Frequently asked questions
What is an AI text to short video generator?
It turns a text prompt into a short AI video clip you can post or edit further.
Can I turn text into YouTube Shorts or TikTok clips for free?
Yes, you can try free; eligible new accounts may receive signup credits when the offer is enabled—check the signup dialog.
Do I need to upload an image?
No. Text-only works; a reference image is optional.
Is this the same as CapCut / InVideo / Kapwing text to video?
Same search intent (text → short video). We focus on prompt/image → AI clips plus an optional canvas for storyboards; we do not bundle on-site voiceover and captions.
How do I go from a full script to multiple clips?
Split the script into beats, generate each shot, or use the canvas storyboard flow on /ai-video-generator.
