No rewrite, no summary

Blog to video, narrated word for word

Most blog-to-video tools rewrite or summarise your post before recording it. Paste it into Script to Video and MakeAIVideo reads your words verbatim, so the message you published is the message that lands on screen. Each paragraph becomes a beat, each beat becomes a scene, and the voiceover ties the whole article together.

Verbatim narration.
Your blog is read exactly as written, no rewrite or AI-generated summary.
Scene per beat.
Each paragraph maps to its own scene, from real stock footage or generated in the visual style you pick.
Captions baked on.
Word-by-word captions timed to the voiceover and burned into the export.

How it works

How to turn a blog post into a video

  1. Step 1

    Paste your blog post

    Drop the article into the script box. Headings and paragraph breaks signal pacing, so the pipeline can match each section to its own beat. Your words are read verbatim, not summarised or paraphrased.

  2. Step 2

    Choose a voice, style, and aspect ratio

    Pick a narrator from the curated library of natural AI voices and a visual style (cinematic, anime, claymation, more) that fits the tone of your post. Set the aspect ratio for where the video lives: 9:16 for Shorts and Reels, 16:9 for the on-page embed and YouTube, 1:1 for feeds.

  3. Step 3

    Generate the narrated video

    MakeAIVideo records the voiceover, builds a scene per beat, times word-by-word captions to the audio, and adds any background music you pick, ducked under the narration. Most articles are ready in a few minutes; longer posts take a little more.

  4. Step 4

    Edit or post as-is

    A watermark-free 1080p MP4 lands in your library, sized for the platform you picked. Open the editor to swap a scene, re-roll the voice, or restyle captions, or post the default output and embed it back into the original article.

Or start from a link

URL to video: blog to video from a link

Want a short cut of a long post instead of the whole thing read out? Open Article to video, paste a link and press Read page, or paste the text yourself. It picks the spine of the article for a 30 to 90 second video, and uses only what is in your text. Nothing is invented or added.

Start from the URL.
Read page pulls the article text in, so you can trim it before you generate.
Nothing made up.
Facts, names and figures come from your post and nowhere else.
Short by design.
Pick 30, 45, 60 or 90 seconds for Shorts, Reels and TikTok.

All included

Best practices

Tips for turning a blog post into a video

Trim the post before pasting

Long blog posts often have intros, asides, and CTAs that don't need to be in the video. Cut what doesn't carry the story; the spoken version should be 30 to 90 seconds for social, three to five minutes for YouTube.

Front-load the hook

The first sentence of the pasted text becomes the opening line of the video. Lead with the most interesting point, not the throat-clearing intro you wrote for SEO.

Break paragraphs into shorter beats

Each paragraph maps to a scene. Splitting a long paragraph into two shorter ones gives the pipeline more visual changes and keeps the pacing tight.

Name visuals where they matter

Where a specific image would land harder than a generic scene, write the visual into the text. 'Picture a smartphone screen showing a notification' steers the scene generator more than 'on your phone'.

Pick the aspect ratio for the destination

9:16 for Shorts, Reels, TikTok; 16:9 for the embed on the original article and YouTube; 1:1 for square feed posts. Captions auto-fit each safe area, so picking up front avoids re-rendering.

Re-render in a second ratio for cross-posting

The same pasted blog can render in 9:16, 16:9, and 1:1 from the same source. One article, three platform-native cuts, no rewriting.

Blog to video FAQs

How a published post becomes a narrated video, what it costs, and where it can go next.

Something else? Visit the help center

How does blog to video work?

You paste your blog post into the script box and MakeAIVideo generates an AI voiceover over real stock footage or AI-generated scenes, with word-by-word captions timed to the narration, then renders it as a finished MP4.

Will it rewrite or summarise my article?

No. Script to Video narrates your blog verbatim, so the message you published is the message that lands on screen. The pipeline pulls visuals and pacing from your text but the spoken track is exactly what you wrote.

How long does it take to turn a blog post into a video?

Most articles are ready in a few minutes end to end. Longer posts take a little more, and the finished MP4 lands in your library when it's ready.

What formats and aspect ratios can I export?

1080p MP4 in 9:16 vertical (Shorts, Reels, TikTok), 16:9 landscape (YouTube and the on-page embed), or 1:1 square (Instagram and Facebook feeds). Pick the ratio before generating; captions auto-fit each safe area.

Is there a watermark on the export?

No. Every export is a watermark-free 1080p MP4. Watermark removal is never an extra charge.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $9 a month, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial that includes 350 credits. A video uses credits per second of finished video, all in: voiceover, scenes, captions and export. A 30-second post narrated over stock footage is about 112 credits, and a 15-second video with AI scenes and voiceover about 324. The app shows the exact credit cost before anything is made, and credits you buy never expire. See MakeAIVideo plans and pricing.

Can I monetise the videos on YouTube or use them in client work?

Yes. Videos you generate are yours to use commercially, including monetised YouTube, TikTok, Reels, ads, and client work. See the full terms.

Can I edit the video after it generates?

Yes. Open the finished video in the built-in editor to regenerate a scene, re-roll the voice, or restyle the captions. The app shows the credit cost of a re-render before you confirm it.

Do I paste the article text or a URL?

Either. For word-for-word narration, paste the article text into the script box, which gives you a chance to trim intros, asides, and CTAs that don't need to be in the spoken version. The Article to video tool can also start from a URL: paste the link, press Read page, and it pulls the text in for a shorter cut.

What's the difference between blog to video and prompt to video?

Blog to video narrates the article you already wrote, verbatim, using the script-to-video engine. Prompt to video drafts everything (script, voice, scenes) from a single line. Use blog to video when you have the words; use prompt to video when you have the idea.

How is this different from other blog-to-video tools?

Most tools rewrite or summarise your blog before recording it, which loses the voice you wrote in. MakeAIVideo can read your post verbatim, builds a scene per beat, and exports a watermark-free 1080p MP4 you can embed back into the original article.

What happens when I run out of credits?

Nothing is lost. Your account and finished videos stay exactly as they are, and your plan's credits reset on your next billing date. Run out? Add credits any time, from $5.
