Pictory
Pictory turns text, blog posts, scripts, slides, URLs, audio and recordings into edited videos with AI visuals, avatars, captions and realistic voiceovers.
About this tool
Pictory is an AI video creation tool for people who need to produce videos from existing material rather than film new footage. It accepts many starting points: a text prompt or script, a blog post or web page URL, a PowerPoint deck, images, screen recordings, podcasts and other audio, or existing videos, and assembles an edited video automatically.
Generated videos mix AI-made imagery, avatar presenters, subtitles and lifelike synthetic narration, including ElevenLabs voices in 29 languages, with stock footage from Getty Images and Storyblocks. Higher tiers raise voice minutes and stock access, add a team workspace for sharing assets and collaboration, and enterprise plans include custom voices and AI credits for images, videos and avatars.
