Switch it on once, then it runs by itself
You switch on the channel autopilot once — from then on processing starts by itself for every new video. A new video appears, the clips land in your next time slots.
How CastLoop works
You connect your source, the AI cuts, subtitles get burned in, and the autopilot distributes your clips to 13 platforms and brings the best ones back for 90 days.
What CastLoop takes off your plate
CastLoop automates the part that costs you the most time — without you losing control over your brand.
Clip recycling
Your clip is republished several times over up to 90 days — with rotating hook variants per platform. Available from the Growth plan.
Performance loop
AI learns from views and engagement which clips resonate with your audience. Available from the Growth plan.
GDPR & EU hosting
Hook phrases in six languages, EU hosting in Germany, GDPR-compliant.
Who CastLoop is built for
For everyone who regularly speaks on camera or into a microphone — and does not want to cut their content into pieces by hand.
Coaches & consultants
Your expertise lives in talks, interviews and explainer videos. CastLoop turns it into daily visibility across every channel while you work with your clients.
Creators & podcasters
Connect your channel, podcast feed, Twitch or Kick recordings once — every new episode gets cut, captioned and distributed. Audio-only episodes automatically become audiogram videos.
Agencies
You run several brands in one account, your team works with its own seats, and your clients approve posts through a link — without needing an account of their own.
Companies & teams
Webinars, talks and interviews become posts for every channel — including ready-made text drafts for LinkedIn. Hosted in Germany, GDPR-compliant.
What you can count on
Hosting, contracts, encryption and taxes — the things that usually hide in the fine print.
Servers in Germany
CastLoop runs on our own hardware in a German data center — not in someone else’s cloud. Your videos, clips and account data are hosted and stored there.
DPA included
If you use CastLoop for business, you need a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR. You can read ours on the DPA page; we send you a signed copy on request, a short email to info@castloop.de is enough.
13 platforms, no middleman
YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, X, Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr, Telegram and Vimeo — all through the platforms’ own official interfaces, with no third-party tool in between.
Access tokens encrypted
Your platform connections are stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and sign-in only ever happens through the platforms’ official login flows — we never see your password. On top of that, you can secure your CastLoop account with two-factor authentication.
Trying it costs nothing
One video and one post are completely free, without entering any payment details. After that, the subscription can be cancelled monthly at the end of the month — there is no minimum term.
Proper invoices
EU companies with a valid VAT ID pay net via reverse charge (§ 13b UStG); for everyone else, prices include 19% German VAT. Every invoice meets the requirements of § 14 UStG.
AI content labeled automatically
If a clip contains AI-generated scenes, CastLoop labels that on its own when publishing — through the platforms’ AI toggles, as a visible mark in the picture and as a signed marker in the video file, as the EU AI Act requires. You can check for yourself whether a file carries the marker on our verification page.
Transparent pricing
You start for free with 1 video and 1 post, without payment details. Your test clip carries a small CastLoop mark. Schnupper is a trial plan: 1 source, without 90-day recycling and the performance loop — both come with Growth and above. All prices include 19% VAT; for EU businesses with a VAT ID, reverse charge applies. You can cancel monthly at any time.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you want to know before starting.
Can I try CastLoop for free?
Yes. You start without entering any payment details, because your first video and your first post are completely free. Only after that do you choose a plan — no credit card required.
Do I need video editing skills?
No. CastLoop automatically detects the most exciting moments in your video, crops them to 9:16 and adds animated subtitles. You confirm with a click or let everything post automatically.
Which platforms are supported?
13 platforms are connected directly: YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, X, Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr, Telegram, Vimeo and Pinterest. On Pinterest you pick each Pin yourself, because Pinterest does not allow automatically triggered posts. For Instagram without a Facebook Page, you sign in directly with Instagram. You choose per clip where it gets posted — and on text-capable platforms CastLoop can additionally create pure text posts from your video.
What about data protection?
CastLoop runs on our own hardware in a German data center. Your videos, clips and account data are hosted and stored there and nowhere else — GDPR-compliant, with a data processing agreement (DPA) under Art. 28 GDPR. We send you a signed copy on request. Details in the privacy policy.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. All plans can be cancelled monthly to the end of the month. No minimum term, no hidden fees.
