Sign in with Google or Kakao

There is no sign-up form. Click Start free, sign in with Google or Kakao, and your workspace is created on the spot. The free (beta) plan is applied automatically and we never ask for a card number.

On screen: Sign-in card → 카카오로 시작하기 (Kakao) / Google로 시작하기 (Google) — the dashboard UI is in Korean

If you get stuckThe ‘API key’ field is for developers — ignore it. Regular users only need the Google or Kakao button.

Connect one channel — Instagram, Threads, TikTok or YouTube

Connect just one account you want to post to. Click Connect account, the platform's official login window opens, and you tap Allow. We never see your password; only the access token the platform grants is stored, encrypted.

On screen: 계정 연결하기 (Connect account) → platform login → a 연결됨 (Connected) badge

If you get stuckInstagram only allows API publishing on a professional (business or creator) account. Switch in the Instagram app settings first, then connect. TikTok posts only to private accounts until TikTok's platform audit is complete.

Type one topic line — no script needed

Write one line about what the video should be about, like “How a solo café owner posts Reels every day”. ClipSquare writes the title, hook, body and closing. Pick a style: Free Shorts (₩0), Motion Graphics (drawn from your monthly generation budget) or Live-action AI (real moving people and scenes, drawn from your monthly live-action seconds — not on the free plan). Free Shorts is pre-selected for new accounts.

On screen: 오늘은 어떤 주제로 만들까요? (What should today's video be about?) → choose 무료 쇼츠 (Free Shorts), 모션그래픽 (Motion Graphics) or 실사 AI (Live-action AI) → 영상 만들기 (Make video)

Topics that workSpecific beats generic: “how a neighbourhood café turns Reels into regulars” works better than “marketing”. Want to write the script yourself? Open the collapsed box and enter the title, hook, body and closing — they are used as-is.

Generate — a few minutes later it appears in your gallery

One click runs the whole chain: script → scenes → narration → captions → render. You can close the tab while it works. When it is done the vertical video shows up in the dashboard gallery, with a caption and hashtags prepared for each platform.

On screen: In-progress indicator → new card in the gallery → play to preview

Free plan limitsThe free (beta) plan includes 3 brand films (live-action · motion) and 10 free Shorts a month. When the allowance is used up, generation stops automatically — there is never an overage charge.

Review & post — nothing goes out without your OK

Play the video in the gallery, read the caption and hashtags, then click Post. Publishing to the connected account starts right then. Not happy? Click Regenerate — until you post, nothing leaves ClipSquare.

On screen: 올리기 전에 확인해 주세요 (Review before posting) → 지금 올리기 (Post now) or 다시 만들기 (Regenerate)

Good to knowThe video, narration and captions are AI-generated, so we attach the AI-generated content disclosure each platform requires at publish time. After posting, performance such as views appears under the same card.

Daily on autopilot — set one schedule

Tired of making one every day? In the Schedule tab set a time and a topic once, e.g. every day at 08:00, topic “small business marketing”. A video is generated at that time and lands in your gallery; you just review and post. Generation is automatic, publishing never is.

On screen: 스케줄 (Schedule) tab → time (default: daily 08:00) + topic → 추가 (Add)

If you get stuckThe time field uses cron syntax: 0 8 * * * means every day at 08:00. Change only the hour: 0 20 * * * = every day at 20:00.

That is the whole setup. The rest is repetition.

Connect once, type one topic a day, and post with one click. If anything blocks you, write to support — a human replies.

Common questions

More answers are on the FAQ page. FAQ ↗

Is it really free?: Yes. The free (beta) plan has no time limit and no card on file. It covers 3 brand films and 10 free Shorts a month, and stops automatically when the allowance is used.
Do you store my account password?: No. We only keep the access token you grant on the platform's own login screen, encrypted. You can disconnect from the dashboard at any time.
The video came out wrong.: Click Regenerate to try the same topic again. A more specific topic, or writing the first line yourself in the script box, improves the result a lot.
Are paid plans auto-renewed?: No. A paid plan is a one-time pass for one month from the payment date, with no auto-renewal. When it ends you return to the free plan and nothing more is charged.
