AI video generator: from document to narrated explainer
Jellypod reads your source, writes the narration, and draws a scene for each beat. Sales teams send it as a leave-behind. Educators assign it as a lesson. L&D teams replace a written SOP with it.
Want your own pages on screen? Use voiceovers. Vertical and under a minute? Make a short.

Pick from 16 visual styles
Jellypod draws each scene for the line being spoken, in styles from whiteboard marker to claymation, and animates up to 10 of them. Apply a brand kit to keep colors and logo on brand, or preview every style below.
Cast up to four narrators
Cast one narrator for a lesson, or up to four characters for a conversation, in any of 121 languages. Use a library voice, a designed voice, or your own voice clone.
Edit any scene
Captions track every spoken word, in a caption look you choose, so the video works on mute. Change a line and only that audio regenerates. Redo one visual with a note, or swap in your own. Starting from something else? Try script to video or URL to video.

FAQ
What does the AI video generator make?
A narrated explainer from a PDF, slide deck, document, URL, audio file, script, or prompt. You pick one of 16 visual styles (Almanac, Atomic Age, Blueprint, Chalkboard, Claymation, Crayon, Flat, Gouache, Paper Mache, Pixel Art, Retro Comics, Sketch, Stickman, Toy Bricks, Watercolor, and Whiteboard Explainer) and an orientation. Jellypod writes and voices the narration, draws scenes timed to it, and renders an MP4 with word-synced captions.
Can I try it before I pay?
Eligible plans start with a 7-day free trial. The trial includes 5,000 credits and needs a payment method. It may not be available in every country or to every user. Cancel from your billing settings before it ends and you are not charged; otherwise it converts to a paid plan.
How long can a video be?
Choose 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, or 25 minutes, up to your plan cap: 15 on Starter and Educator, 20 on Creator, and 25 on Business and Enterprise. Upload a finished script and Jellypod sets the length from it.
How many credits does a video use?
30 credits per minute of narration, plus 7 credits per generated image and 20 per generated video clip. Rendering, re-rendering, and downloading are free.
Should I make a video or a voiceover from my PDF?
Make a video when you want new illustrated scenes. Make a voiceover (PDF to video or PowerPoint to video) when your own pages should stay on screen.
Can I edit the generated visuals?
Yes. Regenerate any visual with a note, or replace it with your own image or clip. Revise a line of narration and only that audio regenerates.
Can I use the videos commercially?
Yes. You own the videos you create, and every paid plan includes full commercial rights. Jellypod does not use your content to train AI models.
