Calculate the same outcome
One YASF AI deck costs six credits. A deck with your photos or stock images costs one. Credits from different tools are not equivalent units.
Choose how to publish
Both offer a free initial experience. YASF provides files you post yourself. Check current ShortGen plans if you need integrated publishing.
From product link to publishable files
Paste your product link into YASF and check the brief. Each generation produces one five-slide deck, 1080 × 1920 JPEGs and a posting caption in a ZIP. Download the files and publish them yourself. Language versions reuse the images and cost no extra credits.
A five-slide example
This is a fictional example. Adapt the wording to your actual offer and use real photos or screenshots when demonstrating the product.
Questions & answers
Do I need to connect my TikTok account?
No. YASF gives you files to publish yourself. It does not require access to your social accounts or automatically publish your posts.
Can I start without a subscription?
Yes. Your first original AI deck per product is free, with no card required. Register to download the full-resolution files. Afterwards, buy credits when you need them rather than committing to a subscription.
