YouTube Video Description Generator
Generate a YouTube video description from a topic or video title.
Video Demo
A good YouTube video description boosts your YouTube SEO and draws viewers in. Use our YouTube video description generator to instantly come up with the perfect description for any video, whether it’s just an idea or you’ve already published it.
Your video’s description is an important ranking factor on YouTube. By including relevant keywords, you can boost your video’s visibility in both YouTube search and in search engines.
It’s not just about crafting SEO-optimized descriptions, though: engaging descriptions are a great way to draw in your target audience, encouraging them to watch your video rather than someone else’s.
Writing descriptions can be tricky and time-consuming: it’s no surprise that some creators only put a few words in their description box. But strong, SEO-friendly descriptions will make a big difference to how well your videos perform … and our free AI video description generator is here to help.
How to Use the AI YouTube Video Description Generator
The video description generator is easy to use: here’s what to do, step by step.
Step 1. Enter Your Video Topic, URL, or Transcript
First, you’ll need to give the title or topic of your video (if you haven’t yet created it) or the URL or transcript (if you want to create a description for an existing video).
Tip: The box may look small … but you can copy and paste a whole transcript into it.
Here, we’re using the URL for our video Stop Guessing What to Blog About! (AI Can Help).
Step 2. Select Whether to Include Timestamps
If you’re creating a description based on a title or topic, you won’t yet have timestamps. But if your description is for an existing YouTube video, or you have a transcript with timestamps, then RightBlogger’s AI can include timestamps within the description.
Just click to toggle this option on.
Step 3. Choose a Tone & Writing Style for the Description
RightBlogger’s AI can create content in multiple different styles. You can pick from 20 preset styles using the dropdown list, helping you to craft a video description that fits with your brand.
For instance, you might choose “Casual” for a laid-back vibe or “Professional” for a B2B audience.
Step 4. (Optional) Pick a Language for Your YouTube Video Description
If you’re creating video content for a non-English speaking audience, or if you have a multilingual YouTube channel, go ahead and select from the 100+ language options here.
Tip: You can use the search bar within the dropdown to avoid scrolling!
Once you’ve selected the options you want, go ahead and generate your YouTube video description:
You can then copy your description and paste it into YouTube studio.
Bonus: Use My Free YouTube SEO Checklist Along With This Tool
Nailing your description is just one part of good video SEO. There are several other factors that help your content do well in YouTube’s search ranking.
Here’s my personal YouTube SEO checklist you can use:
- Use the keyword research tool or the “search suggest” in YouTube to find out what topics people are searching for in your niche
- Pick a suitable YouTube keyword to use in your video’s title (important!)
- Also include that keyword within your video’s description
- Take a look at trending videos in your niche and try using the same tags and hashtags
- Use your most important tags first (the tag box limits you to 500 characters)
- Always encourage views to like, subscribe, and/or share: these actions signal to YouTube that your video is popular
- Make sure your thumbnail and title stand out so they’ll get clicks: YouTube’s search algorithms take into account your clickthrough rate
- While recording, say your keyword at least once (so it appears in your transcript)
How Does the YouTube Video Description Generator Work?
The description generator should provide a high-quality description for any video (or video idea). But to get the most from the tool, let’s take a closer look at all its features, including the advanced options.
1. Video Topic / YouTube Video URL / Transcript (Suitable for Non-YouTube Videos Too!)
The video description tool is as versatile as possible, making it suitable for a range of use cases.
While it usually makes the most sense to generate a description for an existing video, you can also use it to craft a description for a video idea. This could be a great way to start thinking about what to include in your video (you could also use the YouTube Video Outline tool).
Let’s say you wanted to create a video on “How to Sleep Better Tonight”. You could enter that topic, generate a description, then use that to inspire the content of your video.
2. Include Timestamps? (Add a List of Key Points With Timestamps)
If your video is more than a few minutes long, it’s a good idea to include timestamps within your description.
This lets potential viewers see exactly what they’ll be learning from your video—and if you add timestamp links, viewers will be able to jump to the exact part of your video that they’re most interested in.
Tip: The YouTube video generator needs either a YouTube URL or a transcript with timestamps in order to include timestamps accurately in your description.
3. Tone & Writing Style (Craft a Description That Matches Your Brand)
Truly compelling descriptions will fit with your brand’s tone and style, so that viewers already have a good sense of what to expect before they start watching.
