The Engine turns your show footage into lyric videos and music videos.
The Engine is a web app for musicians. Upload your raw show footage and your songs with lyrics. It works out which song each piece of footage is, makes the videos, and posts them to your own YouTube, Instagram and TikTok accounts on the schedule you choose.

Short lyric videos
A section of your song that loops, cut from your show footage, with your lyrics on screen. Made for YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok.
Long-form music videos
A whole song, played from the record, with your show footage lip-synced to it. Straight cuts and no effects. Made for your YouTube channel and Instagram.
You see every post first.
Posts appear in your feed at least 24 hours before their time. Watch any of them, change a post's details, cancel the ones you don't want, or post one now. The rest go out automatically on the schedule you choose, to the accounts you connected. A YouTube channel gets them automatically only after you turn that on for the channel.
How The Engine uses your connected accounts
You sign in with each platform's own login and choose what to connect. Here is what The Engine reads and sends for each one, and why.
Reads: your channel title, so you can see which channel is connected, and the public statistics (views, likes, comments) of the videos The Engine posted, so you can see how they did in the Posted tab.
Sends: your videos, uploaded to your channel with the title, description and visibility you choose, when you use Post now or have turned on automatic posting for that channel.
Reads: your username and account ID, to show and post to the right account, and the insights (views, likes, comments, shares, saves) of the posts The Engine published, for the Posted tab.
Sends: your videos and captions, published to your professional account.
TikTok
Reads: your display name, so you can see which account is connected, and the counts (views, likes, comments, shares) of the videos The Engine published, for the Posted tab.
Sends: your videos, as drafts to your TikTok inbox for you to finish, or, if you turn drafts off, published directly but visible only to you until TikTok has audited The Engine.
Your tokens are stored encrypted, and you can disconnect an account in Settings. The Privacy Policy has the full detail, including how to delete your data.
