Generate YouTube SEO Content & Thumbnail from Video Scripts with GPT-4o & Runway

Who’s it for This template is ideal for YouTube video creators who spend a lot of time manually generating SEO assets like descriptions, tags, titles, keywords, and thumbnails. If you're looking to automate your YouTube SEO workflow, this is the perfect solution for you.

How it works / What it does Connect a Google Sheet to n8n and pull in the Hindi script (or any language). Use OpenAI to generate SEO content: Video description Tags Keywords Titles Thumbnail titles etc.

Use the generated description as input to create a thumbnail image using an image generation API. Store all outputs in the same Google Sheet in separate columns. Optionally, use tools like VidIQ or TubeBuddy to test the SEO strength of generated titles, tags, and keywords. 💡 Note: This example uses Runway’s image generation API, but you can plug in any other image-generation service of your choice.