If you’re on the Unlimited plan for RightBlogger, you can create custom MyTones to use in the video description generator (and with all our other generative AI tools). This lets you tailor your content creation precisely to your own style.
You can create a MyTone based on written content or on a video. So if you’ve already got a video up on YouTube, just use that as the basis for your description’s style.
We created a MyTone based on this RightBlogger video:
This MyTone was instantly available to select from the Tone & Writing Style dropdown:
4. Language (Choose From 100+ Languages)
RightBlogger defaults to creating your video description in English (US) … but you can pick from more than 100 other languages. This makes it really easy to craft comprehensive descriptions in a range of languages for a multilingual audience.
As well as having different languages to choose from, you can select other varieties of English: UK, Canada, and Australia. That way, the spellings and terms used in your description will be a great fit for a local audience.
5. Keywords to Include (SEO-Optimize Your Description)
The video description maker includes a number of advanced features to help you craft a great description.
To open up the advanced features, click on the “Keywords to Include & Point of View & More” link.
Then, type in any keyword(s) you want your description to include. For the best optimized video descriptions, we recommend including at least your primary keyword, and ideally 2–3 secondary keywords as well. Just separate your keywords with commas.
6. Point of View (You, I, We, or They?)
Do you want your description written to “you”, the potential viewer, or with more of an “I” focus, based on your own experience? The AI can automatically select a point of view based on your title, topic, or full video … but if you want something specific, just choose it from the dropdown.
7. Target Audience (Who’s Your Video Aimed At?)
Who is your target audience? Your video description will resonate better with them if it’s written with them in mind.
Go ahead and give the AI any details about your audience, whether that’s demographics (e.g. “men in their 50s”) or something more descriptive (e.g. “people who have anxiety and who find it hard to drop off to sleep”).
Your generated description will address the specific needs or concerns of your audience:
Struggling to fall asleep? This video breaks down simple, effective tips to help you sleep better tonight. Whether stress, anxiety, or restless nights are keeping you up, these practical ways to sleep better can make a big difference. Learn how small changes to your bedtime routine and environment can improve your sleep quality starting now. Watch to discover actionable advice tailored to help you relax and get the rest you deserve.
8. Additional Instructions (Any Special Requests?)
If you want your description written in a particular way, just add instructions in the Additional Instructions box. For instance, you might want to use a specific call-to-action, structure your description to match others you’ve created, or include emojis.
Tip: You could also include additional information about your video here (such as the outline), if you’re just giving a topic/title.
We asked the AI to “include emojis in the description” and it did so:
9. Creativity
The RightBlogger AI is automatically set to a “just right” level of creativity, so that your descriptions aren’t too blandly predictable or wildly outlandish! But if you want to experiment with the level of creativity, go ahead and move the Creativity slider.
YouTube Video Description Generator FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Got questions about the YouTube video description generator or about writing descriptions? Here’s what you need to know.
Can I Use AI YouTube Description Generator for a Channel Description?
This YouTube video description tool is designed for individual videos, not your whole channel.
How Should I Structure a YouTube Video Description?
It’s up to you how to structure your video description, but it’s a good idea to keep in mind the beginning, middle, and end principle of creating content. An easy way to do this is with:
- A short paragraph to introduce your video
- A main body of your description going through timestamps and key points
- A conclusion with a clear call to action (e.g. to watch or like the video)
You might also want to include links to related videos and/or to your other social media accounts.
What Can’t I Write in My YouTube Video Description?
Avoid keyword-stuffing in your YouTube video description. Use hashtags (a hashtag generator can help you come up with them) … but don’t include irrelevant or spammy-looking hashtags.
Don’t include any content that might get your video removed by YouTube. For instance, it’s generally best to avoid swear words unless there’s a good reason to use them.
What Should I Put in the Description About Copyright or Fair Use?
Some YouTubers include a copyright disclaimer in their description, if their video draws on copyrighted material.
For instance, if you’ve created an educational video that uses a short excerpt from a novel that’s protected by copyright, that might be considered “fair use”.
You don’t need to put a copyright notice on your own material, though some people prefer to do so.
You can find more information about fair use here and some examples of copyright disclaimers here.
How Does the Video Description Affect YouTube SEO?
Your video description isn’t as crucial as your video title for SEO, but it’s still important. Including keywords in your description helps YouTube to know what your video is about.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free trial available?
