An AI video generator turns a prompt or script into a finished video, and oVideo's Shorts tool does it in one pass: it writes the script, narrates it in one of 12 languages, adds AI images in 12 styles, gameplay or satisfying clips and word-by-word captions, and exports a 30 to 90 second 9:16 MP4. Rough ideas become vertical videos built for daily publishing instead of weekend editing sessions. For longer stories, Story to Video goes up to 5 minutes on the Creator plan.

Answers
Frequently asked questions
- What does an AI video generator actually automate?
- An AI video generator automates the slow first pass. In oVideo Shorts it rewrites your prompt or text into a short script, splits it into 4 to 15 scenes, draws an AI image for each scene (or places gameplay or satisfying clips), narrates every line with an AI voice and adds word-by-word captions. You get an editable 9:16 draft that you can refine and export as a 1080p MP4.
- Is there an automatic video maker that does everything from one prompt?
- Yes, for short videos. oVideo Shorts takes one prompt or topic and automatically writes the script, picks the visuals, records the AI narration, syncs word-by-word captions and assembles a 30 to 90 second vertical video. You can still edit any line or scene before export. For a story with recurring characters of up to 5 minutes, Story to Video does the same on the Creator plan.
- Does oVideo turn a script into stock footage automatically?
- No. oVideo does not match stock footage to your script automatically. Each scene of a Short gets an AI image in one of 12 styles, or the whole Short plays over gameplay clips (Minecraft parkour, Subway Surfers and more) or satisfying clips. If you want a stock clip, you can swap one into a single scene by hand in the editor. Narrated stock footage videos of several minutes are not offered.
- Can I still edit the draft after generation?
- Yes. In the oVideo editor you can rewrite any narration line, regenerate a scene image or put your own photo into a scene, and pick the caption style and a background track. Most people only fix the hook and a few scenes before exporting. Everything runs in the browser, and paid exports are 1080p 9:16 MP4 files with no watermark.
- Is there a free AI video generator worth using?
- Most free AI video generators limit resolution, add watermarks, or cap output at a few seconds. On oVideo the free plan has 0 credits: you can preview one Short (the first 2 scenes drawn and voiced, no export) and make 2 AI images, 3 subtitle videos and 3 split screen videos. Exporting a Short needs a paid plan from $10 a month, with no watermark. The free plan is not available in some countries.
- How much does an AI video cost on oVideo?
- Credits are charged when you generate. An English 30 to 60 second Short costs 82 credits with AI images (68 in other languages) or 34 with gameplay or satisfying clips (20). A 60 to 90 second Short costs 139 or 49. Starter ($10 a month, 400 credits) covers about 4 English AI image Shorts or about 11 gameplay Shorts. A single 5 second AI clip costs from 30 to 130 credits, depending on the model.
- Can oVideo make long videos?
- Not 10 minute narrated videos. Shorts run 30 to 60 or 60 to 90 seconds in 9:16. Story to Video makes multi scene videos from 15 seconds to 5 minutes on the Creator plan ($40 a month). A single AI clip from one prompt runs 3 to 12 seconds, depending on the model.
- Can I use my own voice in an AI video?
- No. oVideo narrates Shorts and Story to Video with AI voices from a list of ElevenLabs voices you can preview before you generate. You cannot record, upload or clone your own voice. If the video has to be in your own voice, record it yourself and add word-by-word captions with the Subtitle Generator, which takes uploads of up to 10 minutes.
- What makes a good input for AI video generation?
- A strong input has a clear hook, one outcome and three or four specific beats. Shorts rewrites pasted text into a short script, so concrete facts, names and numbers survive better than vague themes. Keep each idea to one sentence, and check the first generated line, because it becomes the hook viewers hear in the first two seconds of the video.
