Hello creators!

We’re excited to announce two big updates to our Title Generator—making it more powerful and personalized than ever before!

What’s New:

1. Reference Channels Feature (NEW):

Want AI to write titles like your favorite creators? Simply input their channels, and our AI will pull in the latest titles from those channels to inspire fresh, engaging titles for your videos.

Upgrade to PRO/BUSINESS to access this feature.

2. Enhanced Title Generation:

Our existing Title Generator has been upgraded! Previously, it only used your video’s current title and best practices. Now, it also pulls in your video’s description and the latest titles from your own channel to craft titles that truly reflect your unique style.

This enhancement is available to all users.

Why You’ll Love It:

- Personalized Inspiration: Get title suggestions that align with the style of your favorite creators while staying true to your own brand.

- Richer Data Sources: With access to your video’s description and your channel’s latest titles, the AI generates more relevant and tailored suggestions.

- Better Engagement: Create titles that resonate with your audience and drive higher performance.

Try out these updates today and see the difference for yourself. Upgrade to PRO/BUSINESS to unlock the full potential of the Reference Channels feature!

Happy creating!

Hey everyone! We just upgraded one of our features to give you even more flexibility—introducing "Auto-set Winner Variations"!

✨ What’s New?

We know the two-day waiting period while data settles might not always be ideal. Now, you have more control over how your winning variation is selected!

🔹 How It Works:

The "Winner Based on Metrics" feature still selects the best-performing variation once enough data is gathered.

But now, you can choose which variation will be used as your default during that waiting period!

🎯 Your Options:

✅ Pick an automatic winner while data is still gathering (like reverting to the original if enabled).

✅ Choose your final winner based on the metric that matters most to you once the test completes.

✅ Use both options! Get the best of both worlds with smart automation.

🚀 This update gives you more flexibility while ensuring your audience always sees the best-performing content.

Try it out and let us know what you think! 💡

Happy testing! 😊

PS: You can find both options under Advanced Options in Test Settings