If you create a free account you can try our tools with limited usage and options. If you do decide to subscribe and don't love our tools we offer a no questions asked 30-day money back guarantee. Come join the 27,328+ bloggers using RightBlogger and if you're not absolutely thrilled, you can cancel & get a refund without any hassle.
Are generated articles plagiarism free?
Now this is a debate for our ages. Is AI content plagiarism? The short answer is no, because no original work is being directly copied.
That said, there's still an ongoing public debate over whether AI-generated content should be considered plagiarism. Some argue that because the content is not created directly by a human, it can't be considered original content—and therefore must be plagiarized. On the other side of the aisle, many argue that since AI algorithms are designed to create unique content, it's not technically plagiarism.
Here's where we stand: We don't feel AI-generated content constitutes plagiarism, because no original work itself is being copied. The language processing models that power these tools are gathering incomprehensible amounts of information from across the Internet, to uniquely write the content you get when you generate content with tools like RightBlogger. AI writers don't copy any specific sources, they're always learning and uniquely explaining a topic each and every time you use one.
That said, we do believe it's important for bloggers and content creators to use these AI tools responsibly. Always be transparent and ethical in your use of AI tools.
What can AI tools realistically do for me?
AI isn't here to replace you, and honestly, it can't. Powerful AI tools like the 80+ inside RightBlogger are designed to give you a great starting point to all of your content creation needs.
Think of using AI as outsourcing your first drafts. You wouldn't want to publish AI content sight-unseen, just like you wouldn't hire a writer and publish their work without proofreading it, fact-checking, weaving in your own voice, examples, stories, and experiences. Make no mistake, these tools are incredibly helpful at speeding up your content creation workflows, but it's smart to think of them as an assistant that creates great first drafts for you... but in a matter of seconds.
Is there really no usage limit with RightBlogger?
It means exactly that. Unlimited use. Once you subscribe to RightBlogger, you'll be able to use all of the 80+ tools inside the platform without any usage limits. Planning to publish 100 articles this month? Go nuts. Want to generate 50 title options for that landing page? Be our guest. The only circumstance where you could land on the dark side, is if you're clearly abusing the platform for other than its intended purposes.
How do refunds and cancellations work?
Anytime you want to cancel, you can do so yourself by going to Account > Manage Subscription and clicking the option to end your subscription anytime. You won't be billed again. If you're having trouble figuring out how to cancel, just hit us up at contact@rightblogger.com and we'll help you out.
We're super flexible when it comes to refunds. If you join RightBlogger, take a look, try out the tools and decide they're not for you—no worries, we have a no questions asked 30-day refund policy. Once you've used RightBlogger for a full 30 days, you'll still be able to cancel your subscription anytime, ceasing all future payments.
Which AI models power RightBlogger?
At RightBlogger we currently use OpenAI's GPT-4o models along with Anthropic's Claude 3 models to power our AI tools. By using a mix of models, we're able to use them where they shine the most. We're constantly updating our tools to use the latest AI models, so you can be sure you're getting the best content possible. Not satisfied with a tool's output? Let us know by contacting us.
Does RightBlogger work with popular blogging platforms?
Yes! RightBlogger has integrations for posting directly to WordPress, Webflow and Ghost. RightBlogger is also compatible with any blogging platform that allows you to copy and paste content. That includes WordPress, Squarespace, Medium, Ghost, and more. You can also use RightBlogger to generate content for your social media posts, email newsletters, and more.
Can AI-generated content be detected by tools?
OpenAI has stated very clearly that AI detection tools don't work.
Here's a really important read from Google on using AI tools to create content. TL;DR they don't care if you use AI in your content creation process, as long as the content is high quality. What defines high quality is where you come in as the Certified Human™ at the controls of tools like RightBlogger. With our tool, you'll get a fantastic first draft article, and then it's over to you for editing, fact checking, weaving in your own story, voice, tone, style, examples, real life experiences and to inject your heart & soul into the content. Our humanity is our new superpower in a world of AI tools helping assist with content creation.
So in short, you have nothing to worry about when it comes to AI content detection as long as you're happy with the finished product (once you've put your touches on the article, of course) and it checks your personal box for high quality :) does that make sense? Here's Ryan's guide on how to think about using tools like RightBlogger in your content process—including the actual step-by-step process clearly outlined.
Do you have an affiliate program?
Yes! You can join our affiliate program to earn commissions by referring new customers to RightBlogger.
