1-min video, ready in ~1 minVideo made by our app
Script
The brain weighs just three pounds, yet it uses 20% of the body's energy…
Our app made this video of about a minute from a plain-text script, in about a minute: you paste it, click Create video and our AI draws and narrates every scene. Nothing edited by hand. Longer videos take a few minutes more.
Five steps, and only the first three need you.
Paste your script, or write the topic and choose a length from 1 to 15 minutes: our AI writes the script and you can change every word. Writing it is free. No idea yet? Our free YouTube video ideas generator gives you three.
A whiteboard video, where a hand draws each scene as the voice speaks, or an illustrated story. 22 looks, 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Shorts, and background music if you want it.
Natural AI voices in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Arabic and Hindi, with several accents; on a paid plan they can read calm, normal or fast. Or narrate it yourself.
Our app splits the script into scenes, draws each one and narrates it in sync. You don't touch a timeline. If you want to change a scene afterwards, you can.
A Full HD MP4 with captions, plus three title options, the description with chapters and tags. On a paid plan, connect your channel once and publish or schedule it from our app; on any plan, download it and upload it in YouTube Studio.
Nobody filmed, drew or edited any of these. Press play with the sound on: this is what you download.

Yes. That is exactly what our app is for: whiteboard and illustrated story videos narrated by a natural AI voice or by you, with no camera at all.
Yes. YouTube allows AI-assisted videos and they can be monetized. What it doesn't monetize is mass-produced, repetitive or reused content, so give every video its own script and its own point.
No. AnimatedBoard works in your browser. You don't download anything, record anything or edit on a timeline.
From 1 to 15 minutes per video, in 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Shorts. You can also join several finished videos into one of up to an hour.

Our servers do the upload. You can connect a TikTok account the same way. On the free account, you download the MP4 and upload it in YouTube Studio.
