Step-by-Step Guide
Create your TikTok persona
Build an AI avatar that matches TikTok's vibe - relatable, authentic, and engaging. Choose someone who looks like they could be a real TikTok creator. Avoid overly polished or corporate looks.
Write TikTok-native scripts
TikTok has its own language. Start with a hook ('Wait, you guys have been doing WHAT?'), keep it conversational, and end with engagement ('Follow for more tips'). Scripts should be 15-60 seconds max.
Generate in vertical format
Create your video in 9:16 vertical format, optimized for TikTok's full-screen experience. The AI avatar will appear as if filming a selfie-style video.
Add TikTok elements
Download and add trending sounds, text overlays, and effects in TikTok or CapCut. The AI provides the talking head - you add the TikTok magic that makes it feel native to the platform.
