No more manual stock footage searching

Finding appropriate B-roll for a 3-minute video typically takes 30–90 minutes of searching stock libraries. oVideo's AI analyzes each script segment and selects matching footage in seconds — for the entire video at once.

All stock footage fully licensed for commercial use

Every stock clip in oVideo's library is licensed for commercial use — including monetized content, paid advertising, and client deliverables. No licensing audits, no takedown risk, no per-clip licensing fees.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the AI stock footage matching?
For clear, descriptive script content, AI matching is accurate 80–90% of the time. Abstract or highly specific niche content may require more manual swaps. The one-click scene replacement makes corrections fast.
What stock footage library does oVideo use?
oVideo integrates with multiple professional stock footage libraries containing millions of clips across every subject category. All clips are fully licensed for commercial use in any context.
Can I upload my own footage to use instead of stock?
Custom footage upload is available on Creator and Pro plans. You can replace any auto-selected stock clip with your own footage — product images, brand visuals, or personally recorded clips.
Is stock footage from oVideo licensed for YouTube monetization?
Yes. All stock footage in oVideo is licensed for YouTube monetization, TikTok Creator Rewards, Instagram monetization, and paid advertising. No separate licensing agreement is required.
How is AI stock footage selection different from a stock library subscription?
A stock library subscription gives you access to footage — you still have to search, curate, and assemble it manually. oVideo's AI selects, times, and assembles the footage into a complete video automatically.
