What it does
Give it an idea and it produces the script, voiceover, visuals, captions and final 9:16 edit for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. You can use the hosted version in a browser or self-host it and bring your own AI providers, in which case you pay those providers directly. Personal use is free, but the project states that hosting it for clients or selling access requires a separate commercial licence. A bearer-key API is available for automating production from other tools.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.

YumCut FAQ
- Is YumCut free?
- YumCut itself is free, but it needs an API key for an external AI service. That service charges separately, though some have a free tier.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use YumCut?
- It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
- Does YumCut work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use YumCut commercially?
- The project does not state a clear licence, so commercial use cannot be confirmed here. Check the official page or ask the author before using it at work.