How secure are my social accounts?
Access tokens are stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM), never in plain text. All platform connections run through official OAuth flows — we never see your password.
Which languages does CastLoop work in?
CastLoop speaks six languages: German, English, Spanish, Italian, French and Dutch — full interface, hooks, subtitles and post texts. Hook phrases are natively optimized for each market.
What happens to my best-performing clips?
CastLoop automatically spots your winners — clips with above-average views. If you enable the AI upgrade for a channel, such a hit automatically gets a fresh AI animation before its next run, so it grabs attention again. The upgrade is optional, can be toggled per channel and uses credits from your balance — so you only pay for your real successes.
How does CastLoop handle the EU AI Act?
If a post contains AI-generated scenes, CastLoop labels it automatically when posting: via the official AI switches of YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X and Pinterest, and on other platforms with a note in the post text — plus a machine-readable marker in the video file. AI text drafts only go out after your approval. The transparency duties of the EU AI Act (Art. 50) are covered by design.
Do I absolutely need a YouTube channel?
No. CastLoop accepts five sources: your YouTube channel, your Twitch channel, your Kick channel, your podcast RSS feed or a direct file upload. Pure audio episodes automatically become an audiogram in your brand design — with waveform and animated subtitles. Depending on your plan, several source channels run side by side, for example YouTube, Twitch and Kick at the same time.
Does CastLoop also create pure text posts?
Yes. On request, every video yields three editable text drafts — for LinkedIn, X or Threads, for example. Eight platforms can receive pure text posts, schedulable like any clip and with proper AI labeling.
Can I post short videos without any cutting?
Yes. Source videos up to three minutes can go out unchanged as a Short or Reel — CastLoop handles subtitles, scheduling and publishing. Platforms with a shorter limit are excluded automatically.
How many clips does CastLoop make from one video?
The channel autopilot cuts up to three clips from every new video — one on Schnupper, two on Growth, three from Pro up. From the second clip on, a quality threshold applies, because one strong clip achieves more than three mediocre ones. Every clip counts toward your plan’s quota like a clip you create by hand; the video itself is billed once by length. The clips go out one after another in your time slots, not at the same time.
Can I connect several YouTube channels?
Yes, from one to unlimited depending on your plan. You assign social media accounts to each channel: YouTube Shorts, Instagram, TikTok and the other platforms, as many accounts per platform as your plan allows. The same account can be used in several channels, and clips only go to the accounts of their channel. Time slots and repeats apply to the whole workspace.
Can CastLoop post to my personal Facebook profile or a private Instagram account?
No, and that is not a CastLoop limitation, because Meta does not allow any app to publish to personal Facebook profiles or Facebook groups, and Instagram opens its API only to business and creator accounts. You need a Facebook Page and an Instagram account in professional mode. Both can be switched for free in a few minutes, and CastLoop guides you through the steps when connecting. For Instagram without a Facebook Page you sign in with Instagram directly.
Which formats can CastLoop publish on Facebook, Instagram and Threads?
On your Facebook Page as a Reel, a Story or a timeline video, plus text-only posts. On Instagram as a Reel or a Story. On Threads as a video or text post. You decide per post or per channel where a clip goes and pick a fallback rule in case a clip is too long for the first format. CastLoop respects Meta’s daily quotas per account automatically and moves surplus posts to the next free time slot.
What happens to short videos, portrait videos and landscape videos?
A video of up to 60 seconds stays a single clip covering its whole length, and CastLoop does not cut it into pieces. A portrait video of up to 3 minutes that already carries its own subtitles is taken over unchanged as one clip. For a landscape video CastLoop decides automatically by default. If the video shows text graphics such as headlines, name bars or a software interface, we fit the whole picture at full width on a blurred fill, otherwise the centre of the picture with the speaker fills the portrait frame. In the channel settings or on each clip you can choose cropping or fitting as a fixed setting instead. We detect subtitles that are already in the video and never burn in a second set on top.
