CapCut is a free video editing application powered by strong AI. AI features include: auto-caption, background removal, AI effects, script-to-video, and voice changer. Very popular for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
Record Raw Clips
Record short clips about the products or services that need to be promoted.
Use your phone to record 3-5 short clips of 5-10 seconds each, ensuring good lighting and stable images.
Record in a vertical 9:16 ratio from the start to avoid cropping later during editing.
Select a Suitable Template
Find a pre-made template with appropriate transition effects and rhythm for the content.
Open CapCut, go to the Template tab, search using keywords related to your industry (e.g., "restaurant", "fashion") and select a preferred template.
Choose templates that have high usage rates as they often come with trending music on TikTok.
Replace Clips in the Template with Your Own
Replace the sample clips in the template with your recorded clips.
Tap on each clip frame in the template, select "Replace", and choose the corresponding clip from your phone's library.
Trim the beginning of the clip if it shakes or doesn't fit the frame before inserting it into the template.
Add Automatic Subtitles
Use the automatic subtitle feature to increase viewer engagement.
Go to the Captions tab, select "Auto captions", allow CapCut to recognize speech and generate subtitles, then check for any spelling errors.
Choose a subtitle font that is large, clear, and contrasts with the video background for better readability on mobile devices.
Export the Video and Post Immediately
Export the video in high quality and post directly to TikTok.
Tap Export, select a resolution of 1080p or higher, then share directly to the TikTok app from the export screen.
Post during the peak hours when your target audience is most active to optimize initial views.

Pros
Cons
A local clothing brand store needs to post TikTok videos daily to maintain engagement with younger customers, but only has one employee handling content.
Problem
Editing videos using professional software on a computer takes 1-2 hours per video, preventing the employee from maintaining a consistent posting frequency.
Solution
Use CapCut on the phone with ready-made templates, automatic subtitles, and trending music to edit videos immediately after filming.
A restaurant chain with 4 branches needs the same promotional video for a new dish, but formatted differently for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
Problem
Manually adjusting the aspect ratio, length, and subtitle placement for each platform takes an additional 30-40 minutes for each video version.
Solution
Using CapCut to create a master version and quickly export multiple aspect ratios with auto-adjusted subtitles for each platform.
