How it works

How to use it in three steps

1

Paste your script

Or an outline with one line per part. Blank lines separate parts.

2

Add the video length

For example 8:30. Times are spread by how much you say in each part.

3

Paste into your description

YouTube turns the list into chapters on the progress bar.

Why Postlume is different

Chapters help viewers jump to the part they want and can show as key moments in Google. Postlume follows YouTube’s rules automatically: the first chapter at 0:00, at least three chapters, and each one at least 10 seconds long.

Tips

Tips for the best result

Check the times

Times are estimates. Check them against your final edit before publishing.

Short, clear names

Use 2 to 6 words that say what each part covers.

Use headings

Separate parts with blank lines or headings for the best split.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the chapters generator free?

Yes. The free chapters are always free with no sign-up. Digieh AI chapters, with better names and smarter splits, use 1 credit per run.

Why are my chapters not showing on YouTube?

YouTube needs the first timestamp at 0:00, at least 3 chapters and each one 10 seconds or longer. Postlume follows these rules.

Are the times exact?

They are estimates based on how much you say in each part, about 150 words per minute. Check them against your final video.

Can I use an outline instead of a full script?

Yes. Put one part per line or paragraph, and add the video length for better times.

Does Digieh save what I paste?

No. Digieh does not save your text.

Where do I paste the chapters?

In your YouTube video description, each chapter on its own line.
