TikTok Nodes
TikTok Nodes format and export video content optimized for TikTok. Connect your Scene Node output and AI-generated captions to create ready-to-publish TikTok videos with proper vertical formatting.
What is a TikTok Node?
The TikTok Node is the endpoint for your short-form video pipeline. It takes video and caption inputs and formats them according to TikTok’s requirements — vertical 9:16 format, short captions, and proper hashtag formatting.

Workflow Example
Automated Short-Form Content: Text Node (“Write a viral TikTok script about AI art, 15 seconds, energetic”) → Scene Node (9:16 vertical, 15s duration) → TikTok Node (with AI-generated caption and trending hashtags)
Tips & Best Practices
- Always use 9:16 vertical aspect ratio for TikTok videos
- Keep videos between 15-60 seconds for best engagement
- Short captions perform better — put the hook in the first line
- Use trending hashtags relevant to your content for discoverability
- Generate multiple video variations and pick the best one before exporting
- Pair with AI Voice for narrated content (voiceover videos perform well)
Troubleshooting
Video format rejected
Ensure the Scene Node is set to 9:16 aspect ratio. TikTok requires vertical video.
Caption too long
TikTok allows 2,200 characters including hashtags. Shorten your caption or reduce hashtags.
