Keep it original
Kartoonz makes the video; reach and earnings depend on each platform.
Instagram, Facebook and YouTube favour original content: write a new idea for every post rather than reposting near-copies, and follow each platform's rules, including labels for AI-generated content.

Questions about the AI cartoon maker
Can one cartoon go to Reels, Facebook and Shorts?
Yes. Make it in portrait 9:16 and the same file works for Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels and YouTube Shorts. Each app sets its own length limit, so check it before you post a longer cartoon.
Which shapes can I choose?
Portrait 9:16, square 1:1 or landscape 16:9, all in 720p. Use 9:16 for Reels and Shorts and 1:1 for feed posts.
How long can a Reel cartoon be?
From 15 seconds up to 8 minutes. Most Reels are short, so 15 seconds or 1 minute are the usual picks.
Can I use my brand mascot?
Yes. Add your mascot from your uploads, generations or saved assets and it leads the story. Only use characters and logos you have the rights to.
How much does a Reel cost?
16 credits for 15 seconds on Lite, 189 credits for 1 minute on Pro, or 252 credits for 1 minute on Ultra. Captions are included.
Can I use them in ads or client work?
On a paid plan, you own what you create and can use it commercially. Content made on the free tier is for personal use only. Either way, you are responsible for what you publish, including the rights to any character or image you upload.
Will cartoons grow my account?
Kartoonz can't promise reach or followers. Platforms favour original posts, so a new idea in every Reel, with a character people recognise, gives you the best chance.
