Description

How it Works
This workflow uses VEO3 to generate surreal cinematic AI videos at a fraction of the cost compared to Google’s standard video generation APIs.
With it, you can automatically run a YouTube Shorts channel (and optionally Instagram uploads) that posts new AI videos every day completely automated.

Workflow Overview
Schedule Trigger
Runs automatically at your chosen times (e.g., twice per day).

AI Prompt Generator
Creates a detailed video idea based on your chosen niche.
You only need to adapt the system prompt to your theme (e.g., Travel Facts, Tech Visuals, Mini-Facts, Impossible Realities, Food Illusions).
Output includes:
Video Prompt (for VEO3 API)
Social Caption with hashtags
YouTube Title
YouTube Description

VEO3 Video Generation
Sends the prompt to KIE AI VEO3 (model: veo3_fast).
Produces 9:16 vertical short-form videos optimized for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels.
Significantly cheaper than Google’s Video AI while delivering cinematic quality.

Publishing
Uploads automatically to YouTube Shorts (with AI-generated titles, descriptions, tags).
In parallel, posts the same video to a Telegram channel (Instagram upload possible with a small modification).

Why Use This Workflow?
Cost Advantage:**
Google’s video generation is very expensive.
VEO3 costs are much lower, making it possible to publish multiple Shorts every day without breaking your budget.

Automated Channel Growth:**
Build a fully automated YouTube Shorts channel.
Post fresh videos daily → more reach, more chances to go viral.

Flexible Niches:**
Simply edit the system prompt to match your niche.
Examples:
Mini Facts Channel
Surreal Visual Loops
Tech Explainers in Visual Form
Food or Nature Illusions
The AI adapts automatically to your theme.

Cross-Platform:**
Out of the box: YouTube + Telegram.
With small adjustments: Instagram Reels, TikTok uploads possible.

Setup Steps
Get API Keys:
KIE AI VEO3 API key.
YouTube API credentials (OAuth2).
(Optional) Telegram Bot API or Instagram Graph API.

Configure Schedule:
Define how often you want new videos (e.g., 1–5 per day).

Adapt Prompts:
Change the AI Agent system prompt to your target niche.

Run & Scale:
Let the workflow run automatically.
Watch your channel fill with new daily Shorts.

Tips & Notes
With VEO3 you can experiment with higher volume since costs are predictable and far lower than Google.
Start with one niche channel → once it works, clone the workflow to build multiple parallel AI-driven channels.
Always respect YouTube/Instagram guidelines when posting automated content.
Adding background music layers or captions can further increase virality.

⚡ Summary:
With this template you can create an AI-powered YouTube Shorts machine that runs on autopilot.
Just choose your niche, adjust the prompt, and let VEO3 + n8n handle video creation, uploading, and scaling — cheaper, faster, and smarter than traditional Google Video AI.
