How the AI joke generator works
Write your story. Shutap turns it into a bit — hook, setup, tags and a button. Read it off the teleprompter, shoot it as a scene, or take the screenplay page. Then post the best one to a room.
Turn your own story into a bit
Write what happened. Get a bit: hook, setup, tags and button.
1. Write your story
One box, any story: the meeting that should have been an email, the text from your mom, the roommate's girlfriend who never left. More detail means a better bit. What they actually said, word for word, is usually the funniest part.
2. Shutap removes names and places
Before anything is saved, names, addresses, places, phone numbers and emails are taken out. Only the cleaned text is kept, so the bit is about the situation, not a person someone could look up.
3. Get the bit
Shutap writes your story as a bit: a hook for the first two seconds, a setup that tells it straight, tags that keep it going, and a button to end on. Several drafts are written and ranked so you see the strongest one.
4. Pick your format
Teleprompter: full-screen scrolling text to read to camera. Scene: the bit laid out beat by beat for a POV or skit. Screenplay page: formatted like a script, with characters and action.
5. Film it or post it
Shoot it for TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts, take it to an open mic, or post it to a room — office, work, family, school, live or social — where people like, comment and follow.

Tips for a funnier bit
Give the specific detail, not the summary: the exact text, the time it happened, the object involved. Say who did what. Leave out real names — Shutap removes them anyway. If a bit feels thin, add what they actually said and run it again.
Safety
Bits go at the situation, never at a real person. If what you write reads as a crisis, Shutap writes nothing and shows where to get help instead. Shutap is entertainment, not therapy or advice. 18+.
