Paste in any article, blog post or URL and turn it into a polished video in minutes. No cameras or editing software required. Add natural narration, visuals and captions, then share it wherever your audience watch.
Key featuresArticle-to-video features
Turn any link into a video
Enter any article URL or upload the text, and the converter extracts the key points. The AI analyses the page, structures the content and creates an outline, working like a URL-to-video process that turns written content into a finished video without any setup.
Turn written content into a script
Long articles rarely work word-for-word on screen. The converter rewrites your text into a tight, spoken script, then lets you refine tone with a simple prompt. A built-in video script generator and connected AI tools keep the structure clean from the first draft.
Narrate articles in any language
Give your article a clear, natural voice without hiring a narrator. When you add an on-screen presenter, AI lip sync matches the avatar’s mouth movements to the narration. The AI voice generator lets you choose from over 300 natural-sounding voices and customise pacing, emphasis and emotion across more than 177 languages and dialects.
Automatically matched visuals and transitions
Every key point is paired with a relevant visual, so your video never feels static. The converter adds stock footage, AI-generated scenes, transitions and on-screen text that follow your script. Choose a visual style or template, then use image-to-video tools to animate still images for a polished video.
Subtitles and social aspect ratios
Captions increase viewing time and make videos easy to follow without sound. The converter adds clear subtitles automatically and exports each aspect ratio for YouTube, TikTok and Instagram. A reliable subtitle generator optimises short-form clips for social media feeds.
Applications
Writing a post and then filming a separate video doubles the work. Create a video from the article you already published with a YouTube video generator, and turn articles into engaging clips that win new subscribers.
Newsrooms and creators cannot film quickly enough to keep pace with trends. Paste in a breaking news article and publish an attention-grabbing TikTok video within minutes, whilst the story is still generating shares and views.
Marketers waste hours rebuilding the same message for every channel. Convert one article into marketing videos that feature your brand kit and logo, so a single piece of writing optimizes a full campaign.
Updating printed guides means reshoots and slow roll-outs. Upload your documentation to create a clear training video for your team, making onboarding videos quicker to produce and easier to update.
How-to posts can be dense and easy to skim past. Convert a guide into an educational video with an intuitive editor and AI-generated visuals, so complex topics become an engaging video that people finish.
English-only content leaves international audiences behind. Convert your article once, then use a video translator to publish the same video content in more than 177 languages and dialects, so audiences in every market hear the message in their own language.
