Instagram AI video generatorReels from a topic, a clip or a trend.
oVideo makes Instagram Reels three ways. Shorts turns a topic or script into a narrated 9:16 Reel with AI visuals and word by word captions. The subtitle generator adds styled captions to a clip you filmed. Put Yourself In swaps you into a trending video from one photo, keeping the motion and the original sound.
