MrBeast has an army of researchers, editors, writers, and producers.One AI does the same for you.

Most creators carry that whole load alone. Backstage takes it, so you can do the part only you can.

— Your assistant

One assistant. Every job on your channel.

Researcher
Scans online for what's working in your space. Pulls references, drafts outlines. The blank-page problem, solved.
Scriptwriter
Turns an outline into a script you can read off a teleprompter — in your voice. Rewrite a section by just asking.
Video editor
Watches your raw recording. Cuts retakes, silences, and fillers. Adds punch-ins and a color grade. Live virtual playback.
Shorts producer
Picks the hooks. Ships 2–25 verticals per video — scored, captioned, reframed. You pick the keepers.
Designer
Designs thumbnails, channel art, and short cover frames. Iterates on direction, not just one-shot generations.
Community manager
Drafts your titles, descriptions, and community replies in your voice, from your archive. Never posts without your approval.
— A Thursday night

You wrap the recording at 11:47 pm.

Normally this is where the second jobstarts. Eight hours cutting. Two more on shorts. A round for the title and description. Another for community replies. You ship on Sunday if you're fast, Monday if you're honest.

With Backstage you drop the footage in, close the laptop, and go to bed.

By morning, the edit is done. The shorts are cut and captioned. The titles are drafted in your voice. The thumbnail is ready. The description is written. The comments you need to answer are filtered, with reply drafts waiting for you.

You spend Friday doing the part only you can do — reviewing, shipping, and planning the next one.

— A note from the founder

Built by a YouTuber.
For YouTubers.

Hi — I'm Selman. I run a YouTube channel with 255k subscribers and 12M+ views, and I started Backstage because my own channel needed it.

I've spent the last 6 years in the creator economy. I watched thousands of creators churn for the same reason: production work eats the time they need to actually create. So I started building the assistant I wished I had.

Every feature in Backstage lands on my own channel first — if it doesn't make my uploads better, it doesn't ship. I named it Backstage because that's where the real work happens; the camera just catches the last 1% of it.
