Please ensure your TikTok app is updated to the latest version to access this feature.

Overview

Prompter is a built-in plugin within the TikTok Shop video recording experience that displays AI generated selling points of the linked product directly on screen while recording a video. It addresses a common creator pain point - forgetting key talking points when recording videos, by eliminating the need for memorizing scripts or using external prompting tools. This feature streamlines the recording process, enhances content accuracy, and helps creators produce shoppable videos more efficiently and confidently.

Why use Prompter?

  1. On-screen Promps Without External Tools: The Prompter displays key selling points of the linked product directly on the filming screen, so creators can stay focused and confident without needing to memorize scripts or use external prompting tools.
  2. Increase Filming Efficiency: A streamlined workflow with fewer pauses and retakes leads to a faster, smoother recording process, which enables creators to manage multiple products, meet tight deadlines, and stay active to grow their audience and sales effectively.
  3. Boost Content Quality with Value-driven Product Insights: The AI generated selling points displayed in the prompter are based on the product details provided by sellers and high-performing product descriptions used by top-selling creators, which allow creators to confidently highlight key features and benefits that resonate with potential customers.
