Turn your talking-head video into a Tier List

A Tier List video ranks things into tiers while you explain each verdict on camera. Jupitrr is a tier list video maker that starts from your own recording: it reads what you rank and how you rate it, builds the board on top of your video, and leaves every tier, color, image and layout editable.

How to make a Tier List video

You bring the opinions. The format brings the board. Everything it fills in stays editable.

  1. Step 1

    Upload the video where you rank things

    Record yourself talking through your ranking, upload it, and choose Tier List as the format in "Set up your video". You can also switch to it later from the Formats tab in the editor.

  2. Step 2

    Jupitrr builds the board from your words

    It reads your transcript to find each item you rank, the tier you give it and the moment you say it. Tier names come from your own wording, so "top tier" and "waste of time" work as well as S to D. Your topic becomes the hook at the top.

  3. Step 3

    Adjust the board, then export

    Rename or recolor tiers, move items, add pictures, choose Overlay or Split, and turn the reveal animation on or off. Not happy with the read? Re-detect from the transcript or add items at the playhead yourself.

Make a Tier List video

Ready-made structure, fully customizable

The Tier List format gives you a working board straight away. Every part of it can still be changed.

Your tiers, your words

Start from S, A, B, C and D or from the verdicts you actually said. Rename any tier, and keep between two and six.

Tier colors

Each tier has its own color swatch, so the board can match your brand or the mood of the ranking.

Overlay or Split

Overlay sits the board on your video. Split gives the list its own space at the top or bottom, with a video crop to keep your face in frame.

Solid or See-through

In Overlay, choose a solid board or a see-through one that lets your video show behind the rows.

Square or Column tier labels

Show tier labels as separate square boxes, or as one solid column down the side of the board.

Images only, or images with names

Each item can have a picture and a name. Switch on "Images only" when your subtitles already say the names.

Reveal animation

With "Reveal Items Animation" on, each item pops up as you mention it, then drops into its tier. Turn it off for a quieter board.

Size and position

Pick a board size, move it up or down, and set the size and position of the reveal so it lands in a clear spot.

Items you control

Move an item to another tier, rename it, change its picture, remove it, or add a new one at the playhead.

Find the visual without leaving the editor

Every item on a Tier List needs a picture. Jupitrr lets you find it inside the editor, so you skip the download-and-upload loop.

Search web images per item

Open an item and search the web for its picture. Pick a result and it is on the board, no saving files to your desktop first.

Auto Images

One click fills your items with a picture from web search, then you change the ones you want.

Stock Assets

Search stock images and video for the rest of your video. Paid plans include Getty Images and iStock stock.

Your own uploads

Upload a logo, product shot or screenshot when the right picture is one only you have.

Web image results come from the open web, so their rights vary by image. You can filter web results by license, and you are responsible for confirming you can use an image, especially in ads.

The full Jupitrr edit is still there

Tier List is a format on top of the normal Jupitrr editor, not a separate tool. Your talking-head video, transcript and timeline stay the same.

Hook text

The topic of your ranking goes into the hook at the top, and you can rewrite it like any other hook.

Dynamic subtitles

Your subtitles keep their style and timing, and work alongside the board.

B-roll when you want it

Automatic B-roll starts off so the board has the screen. You can still add B-roll clips where a moment needs one.

Music and sound effects

Add background music and sound effects the same way you would in any Jupitrr video.

Timeline and transcript editing

Trim, cut and edit from the transcript as usual. Items keep the moment you mention them.

Switch or remove the format

Change your mind and switch to another format, or remove it, from the Formats tab.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Tier List video?
A Tier List video ranks a set of things, such as tools, products or tactics, into tiers from best to worst while the creator explains each verdict. The board fills in as the video plays, which gives viewers a reason to watch to the end.
How do I make a Tier List video?
Record yourself talking through your ranking and upload it to Jupitrr. Choose Tier List as the format, and Jupitrr reads your transcript to place each item in its tier at the moment you mention it. Adjust the tiers, pictures and layout, then export.
Can I customize the tier names and colors?
Yes. Rename any tier, change its color, and add or remove tiers to keep between two and six. Jupitrr starts from S to D, or from the verdicts it hears in your video, such as "top tier" or "waste of time".
Can I use images and text for ranked items?
Yes. Each item can have a name and a picture. Turn on "Images only" to show pictures without names when your subtitles already say them.
Can I choose overlay or split screen?
Yes. Overlay places the board on top of your video, as a solid or see-through board. Split gives the board its own space at the top or bottom of the frame, with a video crop to keep your face in shot.
Can I animate each ranking reveal?
Yes. With "Reveal Items Animation" on, each item pops up as you mention it, then drops into its tier. The setting applies to the whole board, and you can change the size and position of the reveal or turn it off.
Can I use my own talking-head footage?
Yes. The Tier List format always starts from a video you recorded. Jupitrr builds the board from what you say in it.
Can I add B-roll and dynamic subtitles?
Yes. Dynamic subtitles work as usual. Automatic B-roll starts off so the board has the screen, and you can still add B-roll clips where you want them.
Do I need to download and upload every image?
No. Search web images from inside each item, or use Auto Images to fill every item at once. You can still upload your own picture when you need a specific one.
Can I edit the generated video?
Yes. Everything Jupitrr fills in can be changed: items, tiers, pictures, layout, animation, hook and subtitles. You can also re-detect the board from your transcript or add items yourself.
