes from everything said in the video.

### A hook on the first line

The post opens on its strongest line, the one that shows before LinkedIn's "see more".

### Written from what was said

Points and quotes come from the transcript, so the post matches the video.

### Your tone

Pick professional, casual, technical or conversational, and the post is written that way.

### Edit it with Ask Emmy

Select text and ask to polish, shorten, expand or change the tone, without starting over.

## Common questions

### How do I turn a YouTube video into a LinkedIn post?

Paste the video's link into Exemplary AI with AI Writer chosen and select LinkedIn post. When the video is transcribed, the post is written from it; edit it, then copy it into LinkedIn.

### How long can a LinkedIn post be?

LinkedIn allows 3,000 characters for a post. Longer pieces belong in a LinkedIn article.

### Can it post to LinkedIn for me?

No. Copy the post and paste it into LinkedIn; nothing is posted or scheduled for you.

### Can I get another version of the LinkedIn post?

Each run writes one post. Ask Emmy to rewrite it in another tone or from another angle, or run AI Writer again for a fresh one.

### What kind of videos make a good LinkedIn post?

Talks, interviews, panels, webinars and podcasts, where someone explains a point of view. A video with little speech gives the writer little to work with.

### Is YouTube to LinkedIn post free?

You can start on the Free plan: 500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long; 720p video exports with a watermark. Transcribing the video and writing the post both use credits.
