Getting Started With Kajabi Creator Studio
Accessing the Dashboard
When I log into my live Kajabi account, I navigate to Creator Studio, which brings me straight to its own dedicated dashboard. This area is tailored with creators in mind and is designed to streamline content creation and repurposing.
The dashboard allows me to either upload a new video or select an existing video from one of my courses. It’s similar to setting up products or campaigns in Kajabi, with an easy setup wizard guiding each step.
Key options available:
- Upload a video: Great for repurposing longer content (over 1 minute) without background music.
- Select from courses: Quickly access and use videos I’ve already published.
- Transcription and clips: Create clips, transcripts, titles, and descriptions for each video.
- AI-powered outputs: Instantly generate blog posts, social media captions, transcripts, summaries, and more.
- Repurposing tools: Extract content for Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, email campaigns, sales pages, coaching summaries, and community posts.
I can preview and edit video highlights directly after transcription, making it easy to find and share key moments.

Content Creation Workflow
Starting a New Project
To start a new project in Kajabi Creator Studio, I go straight to the Creator Studio dashboard. From there, I click on Create a New Project. The platform gives me two main options:
- Upload a Video: For content I want to repurpose or transcribe
- Select from Existing Course Videos: Useful for videos already part of one of my courses
This gives me flexibility depending on which videos or content I want to work with.
Using the Setup Wizard
Once I've chosen to create a new project, the setup wizard guides me through the steps. The wizard automatically prompts me to select the type of content processing I want for the video, such as:
- Generating a video title or description
- Creating a transcript or subtitles (SRT/VTT)
- Repurposing for social media text (Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, X)
- Generating email templates: course announcements, discounts, coaching follow-ups
- Creating blog or community posts
- Producing course outlines, lesson titles, and descriptions
- Website, sales, or lead generation page copy
Note: Creator Studio works best with videos over 1 minute and without background music.
I find the AI suggestions helpful as a starting point. I always review the outputs before publishing or using them in my business.
Uploading and Selecting Videos
When uploading, I pick either a video file to upload, or select an existing video from my programs. The upload and transcription process can take some time depending on the video length. Once uploaded, I see the video in my list of projects.
For each video, I can:
- Generate descriptions for individual lessons
- Extract clips for sharing or repurposing
- Highlight key moments by clicking bullet points in the transcript table

Content Repurposing Features
Video Clips and Highlights
I can upload any video—either from my computer or from an existing course—into Creator Studio. The tool allows me to select and create custom video clips by clicking bullet points in the transcription.
- Best results come from videos over 1 minute and without background music.
- I preview, highlight, and generate edited video snippets for social platforms or courses.
Generating Titles and Descriptions
After uploading my video, Creator Studio automatically suggests video titles based on the transcript. It also generates clear, concise video descriptions suitable for course modules or YouTube uploads.
- I use these as starting points and then add my own tweaks.
- Here’s an example workflow:
Step |

Transcripts and Subtitles
Transcription is quick and straightforward. I just upload my video, and the Creator Studio gives me a full text transcript.
- I can export transcripts as text documents.
- Subtitle files (SRT or VTT) are available for easy upload to video players or platforms.
Social Media Content Generation
There’s a dedicated feature to generate text for Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, and X. I select a clip or section of my video, and Creator Studio creates tailored social media posts.
- I can use these as ready-to-post captions or tweak them to match my voice.
- The process only takes a few steps: upload video, select platform, copy the generated content.
Email Copy Creation
Creator Studio can produce several types of email copy based on my videos:
- New course emails
- Discount announcements
- Last chance to sign up emails
- Coaching call summaries
- Webinar and newsletter summaries
I simply select the email type I need, and it generates a draft copy. This saves me time when following up with clients, sharing updates, or summarizing coaching calls.
AI-Powered Productivity Tools
Coaching Call Summaries

Benefits:
- Automated transcription
- Efficient follow-up communication
- Newsletter and webinar summary options
Blog Post Generation
With just a video upload, I can turn my content into different blog post formats. The options include how-to blogs, listicles, and Q&A styles.

Examples of Community Posts:
- New course announcement
- Course discount notification
- Discussion questions
All I need to do is upload a relevant video or select an existing one from my course content.
Video Summaries
When I want different summary lengths, I select from short, medium, or long video summaries. The tool transcribes the video and provides a summary that I can use directly or edit as needed.
Options Available:
- Short summary
- Medium summary
- Long summary
This helps streamline the process of creating descriptions and outlines for my course videos.
Course and Website Integration
Course Outlines and Lesson Planning
When I use Creator Studio, I can generate comprehensive course outlines, lesson titles, and descriptions. The setup wizard lets me choose between uploading a video or using content that’s already in an existing course. This process uses AI-driven transcription and text generation to create materials such as:
- Course Titles
- Course Descriptions
- Lesson Titles
- Lesson Descriptions
I find it helpful as a starting point for organizing my modules. For instance, if I have a module about "Channel Foundations," I can get a tailored summary or description to place under each lesson.
Here’s a quick example format I follow:
Module Name |
Lesson Title |
Description Generated |
Channel Foundations |
Research & Keywords |
Summary provided by Creator Studio detailing lesson content. |
I always review the AI output before finalizing, ensuring everything maintains my intended tone and detail level.
Website and Sales Page Text
The Creator Studio simplifies the creation of website and sales page text. If I need copy for my sales page, I can upload a video sales letter file and get options for:
- Website Text
- Sales Page Text
- Lead Generation Page Text
This is particularly useful for quickly generating draft copy. The tool provides prompts and automates key parts of the writing process, while still allowing me to personalize the final result.
I make use of these options when building or updating my sales pages. Once I get the automated text, I review and edit as needed to align with my branding and messaging.
Best Practices and Tips

- Use the Correct Tool for Each Task: If I want titles, descriptions, or transcripts, I select the specific option. For social content, I pick social media text tailored for each platform.

Personalizing Generated Content
- Edit AI Outputs Before Publishing: I always review the AI-generated text—whether it's a title, description, or summary. It's a great starter, but adding my own insights gives it a more personal touch.
- Reflect My Brand Style: Instead of simply copying what Creator Studio suggests, I update the language to match my voice and the tone of my programs.
- Utilize Templates: When I download and use my sales page templates, I make sure to customize each section to align with my offer, ensuring consistency across my website and marketing.
Tip:
Use the AI output as a first draft or inspiration, then put your own spin on it for the final version.
